Is the data under Orbital Statistics correct? It contradicts the information in the planetbox...
- Good catch. Bop's semi-major axis was increased in 0.18.2, and I believe that's when its rotation period was increased to compensate (so it could be tidally locked). The planetbox is right: synchronous orbit around Bop would require an altitude outside its SOI. — Elembis (talk) 18:19, 26 February 2013 (CST)
