Summary:

A "hot Jupiter" that's only 1.5 ls from its parent star, with a rapid orbit, and a surface temperature that's 2.5 times higher than its parent's.

 
Description:

Commanders who arrive in the Blooe Phoe LD-A d14-2 system are greeted with a curious star. The main star is a neutron star, and a class M red dwarf star is in a binary orbit with it, 17 ls away. However, only 1.5 ls away from the dwarf star, a Class V Gas Giant can be found.

In addition to the fact that its orbit is extremely close, the surface temperature of this gas giant is 6,901 K, while the surface temperature of the star itself is only 2,851 K. The close proximity of the neutron star likely contributes to the heating of the gas giant's atmosphere.

The gas giant also has a very fast orbit (3.6 hours) and rotation period (4.7 hours) as well. Because of the latter, its equatorial bulge is large enough that it's easily visible even to the naked eye.
