I have some brown dwarfs, Luhman 16 AB, (link here)
which are similiar in mass, about 30 times that of Jupiter. The
worlds, which I can't really call planets *or* moons without
feeling incrediby conflicted, all rapidly orbit in hours, not
days. They lie beyond the roche limit, where tidal forces
would tear them apart. These are all placeholder names; the two
brown dwarfs and seven worlds would be renamed by the future
colonists, I'm sure! In a nod to Firefly I decided to change K.L.
for Kevin Luhman to Kaylee. The largest world is named for
Luhman, of course.
I didn't get an animation for this done, yet...
