Inner Moons List

[Eahlstan]

The second ring is barely visible, but Phroi Blou IO-T B23-132 6 A and 6 B are between the inner and outer rings.

The second ring is barely visible

To be honest, on this screenshot it is almost completely invisible
Did I point to it correctly?

Spoiler

 

[Eahlstan]

Yep, there it is. And there's no angle where it's more visible
It looks like someone spilt some milk.

 

[Eahlstan]

This time with better looking rings

And one more: Synuefe TO-O b52-3 body #3 by cmdr. Enigmatic.

The third planet around the main star is a Class I gas giant that looks quite ordinary first, but features a few surprises. It has two icy rings, the outer one bearing several Tritium hotspots. A huge gap of 372.424 kilometers seperates the rings, harboring three shepherd moons. The orbit of the gas giant's fourth moon is tilted over 80 degrees in respect to the rings, providing beautiful views from its surface.

however the rings were not visible

It is definitely worth checking. Because according to the main light source and ring's size and mass it should be visible.

You were correct. Quite visible. Seems I had my systems and images mixed up. I actually had a screenshot of the rings as they were quite large, alongside a gas giant.

 

[Eahlstan]

3 bodies between those rings and a fourth body orbiting them in a way you can view the rings and bodies from it.

Also, can someone confirm a new shepherd AW at Skaude XW-Q c19-3?

I'm afraid it is not confirmed. The AW moon in this system is on the outer side of the ring.

[Mooing]

I'm afraid it is not confirmed. The AW moon in this system is on the outer side of the ring.

Seems like EDAstro is confused. I had visited the other shepherd AWs but forgot to get pictures! With this system ruled out, there are fewer known shepherd AWs than ELWs.

Here's those AWs incase anyone wants to check them out:

• Skaude AH-B d14-144
• Eol Prou XV-C d13-208

 

[Shnyrik]

Skaude AH-B d14-144

Yep. Skaude AH-B d14-144 #6a is a nice shepherd ammonia moon.

Spoiler

 

[Shnyrik]

Eol Prou XV-C d13-208

And yep once more. Eol Prou XV-C d13-208 #12a is another shepherd ammonia moon, though I see someone has allready tagged it

Spoiler

 

[Shnyrik]

And by the way, while flying back to the Colonia, I've suddenly bumped into another system with shepherd moons: Eol Prou WQ-R c19-182.

Spoiler

 

[LCU No Fool Like One]

Synuefe UX-M c9-3 body 4A is an inner moon tucked in close to the gas giant.

 

[Eahlstan]

3 bodies between those two rings.

 

[WhoCares]

Installed the Elite Observatory rather late on my last trip, and even then didn't check all reported shepherd moons, but these I did:
Phae Aim ZU-G d10-22 5, 3 shepherd moons, the first that I discovered.

Hypaa Prau OT-A c29-0 5, 5 shepherd moons.

 

[Eahlstan]

Another one...

 

[Eahlstan]

Visible from more than 5000 ls away with 7 bodies inside:
