Summary:

The second Green Gas Giant which was discovered, and the first one that had its location confirmed; to date, it's one of the tiniest ones.

Notice: This POI shares the same star system with a prior existing entry in the Galactic Mapping Project (GMP). You can visit the original entry using the link below:

    Blua Hypa Glowing Green Giant (planetFeatures), Blua Hypa HT-F d12-1226

 
Description:

This Green Gas Giant is notable for being the second one that was discovered, but the first one that was reported with a confirmed location.

Several months earlier another Commander, CMDR Kelly Eldridge, published a photo showing a different green gas giant, which was the first one discovered, but she failed to note down the system and its precise location. (It was rediscovered seven years later, see its entry.)

However, this planet's system was reported, and the green gas giant's existence was confirmed by other pilots.

Besides its history, Blua Hypa HT-F d12-1226 12 is notable for some other things. First, as the identification implies, it's the twelfth body in the system: no other green gas giant has that many bodies before it. (Although there do exist green giants which have a larger semi-major axis.) Second, ever since it has been found, it's the smallest known green gas giant, with a radius of only 15,740 km. (For a long while, it was also the lightest, but two others have since been found which are even lighter.)

Visually, the planet is impressive as well: it has two large glowing bands, one above and one below the plane of its rings, and some of the cyclones are glowing green as well. There are also some landable moons circling the gas giant, and the rest of the system has plenty of bodies as well.
