Not a record but i thought it was interesting...
I have found quite a few irregularly shaped gas giants but this is the first time i have seen an irregular planet.

and a couple of shots from my recent visit to the Bubble Nebula

its a beauty ferris, I was planning to go their next, time to change my destination.

It's strange how randomly ED seems to generate oblateness in objects, I'm sure everyone's seen these brown dwarves rotating very rapidly, with periods measured in tens of seconds, yet they seem to be completely round (or like that one star in one video I forget which and where, it seemed to rotate in just a few seconds). Then we get a planet with 2 hour rotational period and suddenly it's oblate.

I blame the forces created by the gravitational pull ;-)

There is still plenty to explore outside the bubble, but looks like most of the systems inside the nebula have FD tags.
I get the feeling most POIs such as nebulae will have already been heavily visited.

Kalpa · Feb 26, 2015

W-well... there's probably thousands of procedurally generated nebulae, I doubt every single one of them have been searched yet. But yes, it is almost a certainty that all the easily visible ones have been explored rather thoroughly.

Kalpa · Feb 26, 2015

I got tired of systematic record logging, went to hunt some rarities instead in the near vicinity. This one might well be beatable.

ps. Seem to have hit the 'bad zone' for route calculations again... ugh... now I just want to get out of here

can someone else go back to core to finish all these 'closest to sagittarius a*' records?

CLOSEST GAS GIANT WITH AMMONIA-BASED LIFE TO SAGITTARIUS A*

(This will be very easy to beat, there's probably one within 5LY of Sagittarius A*... but I seem to be on my way out of the core now because of frustrations about the route planner... argh)

Also... do our record keepers have opinion on the issue of CLOSEST B-TYPE STAR TO SAGITTARIUS A* ?

in my experience the nebula´s further out are still up for grabs, I carry three fully scanned nebulas 8 an 14 k out with me atm but tha thing isa you need to go farrrr out

my experience with the route planner is that you move about 100 ly in the direction you came fro and you should be good again. All records are posted

I'm happy to see the pictures being added to the book, but I would like to see some attribution on the pictures - either a mention of the CMDR name on the image, or a page listing all the page numbers of pictures and the appropriate CMDR name next to them please.

yep we should be able to do that will have a look at it this weekend, we've got a big job working on the next stage of this project so hopefully we will have time

hopefully no screw up this time.... ;-)

added to book! noo one of my records gone

not to sure what to do with you G/F star first one posted with a bug, ticket it and keep you eye on it and get back to us in future and we'll see what we do with it.
In the meantime i'll be keeping my eye out for similar bug

Dont see that one as terraformable; wrong pic?

I think I will ticket the F/G star indeed.

found a big'un. A new quatruple crown wearer. Pulverizer of three of those 4 previous records:

almost considering ticketing this one too... really way out there values....

LARGEST ROCKY PLANET
S171 23 A 5 WITH A RADIUS OF 20,340KM CMDR TRAV ELER

HEAVIEST ROCKY PLANET
S171 23 A 5 WITH 417.0638 EARTH MASSES CMDR TRAV ELER

HOTTEST ROCKY PLANET
S171 23 A 5 WITH A SURFACE TEMPERATURE OF 30,216K CMDR TRAV ELER

ROCKY PLANET WITH THE HIGHEST SURFACE PRESSURE
S171 23 A 5 WITH A PRESSURE OF 1,555,357,056.00 ATM CMDR TRAV ELER

heavyness compared to size comes from high metal content at 17.2% I guess

HIGH METAL CONTENT PLANET WITH HIGHEST METAL CONTENT
HIP 115424 B 1 WITH 36.4% - CMDR HARPER QUALE

If you are recording first discovered info it should go to CMDR Gerakis

Patau82 · Feb 26, 2015

added latest records

poster gets the record but you can do what you want with it

carazvan · Feb 26, 2015

Well have some new records all from close to home (within 100Ly of SOL) with some fun names:

SMALLEST TERRAFORMED BODY
MERLIN WITH A RADIUS OF 2,236KM - CMDR NAVZARTON

LIGHTEST TERRAFORMED BODY
MERLIN WITH 0.0400 EARTH MASSES - CMDR NAVZARTON

(the name of the system is ROSS 154)

TERRAFORMED BODY WITH MOST MOONS
ALPHA CAELI A 6 WITH 2 MOONs - CMDR NAVZARTON

Last but not least a fun memory for alpha/beta users

COLDEST METAL RICH PLANET
AULIN 3 WITH 119K - CMDR NAVZARTON

.. take that Mercury with your 402K temp

carazvan · Feb 27, 2015

Was checking out some more of the terraformed bodies and I noticed that the listed system ACHENAR does not have 3 terraformed planets (it has 2 terraformed and 1 water world).
Here's another system then with 3 terraformed planets

SYSTEM WITH MOST TERRAFORMED PLANETS
INTI WITH 3 TERRAFORMED PLANETS - CMDR NAVZARTON

The system also has another planet that's in the process of being terraformed but not sure how we want to handle that (aka include it in the terraformed group or terraformable group)
