Can't see the moons here, but the ring itself is kinda spiffy.

This planet has three rings, but the first two are squished together. It was 320kls away and I couldn't be bothered flying all that way for a screenie.

I am currently participating in the expedition Pegasus Run 3305, a galactic circumnavigation. The following discovery was made as a result of this expedition.

Galactic Region: The Formidine Rift
System: Hypoea Hypooe ZG-T c4-0
Planet: 2 (Gas Giant with ammonia-based life)
Notable Feature: Moon 2a between inner and outer ring of planet 2

The system was discovered by CMDR Bio-Flame, but only partially (i.e. probably an early discovery). Planet 2 and its moons were discovered by me (CMDR Erratic Spawn) on November 1st, 2019.

First picture: The white dot to the left of the inner rings is moon 2a, the ringed moon in the lower right corner is moon 2b

I recently came across this system.

Thanks to, Elite Observatory app it alerted me to what seems like 3 Shepherd Moons. Sadly I lost track and did not bookmark but once again thanks to the app I think I managed to backtrack and locate it in the logs.

I just installed Elite Observatory because of your post and let it read all logs. It seems like I missed dozens of Shepherd Moons over the last 8 months or so. I need to check them in more detail when I find the time, but wow. I am glad you mentioned the tool. Thanks.

Like all the community tools it is a great addition to have. It has not been around as long as some others so glad you have found it.
Another more recent addition if you've not seen it yet is, Visited Stars Cache.

Makes it much easier to cover new ground and see where other explorers have been in connection with EDSM data.

Thanks. I'll check it out. I know I have seen some pictures of it before, but did not follow up at the time. I am currently with the Pegasus Run 3305 expedition so the likelihood to hit a beaten path is rather small. But I am sure it will come in handy when we close in on some well-known tourist points (east, north and west of the galaxy) to avoid the worst of it. :) Because when our first part of the tour went south to get to the rim there was a time where it seemed almost impossible to find uncharted territory, since Livingstone Point was not far off (didn't go there myself though).

It's nice to see that silly little thing I made is spreading via word of mouth now :) This put a smile on my face today, so thanks !

Well let me tell you this. I am currently participant of the Pegasus Run 3305, a galactic circumvention that will take another ten months (two are already behind us). This tool makes my life as explorer much, much easier and let's me spot things that I would otherwise miss.

So a big THANK YOU to you for making this not at all silly tool. It serves one purpose and does that very well. (y) Well done.

A quick question: I have now encountered the third time that ED Observatory flags wide rings and shepherd moons. When checking the system map details the wide rings are described in detail (so it is not an ED Observatory issue) and the Orrery shows the rings and the shepherd moon correctly, but when I fly to the object it only shows one inner ring, the moon and nothing else. The first time I even tried to collide with the outer ring based on the distances given, but nothing was there. So it looks like it is not just a rendering issue, but some sort of bug.

Any insights on that issue? I did have cases where everything was alright, so it does not always happen, but I haven't yet noticed any obvious reason why it sometimes does.

Planet: Ooch Chrea MG-Y d5 3
Planet info & Orrery show the C-ring, inside which moons a & b orbit, but so far I've failed to interact with the C-ring. It is too far away from the planet to be probed, and so thin that I can't see it and haven't been able to even crash into it.

So exactly the same issues I have encountered and described above. I am glad I am not the only one experiencing it.
