SUMMARY
An icy moon with an inclined orbit offering nice views of the huge ring of it's gas giant parent, but only at night.An icy moon with an inclined orbit offering nice views of the huge ring of its gas giant parent, but only at night.
DESCRIPTION

Body 6 d is a ringed icy moon with a Nitrogen atmosphere orbiting a Class I gas giant with an outer ring over 3 million kilometers wide. The moon's orbit is inclined by over 19 degrees, offering a nice view of the rings and the three shepherd moons between the outer and the two inner rings.
Due to it's relatively low density the wide ring is very faint and can only be properly seen at night, an elusive guardian over forests of Fontanicula that grow all over the icy surface.
