| SUMMARY | ||
| → | Earth-like planet orbiting as a moon of a gas giant — with a little extra surprise. | |
| DESCRIPTION | ||
| → | ||
| → | I discovered this extremely rare configuration during the Distant Worlds 3 expedition. An Earth-like planet orbiting as a moon of a Class IV gas giant already unusual on its own. The real surprise is that the Earth-like world has a moon of its own, and that moon is landable. This moon orbits so close to the Earth-like that it appears to be record-worthy: the distance is around 12 Mm (depending on where you land), which is barely 0.04 ls. As an exploration‑focused player with over 3,500 hours in the game, this was a true bucket‑list discovery for me even now I can hardly believe I found it.
