Summary:

A double Taylor's ring, and a small moon only 33.2 km away from the ring.

 
Description:

The Track

Relatively close to the bubble, only less than 300 ly away, with a fast orbit of 2.6 hours orbiting a 39k m wide ring, lies the "the Rising Runner", body 1 a of the system. This moon orbits so fast that one can see a drastic change in the horizon after only a couple of minutes. At certain times of the day, one might make out the individual rocks of the ring, from down on the surface.

The second body of the pair also has a so-called Taylor's ring, which are very narrow rings, just a small fraction of the radius of their bodies. In this body's case, its ring system is only 15 km wide. Since it's so thin, it's not even visible from afar: one has to get rather close to the planet to be able to see the rings with the naked eye. Both bodies orbit each other every 7.8 hours, so you can land and take some pictures while the horizon slowly changes.

Both rings

Body 1

As an additional note, this body is a good candidate for a long planetary circumnavigation.

This system was settled in early 3311, during the early days of the Trailblazer colonization.
