Trojan planets are rare, finding an Earth-like planet in a Trojan orbit is even rarer. This one is perhaps the most interesting of the dozen or so currently known, with four landable moons which should provide for some excellent photo opportunities, especially from the two closest moons which are a binary pair. It is also a relatively simple system, with only two planets: the gas giant, and the Earthlike in Trojan orbit of the gas giant, so it shows off the principle of Langrange Points fairly neatly. Scenery and science while enroute to Beagle Point.
Note: A trojan is a small celestial body that shares the orbit of a larger one, remaining in a stable orbit approximately 60 degrees ahead or behind the main body.
