SUMMARY
A system with a large number of ringed T/Y stars. However, the body with number A8 stands out among them. Its rings are ridiculously huge and visible from a distance of several thousand light seconds.A system with a large number of ringed T/Y stars. However, the body with number A8 stands out among them. Its rings are ridiculously huge and visible from a distance of several thousand light seconds.
DESCRIPTION

In the chi Hydrae system, several brown dwarfs orbit the main star. Each of them has a developed ring system. But chi Hydrae A 8 stands out from their background. This star has rings of such monstrous sizes that they exceed the diameter of chi Hydrae A by about 6-8 times. The outer radius of its rings is 16.0413971539 solar radius. They are so huge that they can be seen from a distance of several thousand light seconds, like a star, if they are turned at the right angle.

Several planets orbit within the ring system: chi Hydrae A 8 a and chi Hydrae A 8 b with its closely located partner chi Hydrae A 8 b a. Outside the rings is the gas giant chi Hydrae A 8 c, which has its own rings.
