Stormy Night

Picture of the Day - October 20, 2018

Cyclonic storm system dimly lit by a distant sun. Instead of being made of water, this storm and its clouds are made up of dust particles. The planet is a Mars-Like world with a thin carbon dioxide atmosphere and covered in red-colored iron oxide dust

Desert-like moon orbiting a large gas giant. This is the same world as the skylines from the previous post.

Colorful Titan-Like world with seas of liquid methane and a surface thriving with methane-based life, which give the planet it's unique coloring.

Space Engine System ID: RS 8550-3584-8-206537-286 8 to visit the planet in Space Engine.

Stormy Giant

Picture of the Day - November 17, 2018

Large gas giant with a turbulent atmosphere and numerous cyclonic storm systems. The plant orbits a red dwarf giving the planet an orange tint.

Crowded Worlds

Alien moon and its parent gas giant, looking towards the sun. This system is located within one of the densely packed globular clusters orbiting Triangulum’s center.

Cratered surface of a small burnt dwarf planet. Fissures run through the surface from the core cooling and the crust shrinking.

Its been a while since I showcased an entire star system on here, so the next several sets of pictures will be all the planets in this one system that I am going to name the “Insight System” after the newest Mars lander. Many more picture to come.

Above is a preview pic of the system. This is a binary system, so the planet’s night sides are all faintly illuminated.

O’Srius System - Post 3 (Stunning World)

Here we come across the smaller component of a double planetary system, being the 9 and 10th planets from the star. This planet is by far the most visually stunning world I have come across in the 6 months of playing space engine.

The world is roughly the same size as Earth, but only 0.58 times the mass. The surface is covered in liquid nitrogen oceans and nitrogen ice-caps. The planet has a surface temperature of 68 K or -337 °F. The atmosphere is composed of nitrogen and argon with a surface pressure of 0.095 atmospheres. The surface has a nitrogen cycle, much the same as Earth has a water cycle.
