I am sorry; I didn't mean it to come off that way. But I realize that it did - I misspoke and I apologize.
I share your excitement, CMDR.

If I tab ED out too much, it crashes the graphics layer, eventually. So I do my book keeping on a stack of post-it notes that are susceptible to being soaked with tea.
Benefit of a steam user - screenshotting with F12?
There's no way to screenshot for non-steam players?
F10 for regular screenshot, Alt-F10 for super high res screenshot, but that only works in solo.
I fn-f10 on my laptop to get my screenshot saved to file, though after six shots of ELW, i cant be bothered to collect any more - unless they look interesting (like lights showing on the dark side of the ELW).
I just make a note on my phone of the ELW names that are undiscovered, then when i return i'll sell the data & see if i still got first discovered on them
Is there an easy way to get a cut & paste of a system name to put it into Word?
I generally scribble stuff down for route planning etc, but use screenshots to create a record for my memory (interesting planets etc). I prefer Steam's F12 because it plays a sound - F10 doesn't.

Just use EdDiscovery2 - runs in the background, auto logs your systems and you can make notes in the right-hand column. Shazam etc.

good tools, but remember YOU have to check your installation to make sure your logging is switched on or this program won't work(instructions in that thread)
Earth Like Worlds with a moon are uncommon, but not unheard of. However, as far as I know, NO ONE has discovered a non terraformed Earth Like Planet with more than one moon. So if you find one with two or more then you've found something extremely rare.
Currently using BCP ( https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=76081 ), which has a Flight Log that automatically adds the system each time visited, also allows you to select if "Visited/Partial Scan/Full Scan". There's also a Notes tab allowing you to make notes as required.
The Flight Log can also be exported into a number of different formats if you require it.

Thanks, but nothing where you can select the system name from the galactic map to reuse? Shame.
EDDiscovery - just click on the cell containing the System Name, CTRL+C and you can paste the system name into whatever you like, Word, file folder names etc. Hell, you can copy and paste the entire log into Excel if you like.

Found one today.
Bizarrely I took the pic from the moon instead of the Earth-like, however I think I have it on video anyway. The moon itself was 21 days orbit so pretty close to our moon. Obviously the Earth-like must have been a bit smaller in that case, and it was - around half the size of earth I think.
Not sure what the string of stars in the background is, anyone recognise that? Been following me for a few hundred LY at least.
