Gas giant in close prox to Supergiant

Enroute to Mintaka, I have stopped off at my favorite location in ED, it is a giant star called 'Hyadum' it has a ringed gas giant incredibly close, once inside the rings it truly feels like you are in an alien world with a giant star in the background.

Some of these asteroids are absolute monsters, it's hard to get the scale across in 2D shots. The system is not far from SOL (around 160Ly) I would definitely recommend a visit, especially if you have a DK2, HYADUM II is nearby, unfortunately no planets are in system.

I can almost feel the awesome pouring out of these screenshots from my bland 2D monitor...

Oh, I really need the OC... and a better computer... and a good HOTAS...

It's very hard to get across the scale, I keep thinking I'll get used to Oculus, more than two months and I keep having jaw dropping moments. Very surreal seeing everything in it's actual size.

This system is beautiful, you don't even need a DK2 to appreciate it.
