4 Water worlds three are terraformable

Encountered a Rufum Gourd Mollusc. This thing is quite feisty. It will move towards your ship and when it gets within 100m will unleash a shield draining attack.The attack will stop as soon as your shields are fully drained.

Lividum Brain Trees Growing on a Hillside

An old earth legend, Jason and The Argonauts, tells of a pair of deadly rocks that stood at the narrow passage between the Sea of Marmara and the Black Sea. They would clash together whenever any living thing tried to pass between them

This system is home to a pair of shepherd moons ( 1a and 1b) around Planet 1, a ringed high metal content world. Planet 1 is also a close binary pair with planet 2. The four bodies fit inside an area cleared between the asteroid belts of the main star.

The rings themselves are notable for their unusually high density giving them a solid appearance from supercruise.

The shepherd moons from which the system derives its name have slightly eccentric orbits with orbital period of 0.2days. The small difference in orbital periods and short duration means that the planets have a synodic period of approximately 8 days. The difference between the semi-major axis of the orbits is small enough that he planets should clash into each other every time they pass each other.

The moons themselves are small radius landables under 300km in radius. In fact all 4 bodies are landable so it is possible to get ringside seats to watch the collision.

There is also a possibility that Planet 2 could pass very close to the orbit of the moons and the rings of Planet 1, perhaps close enough to also collide.

Its certainly a system to watch.

ELW and Water Moon

This may seems like a very ordinary system but planets 1 (Rhubarb) and 2 (Custard) share almost exactly the same orbit but with an orbital period of 24.6 days and 15.2 days. As a result they will pass every 39.8 days. The only difference is the orbital tilt which is 88.81 and 89.38 which means there is less than a 1 degree difference between them.

The furthest possible passing point would have their surfaces 97,145km apart or 1.3 radiuses but some orbits would result in a head on collision.

On the 9th August 3306 Canonn Interstellar embarked on an expedition to observe a near miss so that a schedule of close approaches could be calculated. The planets passed so close that it was not possible to determine if they actually touched or not. However it was possible to estimate a schedule.

The next two impacts will be 27/10/3306 22:00 and 06/12/3306 17:00. These will be unambiguous.

Then on 23/06/3307 15:00 There will be a head on impact with the planets passing almost completely through each other.

The planets themselves have a beautiful shade of pink and yellow like rhubarb and custard. Local legend had it that the planets were originally red and yellow respectively but the frequent collisions have caused the colours to mix. Of course there is no scientific evidence to back such assertions.

In addition to the two gas giants there is a water world

Also known as Kepler 151

Looks like the problem is that sometimes volcanism is null instead of "No Volcanism"
