Well that was fun, in an otherwise unremarkable system in the Gludgeia sector I found a small planet only 407km in radius with 5 volcanic sites (that's all I found anyway, there may be more)
Gludgeia YO-A d13 ABCD 3 D A, Major Silicate Vapour geysers, Starpos (1585.34, 260.22, -4845.03), 5,104ly from Sol;
Site 1, Lat -48.18 Lon -146.14;
Site 2, Lat 40.29 Lon -89.09;
Site 3, Lat 17.42, Lon 113.97;
Now here it gets interesting, suddenly my sites changed from chimneys and whitish smoke to small campfires and spouting lava! You can also see how close it is to my first site, only 8 degree Lat different.
Site 4, Lat -40.18 Lon -146.14;
Site 5 was to rough for landing so I only grabbed an aerial view.
Site 5, Lat 43.85 Lon -111.43;
I've been wondering why I should easily find five sites on this body, what makes it so different to all the other bodies I have searched? is it just RNG or is there some other physical reason. The only thing I can see from the planet statistics is that this particular body has a remarkably short orbital period of 0.2 days, and since it's tidally locked a really short day and night cycle. I am not sure how this compares to most of the others I have visited but just memory tells me I haven't been on a body before with a day/night cycle this short, and hence probably also one of the shortest orbital periods I have come across. I shall have to browse back through my collected data, it would make sense from a physical perspective since such a short orbital period and day/night cycle would lead to extreme tidal forces operating on it.

Well done
I wonder about this thing myself. To be honest I am having second thoughts about extra tools to find geysers, I am perfectly capable of finding volcanism with tools available now, but I thing we need answers to questions like the one before to make searching more meaningful.As for extra tools I prefer to be Columbus than a guy who buys a plane ticket to America
Found my very first "wild" (silicate vapour) geyser-site a few days ago, at Flyooe Eohn PL-W c18-1 1 a 2931.88 LY from Sol, Coordinates: -14.9838 / 170.1525.
I stumbled upon these a few seconds after leaving glide mode.

@MadRaptor
Just a heads-up, saw that the Distance SOL/Main Star column made it into the big Fumaroles list.
Wanted to update my LY/Ls Data there, but it's write protected
PS.
The Ls Distance in the tables is currently listed as "Distance from Parent Star".
So far, I assumed the "Distance from Main Star" was the key one and that's the figure I always used (preventing i.e. a 10 Ls listing of a Planet - but that happens to have a B, C, D or E Parent Star that might be 740000Ls distant from the Point of Arrival, making it rather unfeasible)
---------------------
*yay* that only took like 20+ attempts and countless hours on this Planet!
1st time I've resorted to a systematic Line-Search to "box in" entire areas of Interest. Lots of mileage... but it was gifted with success
Note : this find almost "announced" itself with a Mineral Deposit found @ -2.31/-141.35, a mere ~25km from the Geysers.

Thanks. I'll take a look at it and get i sorted out. I forgot certain columns I locked up and adding things in that area locked them as well. Plan on that being updated with this Sundays update. Possibly sooner depending on how this weekend goes. Been out of sort the last couple days. Stress' of life and all. As well as the whole alien encounter taking up my time, trying to get that one good shot. Haha. Anyways. Again, thank you and will get that fixed ASAP, also the distance from star might be removed. While it is helpful, with a simple honk of the system and glance in the map the info is given to you. I'm more interested in Distances from SOL, as well as galactic coordinates.
Those should help me in my future endeavors as i'll have an announcement in regards the Galactic Mapping Project as soon a things get finalized.

Repped - for the excellent images first and foremost!
So I am going on a short trip and have decided to update my finds before leaving. I am in the Rosette nebula, a rich hunting ground for vulcanism and, I hope, life!

Still exploring here so expect more from the Rosette nebula. Fly safe all.

My friend Cmdr Arnul decided to tackle the organics, he is the person who made it from bubble to Colonia in about 3 hours and 15 minutes, so not to be messed with
So after the weekend he managed to find some, I know there were not so many discovered so far so I decided to drop you the coordinates in case somebody is looking for patterns. He will probably write here bit more about it, but until he does, here are the places:
Found by Cmdr Arnul (The Unstoppable )

I can personally vouch for his findings, just decided not to copy entire posts with photos, he may want to do it himself at some point.

1826ly from Sol, 14,6ls from Arrival point
According to the map Silicate Vapour "Geyser" ..appears as Fumarole (chimney). Found 2 sites on this HMC world which is 730km in radius. Again it is one part of a twin-world, it has an orbital period of 0,4d, a rotational period of 0,6d and it is tidally locked. I found the sites on the side facing the other twin. Also looked there (A 1) for volcanism but only a short time and without success.
#1) Coords: -58.07 / 109.11
#2) Coords: -30.17 / 91.19

Already 4 days ago I found another site in HD 38563C. Time from supercruise exit to first sighting was less than 6mins.. however the next 2 or so hours I tried to find a second site without success. Here like at the previous sites a graphical glitch let some stones and crystals appear "floating" some cm above ground.

As you all might know, last Sunday's update did not happen. I've sort of been full of E3 stuff at the moment so I've put the update off till this coming Sunday. In all reality, though, it'll most likely be updated tonight before I go to bed. Also, it seems that there haven't been a lot of submissions to the contest so I figure one more week, and I'll try to advertise a bit more as well, but if it's still not a lot of submissions I'm just going to pick my own personal favorites and give them to the GMP. Now as far as material stuff. We will still be collecting them and I'll make my little map but I've talked with the GMP and they already have all the info we need in our search. Of course I will be working with them to see if we can make that info a bit more clear but I've got your guys' backs.
Thank You and for those most recent finds, good job guys. Keep it up
