Kepler-1708 b and its likely exomoon.
kepler1708b.png

Here's the ssc code I used. The planet is already in Sirius_Alpha's exoplanet catalog as an unconfirmed planet. The February update should promote the planet to confirmed status (thus adding it to default Celestia), and add the candidate moon.

Code: Select all

Modify "b" "KIC 7906827" { # Kepler-1708
   Radius 63526
   Atmosphere {
      Height 1000
      Mie 0.0001
      MieScaleHeight 28
      MieAsymmetry -0.15
      Rayleigh [ 0.00095 0.00145 0.00298 ]
      Absorption [ 0.00033 0.00010 0.00001 ]
   }
}

"Kepler-1708 b I" "KIC 7906827/b" {
   Class "moon"
   Texture "venuslike.*"
   Radius 16647
   Atmosphere {
      Height 500
      Mie 0.002
      MieScaleHeight 20.3
      MieAsymmetry -0.1
      Rayleigh [ 0.00104 0.00193 0.00400 ]
      Absorption [ 0.00000 0.00050 0.00100 ]
   }
   EllipticalOrbit {
      Period 4.6
      SemiMajorAxis 743257
      Inclination 9
      AscendingNode 6
   }
   InfoURL "https://www.nature.com/articles/s41550-021-01539-1.pdf"

The planet texture reminds me of one of those early 2000 textures in old addons...
