Pictures of the Day - December 31, 2018

Here I come a across a massive Super-Jovian gas giant. The planet is close to the boundary line with a brown dwarf and has a mass of more than 11 times that of Jupiter. It orbits a hot B-Type star that is part of a binary system consisting of a B type main sequence star and a blue supergiant. The system is located just outside of a globular cluster.

Monstrous storms rage across the planet’s atmosphere, powered not just from the warmth of two luminous suns, but also from internally released heat. A well-structured ring system surrounds the planet along with 66 natural satellites, 6 of which larger than the planet Mercury, including 1 ocean moon larger than Earth that has its own ring system.

Space Engine System ID: RSC 5581-4-0-0-300 B3 to visit the planet in Space Engine.

Planet Stats:

Radius: 71,573.62 km (11.22 x Earth, 1.02 x Jupiter) Mass: 11.06 Jupiter Masses (3,515 x Earth) Orbital Distance: 11.43 AU Length of Year: 16.33 Years Length of Solar Day: 7 hours 56 mins Gravity: 27.90 g Temperature: 720 K (836°F) Atmosphere Composition:  92.7% Hydrogen, 6.88% Helium, 0.32% Methane, 0.10% Hydrogen Deuteride

Stormy Giant

Large gas giant with a turbulent atmosphere and numerous cyclonic storm systems. The plant orbits a red dwarf giving the planet an orange tint.

From this point forward, all Space Engine posts on my pillowfort and my Tumblr page will be the same.

Here we come across a small green-colored ice giant with an active atmosphere. This planet orbits a binary pair of red dwarfs and has a small yet well structured ring system. Additionally, a system of 13 natural satellites orbit the planet, including two of which that are large enough to be rounded by their own gravity. Like Uranus, this planet also orbits on it's side.

Space Engine System ID: RS 5581-42-8-5915539-1541 2 if anyone wants to visit the planet.
