DESCRIPTION | ||
→ | ||
This system has multiple close orbiting bodies, most of them are easily visible from the system's hyperspace drop point. The first planetary pair consists of a class III gas giant and a water world. They orbit extremely close to one another in just under 2 hours. However, in order for them to be lit up, one must be nearby one of the planetary brown dwarfs to switch the primary light source and illuminate them. The highlight of this system is a landable icy world in close binary orbit to a brown dwarf. With an orbit of 1.8 hours, the planet is the 8th fastest orbiting landable icy body in the known galaxy. The brown dwarf dominates the ice world's sky, noticeably moving relatively quickly as the seconds pass. The daytime temperature is surprisingly bearable, however ships in supercruise be cautious as the planet is close to the dwarf's exclusion zone. The terrain of the icy body varies wildly: Some areas have flatter terrain, whilst other spots have massive towering spires. Climbing these with an SRV can be very difficult as the surface gravity here is 1.01g. Both bodies are ~1 ls away ^ | → | This system has multiple close orbiting bodies, most of them are easily visible from the system's hyperspace drop point.
