No. The biggest moon 2x Earth size. (orbital period 8.8 years rotal period 11h 22min. not tidal locked) IMO the gas giant's 12 Jupiter mass the answer.

You could try to find more oddly warm planets and see if there's something they have in common.

Bingo. At just under 13MJ, it's pushing the gas-giant / brown dwarf boundary. It is also only 4 million years old!

Never found anything this extreme before. It has to be the farthest planet so far that I have found from its sun. Its moon has an orbital period of more than 1000 years and an orbit comparable in size to that of Saturn.

I discovered something interesting last night.
RG 0-0-0-1540 and RG 0-0-0-1126 (I think those are the numbers) are actually brighter than RG 0-0-0-0. So I take back what I said earlier - at least in the latest 0.9.7.4 patch, galaxies are not actually generated and numbered in descending order of luminosity, although a strong correlation does exist.
Perhaps galaxies like these were slated to be dimmer early in the generation process, but became brighter due to intervening parameters like what shape they ended up being and whether they ended up classifying as quasars.

Pics are not necessary - it's just a bunch of numbers anyway. Feel free to go look for yourself if you want xD

Has anyone found a brown dwarf that looks like this?

I have only found 1 so far. I also don't have the coordinates for it, as the game instantly crashed as i took the picture.

Green atmospheres are quite common in Space Engine.

A few odd things.

First off is this planet for which a blue star about 4.4 ly away is the brightest object in the sky (-12.27), even brighter than its own three suns combined (-11.84).


Next up is this planet, which orbits a brown dwarf that does not emit any visible light. Instead the planet gets all of its light from the brown dwarf's companion yellow dwarf. Somehow it has life.


Finally there is this star, which spins so fast that its equatorial gravity is negative. Wouldn't the gasses at the equator get flung away from it?
