SUMMARY
An otherwise unassuming system, has pair of icy bodies orbiting a Ringed Class 1 Gas Giant. These bodies collide infrequently but the red atmosphere on moon 2 a should make it worthwhile.
DESCRIPTION

Red sky at night, shepherd's delight. Red sky in the morning, shepherd's warning

The shepherd moon (2 a) has a red sky from its thin argon atmosphere. While the old saying had some relevance on earth in this instance the warning is of the impending collision with it's sister moon.

The moons collide infrequently with a synodic period of just over 220 days and may occasionally just miss each other as they pass.

Body 2 a also has water ice volcanism and three biological species

Bacterium Verrata - Blue $233,300
Fonticulua Campestris - Amethyst $63,600
Fumerola Aquatis - Orange $339,100

Fumerola Aquatis - Orange

The first collision will be on the 12-Jun-2023 at 14:44 and will last approximately 24 hours.
