SUMMARY
Khaki is a shade of green, right? From a distance this known GGGG appears as a fairly dull shade of green, however a trip closer to the surface rewards the pilot with some more striking colours.
DESCRIPTION

A Glowing Gas Green Giant flagged in the GEC will automatically attract the attention of many a wandering explorer; and one located in such a distant, rarely traveled pocket of the galaxy might carry even more allure. Its a long journey to get near the place for sure, but when one finally does reach this enticing system, the reward for the intrepid explorer as they approach the fabled giant is somewhat, um, disappointing...
Even a perch on the nearby orbiting moon with a prime view of the target really fails to raise much excitement...
No, the beauty of this beast lies in the finer details. One must fly well within the planet's ring and get as close as possible to the surface to view what is a wonderful display of vivid green and other swirling colours. Diamonds in the rough to be sure.
