After gallivanting a bit more around the outskirts of the bubble, I happened on a lovely little surprise. It's 500 LY from the bubble so just a bit too far out for my tastes, as tourist destinations go, but still an interesting sight.

HIP 95944 is one of those bright blues that is surrounded by protostars and jovians with the odd planet thrown in, tons of moons, explorers know what I mean. In this case it's mostly brown dwarves and a pair of M-types for a total of 11 stellars in the system. There's plenty of debris rings around the place to please ringwraiths... I mean ring-chasers, but the real gem of the system is how against the odds, in this maelstrom of dust and gas, an earth-like formed with perfect atmosphere (well, a little too much oxygen, maybe). And it formed as the last moon of one of the 13th body, a brown dwarf. This lucky little planet has a pretty wild sky:
