Inner Moons List

Well, that's a list Thank you!

Of the mentioned systems I would specifically note two:

Blaea Thae JX-S c4-2 -- it is of rare type where moons are located inside the inner ring. And the ring itself seems pretty massive. In my experience such rings tend to look spectacular

The second one is Coelachi. It is in the Bubble and thus is very easy to visit. What looks kind of strange to me about this particular system is that only moon 3c is mentioned by Elite Observatory as shepherd, while 3a and 3b should also be.

Regarding the latter one, likely I didn't scan all the moons as it was in the bubble (I usually ignore bubble systems).

OK, so, Coelachi

3a and 3b are actually a binary (is this the first binary shepherd moon ?)
3c is a single body

But yes, they're between the A and B rings.

Here's Blaea Thae JX-S c4-2 1

And you are correct that the moons for 3 are within the first ring

If you want screenshots for all the others, let me know and I'll grab them for you.

Coelachi is, of course, more famous for being a Generation Ship star system. I hope you visited the Phobos while you were there?

I visited all the Generation ships in one evening. Maybe that's where the scan came from !

A gap of ~1.3 million km between the two rings. The outer ring is about thirteen times as wide as the inner with about a sixth of the mass; it's thin enough to be difficult to spot.

The A moon is almost touching the inner ring.

Oooh, a Ring Hugger. Nice find

 

[Alkibiades]

All from my logs. The tripple a system is a poi, mors et vitae. It has 2 bh, 1 ns, 1 el, a ringed star with the second largest rings currently known. And sheppered moons. Aaaand its a green system.

I constantly keep my eye out for moons like this, but have yet to actually find an undiscovered one. They are elusive....

Yes, they really did seem elusive... until I started using Elite Observatory, which actively alerts you to them. Now, every few crowded systems I scan they regularily pop up now, mostly even more than one at a time.

Is the outer ring visible?

 

[Just Call Me Dave]

Eok Blooe FS-J d9-395 3a and 3b sit in the 1.8 Million kilometer gap between the rings of this Y-class dwarf. The outer radius of the outer ring is well over 16 Million kilometers and it's easily visible.

Eos Chrea LP-Z c13-5039 A 4 a, b, & c

 

[recrudesce]

Dryi Broae NG-Y d2141 12 a to g (hard to show, if i zoomed out any more the rings disappeared from view.)

 

[BradHann]

Is the outer ring visible?

I didn't actually fly over to have a look, sorry.

 

[recrudesce]

Weqo SE-T c3-10 2a &16,396.37 2b are shepherds.

Choomie NS-H c24-72

 

[recrudesce]

Greerae SL-H B51-11 AB1 a, b, c

What's interesting about this is A is a ring hugger as well as being a shepherd.
