SUMMARY
A ringed White Dwarf star, orbited closely by a binary pair of a Water World and a landable atmospheric rocky body, also in a binary orbit with an M class star.A ringed White Dwarf star, orbited closely by a binary pair of a Water World and a landable atmospheric rocky body, also in a binary orbit with an M class star.
DESCRIPTION

This system, nicknamed Aurora Aqua, contains a binary pair of black holes, both of which have a number of bodies as satellites. The first black hole is orbited by a binary pair of a ringed White Dwarf star and a class M star, but another pair here is even more interesting. The White Dwarf (A 1) has a pair of moons in a close orbit to it: these are a terraformable Water World, and a landable thin carbon dioxide atmospheric rocky body.

Upon landing on the rocky moon (A 1 d), the White Dwarf's rings are clearly visible. The binary pair's orbit is inclined enough for this. As such, one can see some amazing views of both the ringed White Dwarf star and the Water World in the sky - although you have to land near the poles to see them.
The moon also has geological activity.

The M class star is the only source of light for this planetary body, and for the ring of the White Dwarf parent, giving a mesmerizing view of the Rocky Body's parent star.

A nice view of the Water World, just 0.04 ls from its partner:

The ringed White Dwarf star is a DC type, with a rocky ring that's only lit by its red dwarf star partner. The ring has a diameter of 5.2 ls, and is 2.17 ls wide.
