Exploration of Pegasus Dwarf Irregular Galaxy. Look at this tiny little moon on the edge of this galaxy! Both the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies can be seen on the right and left of the moon respectively. I like to think of it as a little outpost for extragalactic explorers coming from Andromeda to Pegasus.
This is a tidal-locked world orbiting a K-class star in Pegasus. It's a temperate lacustrine terra with multicellular life on it. It's pretty warm, and the place is mostly just a desert, but here in the "evening" part of the planet you have a nice ~20℃ temperature. You get that romantic look of desert mountains and mesas overlooked by an evening sun here all day!
Vampires live on this moon. That's all I'm saying.
I found this moon right in the middle of this eclipse entirely by accident. With the sun blocked out by a gas giant nearer to the parent star, the moon is currently being (dimly) lit by it's larger parent planet.
Back to the Milky Way again. I found a few funny little things here.
On some planet with life over 20,000 light-years away from Earth, it had a singular asteroid moon orbiting pretty closely to it. It's getting flattened, so I got the impulse to give it the custom name of "Hamburger." It got a burger vibe to it.
Look at how pretty this is!!!! This planet's far more closer to Earth than the one above, just on the other side of the Orion nebula. The planet itself is also kind of a weird place. It's a superoceanic aquaria (meaning: no land), yet only has terrestrial life living on it for some reason. I like to speculate that parts of the planet have shallower waters with "terrestrial" plant life growing above the water line like reeds and such.
Sunset on a planet orbiting a brown dwarf. It's also this dim in the middle of the day as well! As fascinating it would be to go here, I think I would eventually get sick of all the orange and brown everywhere.
Imagine the waves on this planet. Seriously, that's kind of scary.
Around 8000 light-years from Earth, I finally found my first temperate superoceanic aquaria that doesn't have complete cloud cover. Here, you get to experience sunny oceans, and OH NO THE MOON creating probably the craziest tides you've ever seen.
