| SUMMARY | ||
| A metal-rich moon with a highly inclined and close orbit around a ringed red-glowing metal-rich world. | → | A landable metal-rich moon in a binary pair with a ringed hellish red-glowing metal-rich world. |
| DESCRIPTION | ||
| → | ||
The main star of this system is orbited by a hellish ringed metal-rich world with vast oceans of molten rock (body 1), which forms a tight binary with another metal-rich planet (body 2) almost half the mass of Earth. The ring is tilted by about 25 degrees in relation to the equator of its parent, a weird feature that may be the result of the combined gravitational influences of the nearby main star (approx. 14.2 ls away) and the smaller planet of the binary, shifting the bigger planet's axial tilt to roughly match that of its companion while shifting the inclination of its ring system's orbit in a different way. Whatever the cause is, this phenomenon provides great views from the surface of the smaller planet. View from the surface in the morning
