SUMMARY | ||
A Double Taylor's ring, with one of them having a close proximity 279km small moon only 33.2 km away from the ring! This is quite the stop if you don't want to go far from home. | → | A double Taylor's ring, a small moon only 33.2 km away from the ring. |

The close orbit moon - The Rising Runner Relatively close to the bubble, only less than 300 ly away, with a fast orbit of 2.6 hours orbiting a 39km wide ring, Body 1 A, the "the Rising Runner", has one of the most extreme orbits in the galaxy. This body is so fast that you can see a drastic change in the horizon by turning away for a couple of minutes. You can also notice the meteorites within the ring at certain times of the day, which makes this unique from other ringed bodies in the galaxy, let alone close orbits known in the galaxy. 3:48 pm photo vs 3:54 pm photo The neighbouring bodies, the Endless Senders Body 1 is not alone as it is orbited by his twin Body 2, which also displays a 15 km wide Taylors ring. The latter is so thin you need to get close to its planet to spawn, as it is not visible from afar. Both bodies orbit each other every 7.8 hours, so you can land and take some pictures while the horizon slowly changes. The rings themselves are flat lines of dust, excellent for competitions like ship races or ring speed bowling, which will require more skill than usual due to how narrow they are. As an additional note, this body is a good candidate for a long circumnavigation. | → | Relatively close to the bubble, only less than 300 ly away, with a fast orbit of 2.6 hours orbiting a 39km wide ring, lies the "the Rising Runner", body 1 a of the system. This moon is so fast that one can see a drastic change in the horizon by turning away for a couple of minutes. At certain times of the day, one might make out the individual rocks of the ring, from down on the surface. 3:48 pm photo vs 3:54 pm photo The second body of the pair also has a Taylor's ring, which is only 15 km wide. Since it's so thin, it's not even visible from afar: one has to get rather close to it to be able to see the rings with the naked eye. Both bodies orbit each other every 7.8 hours, so you can land and take some pictures while the horizon slowly changes. As an additional note, this body is a good candidate for a long circumnavigation. |
