Just too funny a read
Did my first " real" exploring the last three days and guess where i've been to. Gladly i was just passing through. Still believe i read that name too :-D

Yes - Systems that were given "discovered by" retroactively (that had been visited before the tag was implemented) all got tagged by the discovery scanner.
I know for certain because my first Gamma CMDR has tagged LHS 2552 right next to Founders World... That guy lived for a few hours and never surface scanned anything.

Thank you for the confirmation.

Seagull Nebula?
.
I better hot tail it home again so I can sell all my scans for that nebula and grab that first tag.

This is why, when I'm exploring, I head out to a big lump of black.
If I'm unfortunate to hit a route someone else has explored, It only takes a couple of 30ly jumps up or down to be in a completely unexplored region.
Plenty of unexplored regions still only 500 ly or so out from inhabited space.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRGHHHHHHHHHH
BTW, i came back before reaching Seagull.
On my way there i found this
And i don't know why, i felt the urge to sell the data.

All in the name of !!SCIENCE!!
I got a mail from Interstellar Cartographic Institute. They told me Jackie Silver, Nutter, Glynie and Trav Eler are not to be threatened. Then my gun license was invalidated. I can't carve my name in your hull it seems.
That's good.
.
I moved on from there... From Seagull to Rosette nebula, and then on again to the Jellyfish nebula.

"CMDR Astronut reporting.
Just found my first 'earth-like' but I can't take credit for first discovery. It's not in your list so here are the details:
system: H97B 9199
planet: A 8
full designation: H97B 9199 A 8
distance from Sol: 1282.91 LY
first discovered by: TRAV ELER"
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

What is your jump range? I have 33, and towaed the seagull had to detour up. Especially Rosetta looks like it's outside the milky way.

I've got just under 30ly jump range. When I was going to the Seagull from the Horsehead nebula, I had to go along the Perseus arm before I could cross the expanse and come back to the Seagull.
.
but from there to the Rosette was no problem.

Cool. I guess sometimes the shorter distance between A and B is not a stright line.
Now don't be like TRAV ELER and leave me a moon to name in Rosetta.
No problem...

I just skirted around the nebula taking lots of big pictures. Never actually explored inside it.
That 'trav eler' name has been popping up a lot for me too. I'm still in the Orion neb but I'm itching to move on and further out. On this particular trip I haven't entered a single system that hasn't got 'first discovered' tags.
Rosette nebula is well within the Milky Way.
<edit>
Way-hey, just found my first neutron star but I can't claim first discovery. That honour goes to Star Falcon, another name cropping up frequently at the far side of Orion neb.

I started to find first un-named system few light yeart past the orion cluster, so don't give up.!!!!
If you want to pass by OOCHORRS WG-W C18-1 there's a system worth some credit, with an earth like.
After discovering it, i rushed back to civilized, but there are many unmaed marvels there, since your are closer than me, name them all!!!!!!! At least we will break TRAV ELER madness!!!!!

I had enough pew-pew (4 hours), vacation is over, i feel better, pills worked, where's my ASP? Off i go again.
I'm on a run to Sag-A and once I got a couple hundred LY from the frontier I've very rarely encountered explored systems. Lately I've been tagging giant stars, noticed one on the map while plotting a long course and took FOREVER to get to it, only to find it explored... But there's a TON of them in this region. I was truly expecting to find the path pretty well beaten
but of the maybe 400 systems I've been through I bet less than 50 of have been explored.
Maybe I'm just lucky...

Anything that's straight up/down/left/right or on a direct path to somewhere has been mapped out. 860LY is nothing - that's only around 30 jumps - you can do that in an evening. (I've just come back from the Orion nebula in a day without rushing).
You need to get further out, and well away from a "logical" direction, and you'll start picking up undiscovereds. Even if they are, take an advanced scanner, and check the system map before moving on. I found an earth-like and two water worlds in systems which someone had raced through and not scanned anything but the initial star.
Its disheartening to see all the cherry picked systems. All the Icy Planets are left alone but the juicy ones are scanned.
Not found by proper explorers if you ask me. Anyway, I got back today from a short 1000ly jaunt straight down and found two totally unexplored and loads with the Icy Planets all left unexplored.
