The TARDIS on Gilly.

Gilly is a tiny asteroid and the only natural satellite of Eve.

As of update .17, Gilly's surface is buggy and dangerous to land on, most likely due to the Kraken (or a bad collision mesh). Kerbonauts land at their own risk.

Characteristics

The radius of the geosynchronous orbit of Gilly is greater then its orbit of Eve. Therefore geosynchronous orbit of Gilly is not possible.

Orbital Characteristics

  • Velocity: 509.34525790119191843171414199694 m/s
  • Synodic Period from Eve's Surface: ... hours, ... minutes, ... seconds
An unsuccessful touchdown attempt, note the landing legs clipping through terrain.
