| DESCRIPTION | ||
| → | ||
This system hosts a close binary consisting of a water world (body BC 1) and a high metal content planet (body BC 2), with the water world having only 0.10 Earth masses. They orbit their common barycentre in just over 18 hours and the cloudless water world is clearly visible from the surface of the HMC world. view of the binary from space

| → | This system hosts a close binary consisting of a Water World (BC 1) and a High Metal Content planet (BC 2). They orbit their common barycentre in just over 18 hours, and the cloudless Water World is clearly visible from the surface of the other planet. As it's relatively light (with a mass of only 0.1 Earth Masses), the two orbit each other fairly closely, and the blue planet looms large in the other planet's sky.
Mirroring the stark difference in appearance and properties between both bodies, the pair is named after the two Norse goddesses Rán and Jörð, the former representing the sea, the latter, the earth.
