SUMMARY
This system offers the rare sight of a M type star dominating the sky of an rare Hot Thin Silicate Vapour Atmosphere landable.
DESCRIPTION

Body D1 in this system is a rare Hot Thin Silicate Vapour atmosphere landable, there are less than 300 of these so far discovered in the galaxy as of 3310. (Less than 0.1% of all landable planets)
It sits unusually close to an M Type star, only 2.5ls away. At this distance the sun dominates the sky, almost filling half the sky of the planet.

The most memorable part of the system is the view from the surface of the planet, where the light from the star is viewed through the lens of the Silicate Vapour Atmosphere, filling it with yellow and brown light.

The Temperature on the body exceeds 1700K, meaning any trips outside SRV should be kept short.
The Gravity of the body is 1.47G, so caution is advised on approach.
