SUMMARY
A gas giant with several life-bearing moons around it, including two Earth-like worlds, one of which is ringed. A tourist beacon is also present here.A gas giant with several life-bearing moons around it, including two Earth-like worlds, one of which is ringed. A tourist beacon is also present here.
DESCRIPTION

The highlight of this system is a set of life-bearing moons all orbiting a single ringed gas giant (A 1): two Earth-like Worlds, one of which is ringed, two Water Worlds (which are candidates for terraforming), and a smaller Gas Giant with Water-based Life.

The first two moons are Water Worlds, which are candidates for terraforming. They have thick atmospheres (28 and 36 atm) made up mostly of nitrogen, but also argon, and traces of ammonia.

Farther out from these two are the Earth-like satellites. The two are quite alike, with one significant difference between them: A 1 c has rings, made up of metallic asteroids. Both moons belong to the category of "higher gravity and low atmospheric pressure" Earth-like worlds. They have average surface temperatures that are 40 K higher than the two Water Worlds, thanks to the greenhouse effect of their atmospheres. Both contain significant percentages of water vapour - without that, these moons would have likely become too cold to be habitable.

Moving on from the first gas giant, there is a wide variety of other bodies in the system, including two landable thin atmospheric moons. Unfortunately, those two don't have much in the way of surface life.

The final gas giant is in a binary orbit with a heavy Ammonia World, which has an extremely thick atmosphere. Its clouds almost completely obscure its surface.

A tourist beacon called "A Promise of Life" was placed above A 1 d during the 3307 Saud Kruger campaign. It transmits the following message when scanned:

Tourist Spot 0739
This tourist beacon was set up in September 3307 as part of the Saud Kruger Exploration Campaign in conjunction with Astrogator Tours.
The location was identified by Commander GeckoNova who made the following observations: A system in Hawking's Gap that contains two Earth-like worlds, two terraformable water worlds and one ringed gas giant orbited by a moon hosting water-based life. The submitted believes conditions on these worlds wouldn't be too different from Sol's Earth thanks to the high gravity and G-class parent star.

In addition, two large high metal content worlds shepherd moons in orbit around a gas giant further out in the system. The last major planet of note is the ammonia world orbiting the last gas giant in the system.

The system was originally discovered by CMDR Chilly-Solids.

Both Saud Kruger and Astrogator Tours extend their thanks to Commander GeckoNova for contributing to the success of this initiative.
