Perhaps this might help shed some light on this vexed question:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPgo6s1lBbw.Or perhaps not.

It was never a plan for Frontier to let that happend. So it will never jump there, no one will untill they unlock it with "future content". *Doubt meme*
This gives the current plan.https://i.imgur.com/AOkLjml.png
I was also wondering about that - it shows up when I drop out of supercruise and if I try to boost to it I can never catch it.
I
Try plotting to a point that is about half the distance. That always works for me. Also, your jump filters might be making it more difficult for the system to do the plotting. Check that too.
I still don't understand the processes by which this was formed.
They think it is mostly from rebound effect.

Water in slow motion gives you some kind of idea of how it forms:

Doh! Thanks for pointing that out. The dates were so close I completely ignored working out which year 3303 *actually* was.

To be fair, you would think the most recent jumps should be at the top (i.e. the current list would be reversed).
Often plans go into the future, in which case the opposite makes sense. Or something, I dunno.
Thanks.I can see how a small cone might be formed from this,although i'm still not convinced,but the summit of the one pictured was,iirc,almost at the same height as the lip of the crater,which is what first drew my attention to them in the first place.(there were more than one ,forming what seemed to be a rough circle.i'll check to see if i got anymore views.)Anyway,something to think about.

I can imagine that a slow and heavy impact might create a wave that results in the soft-powder surface of the larger body to have a ring... with the center being the remnants of the other body.
Sort of like how throwing a a lead weight at high speed into a sand pit would have a shock-wave ring yet the lead weight would still protrude higher than the ring.
Then add thousands of years of cosmic dust dropping on top of everything when there is no atmosphere. It would tend to smooth eveyrthing out into softer rounded peaks.
I dunno.

Not really - complex craters are to be found extensively on earth and in space. Have a read of this short entry:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_crater
... or if you want to know more in-depth (see what I did there?
) about crater formation:https://www.lpi.usra.edu/publications/books/CB-954/chapter3.pdf
(from Traces of Catastrophe)
(GF is a geologist.)

No... those are called sink-holes or caldera.
......
There has been extensive science carried out and published regarding impact crater formation, considering all sorts of environment and materials both of impactor and impacted surface. Maybe look at the links I provided?

That was it
Let's assume for the moment that i checked the links and remained unconviced by the explanation for whatever reason (mainly height and diameter) in this specific case.(Airless planet,low gravity).One would normally expect the ejecta from a meteor strike to be impelled outward from the point of impact.It may well be the remnants of the meteor itself covered in the sands of time,in which case it must be a bloomin big one and worth a few bob in ther right quarters.
