Planet going THROUGH a white dwarf jet in a close binary system!

Go home Stellar Forge, you're drunk (again!).
Nice find though.

I couldn't even get to this one, so that wouldn't have been much use here

Wicked cool!

heat sinks in all 8 slots of a conda to get closer maybe? lmao

 

[osser]

Great find!

 

[EUS]

Great find, thanks for sharing.

 

[Rudi Raumkraut]

Great!
I want an endless GIF for my Smartphone background

 

[Sterlino]

probably the most beautiful and interesting thing i saw till now.

congratulation for the discovery.

Finally a use for all that leftover lead paint.

Michael! Stellarforge is making boo-boos again

 

[Roqinn]

Amazing find!!

It's a definite Stellar Forgery! Fake planets.

This system is insane!! This is pretty much the sight that greeted me when I arrived - that blue ring below the WD is a Class V gas giant orbiting the white dwarf at a distance of 0.4 ls, and in the screenshot it is going through the white dwarf's jet! The planet's orbital period is only 15 minutes! I'm literally recording a video of it right now - I'll post it up here as a reply when I capture a full orbital period and then I'll take a look at the stats in more details. Amazing stuff though! Has anyone ever seen anything like this (I sure as heck haven't!)?

These things do exist, it would be cool if along the way these would show the proper destruction that they are undergoing, being sand blastet apart and sucked into the star.

Amazing...
If only that planet had had a landable moon, it would have been perfect..

They should correct its orbit so it misses the jets, put ops name on as discoverer and put in a tourist beacon. New long range passenger mission.

 

[Jitkaas]

Definitely one of the coolest sites I've seen, I'd love to visit it once you sell its data

 

[avow555]

Wow, incredible find ☺

 

[Crank Larson]

Very good.

How far out from the bubble are you?

 

[William H. Bonney]

awesome, i never find cool stuff

 

[malenfant]

How far out from the bubble are you?

Very far

Don't worry, I'll post the system data when I've handed it in!

Well, the fact that it's orbit takes it through the jets is what actually makes it worthy of a tourist beacon. Change it's orbit, and it's just a gas giant orbiting really close.

The direction of the jets are regenerated each time you jump into the system (they are generated roughly perpendicular to entry direction) as you may remember they changed this because so many cmdrs were getting cooked. It is likely next time someone goes there the jets might not be intersecting the planet.

That being said. Amazing find. Im jelly.

Wait ... are you saying that if two players jump into the same system they'll each see the jet going in different direction? (potentially)
