DESCRIPTION

This system, nicknamed Beauty at the Heights, is located at the Western edge of the Empyrean Straits, slightly over two thousand light-years above the galactic plane. (Hence the name.) It contains a trinary black hole set, with the notable locations orbiting the barycentre of the second and third black holes. This part of the system contains a total of nine terraformable planets, among them a Water World and an Earth-like World.

BC 7 is the white dwarf star that is the highlight of the system, and which contains some of the rarer types of bodies. A total of 8 bodies orbit this ringed white dwarf.

These include one of the few examples of a trinary moon system on an inclined orbit around a ringed white dwarf star. All three of the bodies are candidates for terraforming.

Moving along the other satellites, BC 7 f is an Earth-like World. It also has a nested moon (BC 7 f a), with an orbital inclination of 26.33 degrees. Its surface is landable, and there are nice views to be seen of both its parent and of the white dwarf star.

The next is BC 8, which is a wide-ringed K class star. Its rings span 44,392,256 km, and weigh a total of 10.1 quadrillion MT, putting them in the upper ranges in that aspect.

BC 8 d is a gas giant with a high orbital inclination of 84.60 degrees. However, as of 3310/12/08, the gas giant is opposite of the galaxy, and with little illumination, its rings are expected to remain barely visible for the next hundred days.

BC 8 c is another point of interest because its terrain can be extremely jagged. While this might make it difficult to find a suitable landing site, it also makes for excellent opportunities for extreme mountain climbing. Sadly, the ring is barely visible from this moon's surface, as it orbits in nearly the same plane as the rings do.
