SUMMARY | ||
A landable planet only 4 light seconds away from a white dwarf, crossing its jet. | → | A landable planet only 4 light seconds away from a white dwarf, moving through its jet several times a day. |
DESCRIPTION | ||
→ | ||
Mimir's Inferno is a small landable planet (A 1) which orbits a white dwarf star close enough that it crosses into the star's jet. The planet completes an entire orbit in only 0.4 days (9.6 hours), so one needn't wait long to see the spectacle. Of course, this also means that there's a limited time window for landing and walking around on the surface. (Bear in mind that the average surface temperature is 793 K.) The main star of the system, the white dwarf, forms a binary pair with the second star, a red dwarf. It orbits close enough that it's well visible from the surface, and at good opportunities, Commanders can see both stars from the surface at the same time. This system was first discovered by CMDR Mark Wells, who sold the data to Universal Cartographics but didn't report anything about it to anyone else. | → | Mimir's Inferno is a small landable planet (A 1) which orbits a white dwarf star close enough that it crosses into the star's jet.
