| → |
Phoo Chreou PX-L d7-61 13 received the nickname "Grand Gulliver" for its record size as a landable atmospheric world. This helium body has a radius of 14,372km and is 10.1988 Earth masses in weight, but only poses 2.01G of gravitational force on its rocky surface.
The planet is rich with geological features as fumaroles, gas vents, and lava sprouts pepper the rolling hills. Its primarily helium composition offers a special view at sunrise which is unique to this atmosphere type.
This phenomenon allows pilots to see a strong yellow horizon with a dark blue sky, offering picturesque scenery that was documented in this video of landing and first footfall on Grand Gulliver: Video of planetary landing on Grand Gulliver It sits large and in charge at exactly 38,000ls away from its A-class star. What untold mysteries can we expect from a planet so monstrous, and will we ever find a landable atmosphere larger than this one?
