Summary: Planet C 1's orbit drops into the exclusion zone of a White Dwarf (DC) Star

Description: Located in a Black Hole System. Planet C 1 drops into the Exclusion Zone of a White Dwarf (DC) Star every 2.5 days for a short time. The view from the ground is incredible, and as the planet soars past the star, the lensing effect is a sight to behold. This is very similar to the original Planet of Death near Colonia, but with a longer orbital period. Excellent for more kinder and safe approaches. WARNING: This star can only be observed from the surface in an SRV. Failing to dismiss your ship would result in the ship destruction. If on foot, bring lots of sunscreen and first aid packs.

Timetable approximating when the planet will reach perihelion next, based on a witnessed perihelion on 2024-09-22 - 15:08:08 UTC 2024-09-25 - 02:01:25 UTC 2024-09-27 - 12:54:43 UTC 2024-09-29 - 23:48:01 UTC 2024-10-02 - 10:41:19 UTC 2024-10-04 - 21:34:37 UTC 2024-10-07 - 08:27:55 UTC 2024-10-09 - 19:21:13 UTC 2024-10-12 - 06:14:31 UTC 2024-10-14 - 17:07:49 UTC 2024-10-17 - 04:01:07 UTC 2024-10-19 - 14:54:25 UTC 2024-10-22 - 01:47:43 UTC

Would be good to get an orrery view so we can work out a schedule.

Video of a transit on 30th April 3310, beginning about 20:30 UTC: https://youtu.be/t-l9GuHwV0U Timestamped orrery view (a few hours later) uploaded. [Edited: 2024-05-01 11:09:28]

Quite the view, hard to predict what side to land on the get it in full view.

10,3201° / -7,8702° seems to be a good landing site providing the same view shown in Just Bear Li's video. Since the planet has a 2:1 spin-orbit resonance, the star's position in the sky should always be the same after a full orbit.
