SUMMARY
System contains a gas giant with a moon so close to the rings that they enter its orbital occlusion zone, offering stunning views and curious gravitational effects.System contains a gas giant with a moon so close to the rings that they enter its orbital occlusion zone, offering stunning views and curious gravitational effects.
DESCRIPTION

SCHEE EAEC DY-C B5-0 1 A offers some remarkable features due to its close proximity to the nearby gas giant's icy rings, which extend into the moon's orbital occlusion zone.

From the planet surface, one can observe the rings slowly rotating, though in truth they are moving impossibly fast. The individual icy mineral formations that make up the rings can be made out even from the ground.

They are so close, one could even be forgiven for imagining that they could reach out and touch the very edge.

View a video of the rotation as seen from the surface.

Due to the gravitational forces at play, entering into the rings causes entry into normal space to often result in the pilot remaining in the moon's gravity well, which at this distance causes the rings to pass by remarkably fast, as can be seen in this video footage captured by the system's original explorer.

However, if the pilot manages to enter the rings gravitational pull, they will be treated to the sight of the nearby moon rotating and orbiting past at an atypically quick rate.

The rings of SCHEE EAEC DY-C B5-0 1 themselves contain several hotspots which include a variety of void opals, grandidierite, alexandrite, and even valuable tritium which are all ripe for mining.
