I've seen a couple, but yours has much better lighting than most of them. Nice find.Found this bubblegum giant. Not sure how pink is pink enough, but this is the pinkest I've found.

You masked off the system name but left it exposed in the ring information.Thought this gas giant really looked like a water world

Nice finds.
By the way, does anyone know how rare an landable ice planet with such notable gravity?

Whoa!The "Elite Observatory" app helped me rediscover old finds. I do not know why, but I did not mark this very unusual planet when I found it at first time. I found it again when I scanned the logs. I'm quite far from this place now I'm in a hurry there, that once again look at it. High gravity 5.68G, and... and... It is special. I will not say, otherwise I will have to drink a few shots!

Sorry but how the hell can a planet be hotter than a star?! All of physics must have gone to pot!!
Edit: I am an idiot. The star must be waaay hotter. Sorry 'bout that.
Hotter than the surface of a star, which is a lot cooler than the center of the star. Still 12,615k seems a bit excessive. Most rocks melt at around 1,200k but rocks don't really boil, I suspect the key point is the atmospheric pressure, which is over 11,000,000 atmospheres, and just like water, the temperature at which rock turns to a gaseous state increases with pressure. I suspect the figures are off somewhere, but with over 12,000,000 atmospheres the calculation is probably correct, the rock would likely remain in a solid state, but the figures the calculations are based or are probably dodgy.
I wouldn't trust the numbers completely though, the Stellar Forge has been known to throw a few dodgy numbers around, but there are known hot exoplanets. KELT-9b orbiting an A class star is over 4600K, well over half the temperature of the suns surface and hotter than many smaller stars, so if it was orbiting an L type dwarf it would be hotter than its star, in fact hotter than M's and also many K's, but then it gets it heat from the fact the A class has a surface temp of 10,000k so if it was orbiting a colder star the planet wouldn't be as hot, still it would be interesting trying to land on a really hot planet!
