Gravitational Influence
(Hill Sphere):
| 0.042 AU / 6320000 km
| Max Stable Prograde Moon Orbit:
| 0.015 AU / 2270000 km
| Max Moon Mass:
| > 10 Earths 3,4
| Tidally locked if older than:
| > 20 Gyr 5
| Estimated Bond Albedo:
| ~ 0.1 6
Notes:
1 from planet formation models of Burrows et al
2 from planet formation models of Burrows et al
3 assuming age of 5 Gyr
4 based on periastron due to high eccentricity
5 orbit may be too eccentric for 1:1 tidal lock
6 from Sudarsky et al. 2000
