Ah right, well, I did know about that moon, I just wasn't sure if that's what the OP was talking about.

Arg of Periapsis tells you nothing about the eccentricity (other than it's non-zero (so long as ArgPe is non-zero)), only the direction of the major axis.An orbital inclination of (-)77.7° suggests in was once a rogue Planet, that has been captured from outside the solar system and pulled in to the orbit of the parent Planet, backed up by a huge Arg of Periapsis, indicating an extremely eccentric orbit!
What am I thinking of? I'm sure there is something that tells you how far 'off-centre' an orbit is?Arg of Periapsis tells you nothing about the eccentricity (other than it's non-zero (so long as ArgPe is non-zero)), only the direction of the major axis.
SO2... When they have less than 0.01 atmsopheres, it is stated as 0.00. When there is no atmosphere it is stated as No Atmosphere.What atmosphere? It says 0.00 atmospheres. What is the atmospheric composition?
That will be the eccentricity parameter.What am I thinking of? I'm sure there is something that tells you how far 'off-centre' an orbit is?
Near enough to nothing, anyway. Such a small amount it's probably only sublimating anyway, hard to analyse (hence no composition data) and not a barrier to landing. The things I stated are such barriers. Real world explanation: too hard for FDev to model such landscapes.SO2... When they have less than 0.01 atmsopheres, it is stated as 0.00.

It may be. But when you are in the DSS and looking for delicious planets to land on, there are things that flash up that clue you in on what is landable and possibly very scenic or interested. These planets trigger those markers and the parameters indicate that this planet should be landable... but they are not, and the even though there is an atmosphere, it does not appear in the System map.Near enough to nothing, anyway.

Sounds wonderfully challening.Unstable surface? Too many rocks? Too much sinkable-into soft dust? Dangerous magnetic fields that scupper your ship's landing systems? Who knows.
Pretty sure thats what it is, it's the volcanism, its just not a planet type they've created yet with or without an atmosphere.I thought that non landable planets weren't just those with a non tenuous atmosphere but also water worlds, and those with active volcanism.
This one if it is like Io would fall foul of the active volcanism clause.
