So want to find them sorts of far out planets. i'm interested in the atmospheres they have. yet to come across any my self. Did you scan it?

I was feeling lazy, and busy hunting ELWs so I'm sorry to say I didn't scan it.

Finally, one for the bucket list!

And a bit more AW goodness:

2 AWs in one system:

1 huge AW around an L star (first for me):

Not sure how unusual this is, but I found a ringed water world rotating around a neutron star! Can someone tell me if this is common or not? I'd doubt it is but not 100% sure.

Here's the system showing the neutron star.

And here's the water world. Pristine reserves too! Nice!
Can't wait to turn this in to Universal Cartographics!

I was on my way to the Roncevaux Crossing and noticed that I was running into more close binaries than I had in a while and also more quad systems, then I encountered this:

I'm currently exploring the nebula NGC xxxx (forgot number, some 2500 ly west of sol). It has lots of class O stars (blue giants). Funny enough the description states that these stars rarely have ages > 10 million years, but most I found showed ages a lot higher than that (50-100 million years).

Speaking of weird: This whole nebula has given me a very strange feeling. Super giant blue stars, orbited by many other stars (instead of planets). And all of the time you have the red background of the nebula. Makes for a very eerie experience, tbh. I'll be glad if I leave this place and can explore "normal" systems again :)

That actually may be why you have such old blue giants. Read up on the blue straggler phenomenon. Blue giants can be "recharged" if they eat another star...and it sounds like there are lots of them around to devour. :D

I've seen a few of those. They might be Starkiller Bases, since the icy body must be somehow sucking up a lot of heat to keep the surface frozen. Here's one with a diameter of 19800 km, only 35 ls from its M-class star. Like yours with 500 °K surface temperature and a good 2.5 g at the surface. The fine dust in the atmosphere might be particulate from the sublimating ice?

It's a pain driving on though (we really need spiked tyres as an option for going out on the surfaces) and I couldn't at first get back into the ship - kept sliding back out! I'd think that the ice on the surfaces of such bodies would be somewhat crunchy and brittle from gas escaping bubbles in the ice.

I'm fairly new to both the game and exploring, so I don't know what constitudes as "weird", but I did stumble upon these small planets, tidal locked 50Mm apart.

Sorry for double posting but I fumbled the posting a little. Small typo, the two planets are actually only 5Mm apart, meaning the Proclaimers could easily walk the gap between then. I also ran into this shortly afterwards, surely the least visually pleasing planet I've found.



AAAARGH!!!
