SUMMARY
→	An icy ringed landable moon orbiting a wide ringed Class I GG at a near perpendicular angle, to create a stunning view from both the surface and close orbit.
DESCRIPTION
→	This Class I gas giant has two icy rings (one wide), two shepherd moons, and an icy ringed landable moon. ![Big Top Circus Act 2](https://i.imgur.com/uIJWblq.jpg) Orbiting 6.4ls away from the GG is the landable moon, body 1 C. This icy body has a neon-rich atmosphere, allowing for a beautiful view of the GG from the surface. ![Big Top Circus Act 3](https://i.imgur.com/iIG67kt.jpg) Their close proximity to each other, combined with the size of the GG's ring, creates the illusion that the rings are intersecting. And from the planet's surface this view takes up a full 1/3 of the sky. Galactic photographers will need to zoom out to get everything in one shot.
