Summary:

An icy moon orbiting a gas giant on a highly inclined orbit, almost perpendicular to the gas giant's rings.

 
Description:

This system contains a gas giant (B 6) with three rings, with the outermost one being about 3 ls wide, stretching out to 8.5 ls. There is a large gap of over 5 ls between the second and third ring, cleared out by four shepherd moons orbiting in between them.

The orbit of the fifth moon (B 6 e) lies outside the outer ring and is inclined by over 85 degrees, providing a breathtaking view of the three ring systems and of the inner moons from its icy surface.

Since the moon frequenty gets into a position directly above the wide gap in the rings, it has been nicknamed "Ice Shanty" by its discoverer after a temporary structure used for shelter that is built above a hole in the ice for fishing.
