This massive Herbig Ae/Be system contains 2 black holes and another 11 T-Tauri protostars in various orbits; as well as 18 other planets and their moons. The majority of planets in this system have relatively quick orbital periods and thus, repeat visitors will notice that this system always seems in flux.

Of all the interesting orbital phenomena at play in this young stellar system, nothing stands out more than the two moons A 7 a, and A 10 a. Both of these bodies orbit staggeringly close to their class III gas giant parents - within 0.5Ls. Additionally, their rotational and orbital periods are so swift that they are more appropriately measured in hours than in days.

The strong rotational forces have stretched both of these fast-spinning moons along their equators, so much that they almost resemble the shape of eggs rather than planets.

Both of these moons could be called 'Tidal Eggs', though the name fits doubly well for 7a. Moon 10a is just a rocky moon. But 7a stands out once again because it is a terraformable water world — and not just any terraformable water world.

At time of writing, it is the fastest spinning water world in the known galaxy.

The previous record holder, Eor Bro AA-A H505 AB 7, has a rotational period of 0.15644593419 Days, or 3.75 Hours.

The Tidal Egg makes a full rotation in just 0.124829452037037 Days, that's 2.99 Hours.

With a slightly less impressive orbital period of 5.7 Hours, the Egg and its gas giant parent dance around each other several times per Earth-day, offering consistently fantastic views.

Finally, this system is located only a few thousand LY west of the well-traveled route between Sag A* and Beagle Point, making this an easy detour for wayward explorers and tourists north of the core.
