Ring Mine - Asteroid Base

System: 2MASS J03291977+3124572

Planet:  2MASS J03291977+3124572 A2 gas giant

Station: Ring Mine (Asteroid base)

The star in this system is a class B. Its blue-white light dimly illuminates the asteroid base and its surrounding asteroids, creating a quiet, dark mood. The gas giant hulking nearby just adds to the mystique of the place. I traveled here in my Python, Haddie's Quest.
