| → | ||
| → | Body 2 isn't just any old Class III gas giant -- it is adorned with a rare 3 visible rings of varying density. All 3 rings are metal-rich. However, the real attraction is the gas giant's first moon. Body 2 a is a landable icy body orbiting at a mere 3.7 ls range and at a most pleasing inclination of -54.450°. Additionally, the moon as a thin oxygen atmosphere which adds hues of blue and purple to the scene resulting in a breathtaking view of the gas giant and its rings from anywhere on its parent-facing surface. The moon also features a relatively valuable variety of bacteria - Volu. While Body 2's rings are not officially classified as "wide", when viewed from Body 2 a the rings fill the sky, having an overall angular diameter of 72.2°! If you are fortunate, you may also see Body 3 in view, a ringed Class II gas giant nearby, as Bodies 2 and 3 are in binary orbit with each other. The system is located in the heart of the Guardian region near the Hen 2-333 / IC 4673 nebula and there are numerous Ancient ruins sites in the sector. Furthermore, you can find Brain Trees on other bodies in the system (bodies 1 a, b, c). | |
