SUMMARY
An icy moon orbiting a gas giant on a highly inclined orbit almost perpindicular to the gas giant's rings.	→	An icy moon orbiting a gas giant on a highly inclined orbit almost perpindicular to the gas giant's rings.
DESCRIPTION
This system contains a gas giant (body B 6) with three rings, the third one being over 3 ls wide with an outer radius of over 8.5 ls. There is a huge gap of over 5 ls between the second and third ring, cleared out by four shepherd moons orbiting in between them. The orbit of the fifth moon (Hypo Brou MX-L d7-0 B 6 E) lies outside the outer ring and is inclined by over 85 degrees, providing a breathtaking view of the three ring systems and the inner moons from its icy surface. Frequently getting in a position directly above that cleared out space between the icy rings, the moon is affectionately called "Ice Shanty" after a temporary structure used for shelter that is built above a hole in the ice for fishing. view from space ![](https://gram.social/storage/m/_v2/810070291426399715/549719332-a3f277/QpR3GPlUbG3s/4H10Hg0p2k76GZ2zmfDZcFqrsgRYMMtnfO3HGLme.jpg) view fro the surface ![](https://gram.social/storage/m/_v2/810070291426399715/549719332-a3f277/xxJiwt7hnuiY/XL6YCE0Bh64w5ePsAKGc9gPLne8q8UGox1AHLVUH.jpg) orrery view ![](https://gram.social/storage/m/_v2/810070291426399715/549719332-a3f277/2JieATJOLL6x/cyRR3SoUL0tZLW0boUOfLp5Ee9r6Z6yya8KuXKdy.jpg)	→	This system contains a gas giant (body B 6) with three rings, the third one being over 3 ls wide with an outer radius of over 8.5 ls.
