SUMMARY
This planet holds the current galactic record (as of 3310-12-11) for the largest landable thin atmospheric body, with a diameter of 28,744 km.This planet holds the current galactic record (as of 3310-12-11) for the largest landable thin atmospheric body, with a diameter of 28,744 km.
DESCRIPTION

Phoo Chreou PX-L d7-61 13 received the nickname "Grand Gulliver" for its record size as a landable thin atmospheric world. This helium body has a radius of 14,372km and is 10.1988 Earth masses in weight. However, its composition means that the gravity on the surface is 2.01 g - still high enough to warrant caution from pilots.

The planet is rich with geological features: fumaroles, gas vents, and lava sprouts pepper the rolling hills. As the planet is quite distant from its star (38,000 ls away), its surface is extremely cold, and no life is to be found there.

The planet's atmosphere is primarily made up of helium, although there is also hydrogen and traces of neon present. This atmospheric composition 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:
