Bagged my first Earth-like!

GreyAreaUK · Dec 21, 2016

Finally! I've finally bagged an untagged Earth-like.

But that wasn't the best bit. Because at the same time I also bagged my first untagged Neutron star...in the same system!

For obvious reasons I've obfuscated the system name

You never forget your first. Well done

Aaaaand you lucky so and so

I've found quite a few ELW's and a couple of Neutrons untagged, but never both together. That's totally awesome

Great find, Commander - well done

The first is usually the best - perhaps until you find a ringed ELW (I haven't yet and have a few dozen ELWs now).
The few seconds wait as you scan still brings that feeling of expectation though

Grats CMDR! (Don't forget to submit it to the List when you've sold the data

)

Yep, sure will.

Actually, I think I'll boogie on over to one of the Colonia supply route stations. Might be a day or so though. Would really like others to be able to visit this one.

Nice one. And it being a Neutron for your 1st is a bonus.
I've found 4 orbiting neutrons so far.
Once they patch the crash bug I can get back to business with them.

You're going to hate me, but...I just found a ringed ELW!

Well done Commander, sounds like you are in a rich vein of discovery

Arnoldo · Dec 21, 2016

You're on a roll Cmdr!! You may optimise your searching by taking a look at some of Chiggy's research notes from his extreme ELW hunting..

Fly safe out there, you're now carrying precious data!!

It took me till # 74 till I found my 1st ringed one.
You're on a roll CMDR [yesnod]

I'm on 127 and still waiting

osser · Dec 21, 2016

Actually it was 74. But I got another at # 84.
That bad luck Iain.
You'll score one I'm sure. [up]

#48 for me - and then I found 3 in that same month. With a sample size as large as the galaxy, you just never know... they're out there, that's for sure.

Still haven't found a black hole yet, though.

"Commander finds Earth-like worlds, Number 2 is going to blow your mind!"
Congrats! You are quite lucky to have such first two finds.

You have non-sequence stars filtered on?

GreyAreaUK · Dec 21, 2016

Heading for Gagarin Gate to offload this data. Hope to be there in 30-40 mins. Now, do I arrive in Open or Solo?

Good point. I don't think so, but how do I check?

osser · Dec 21, 2016

As far as the filters...go into your Gal Map, and click on the tab with the little star like things...tons of things to go through there as far as filters. Gah, I wish I had my gal map in front of me so I could give you specific directions.
