| SUMMARY | ||
| A double Taylor's ring, a small moon only 33.2 km away from the ring. | → | A double Taylor's ring, a small moon only 33.2 km away from the ring. |
| DESCRIPTION | ||
| → | ||
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.

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. | → |
