Bop is one of the five natural satellites of Jool. It is very similar to Gilly. Bop has a large crater with a white rim. Some of its mountains rise nearly 22 km above the surface. Bop hast a shape not unlike a crunched up ball of paper. This might be caused by its low gravity. The brownish color may come from solid carbon, or iron oxide.
Reference Frames
Template:ReferenceFrames It is unwise to Orbit at an altitude of under 10 km, as you will almost always encounter a mountain.
