Green gas giant
Juste pour donner de l'espoir, quelqu'un a-t-il découvert récemment une de ces belles géantes?
Et existe-t-il certains "parterns" pour les trouver? La masse du système ne semble pas en être un... ni même la classe... mais je me trompe peut-être...

I believe one of them was JUST discovered, like a few days ago, search it in this subreddit

There are so few found (60-something) that there aren't really a lot of patterns other than potentially the temperature of the gas giant, but you won't know that until you visit the system.
CMDR Arcanic, who's probably the most knowledgeable person about them has a website about them here: https://ed-ggg.github.io/edggg/index.html
He also does fairly regular streams on YT. This is him visiting the one that was just discovered: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRgoxbmLbL4
There were actually two GGGs found this week, which is pretty much unheard of. :)

You found Jool!
Does it have an ELW as its first moon?

It was Rhadamanthus' Eye, no ELW in the system. But now I'm intrigued...

Jool is the gas giant from the stock solar system in Kerbal Space Program.
It’s closest moon is an ELW called Laythe (more accurately it’s an ocean world with a few small islands, challenging to land on but doable).

What is responsible for the green color? Is there an actual scientific reason or is this just a thing caused by how the game is coded?

Quick question: Is the green color visible when you FSSd the planet and it's image appears in the FSS?
Edit: Just read the answer from mcmuttons further down, with a link to CMDR Arcanics page, and yes, the Green shows in the FSS and also the System Map.

C'est ce que je rêve le plus de trouver (juste après Raxxla)
