SUMMARY
A helium-rich system with 2 sets of trinary orbital configurations, both having a landable ringed planet. This was also the site of the Magellan Experience Expedition's Christmas Event in 3307.
DESCRIPTION

Out towards the tail end of the Perseus Arm in the Achilles's Altar region is a system with 4 Helium Rich Gas Giants. 3 of which are located in 2 different triple orbit configurations.

The larger of the HRGGs in the last configuration has a significant axial tilt compared to the other two. With their close distance, and at the right time and angle, this could make for even more fantastic scenery.

The closest two planets orbit in 11.5 days, with the outer planet taking around a month to orbit once.

Due to the primary component of the system being a B class star, most ringed landable bodies here have bioluminescient anemone on their surfaces.

The closer triple also has similar orbit periods of 12.2 days, however the view of the other bodies from the landable ringed planet is not as impressive.

This system was discovered the day before Christmas Eve of 3307, and the Magellan Experience Expedition coordinators chose it as their meetup point to celebrate the holiday, which was held on planet B 9.

This point of interest's namesake comes from how the overall color palette of the three are reminiscient of gingerbread cookies.
