High-G Hunter

[ErrorBug]

Hello Commanders.
Since my first landing on a high g planet (4,76g), I'm into the hunt.

Atm. I'm on a high g exploration again, but there is a question in my head, which I can't answer or figure out.

Are there any suntypes, which high g planets more prefer? I don't mean the 2,2G planets. I think about anything over 3G/3,5G.

If you fancy a bit of a challenge...!

not looking for challenges or known high g planets.

Right-o.

I don't think high-G landables will be associated with any particular stellar type (can't see a reason why they would be) but someone may know otherwise.

You can try Achenar 3 and HD 148937 3.

Not at home right now, can someone check how far this is from the bubble? Would like to see if the analog thruster method works up to 10g.

Not at home either, but googling that sector name seems tro indicate it's about 34,000Ly away.

Yeah think I'll pass on that one. It works up to 9g for sure.

I don't want to be rude, but this thread got a question and this isn't where are high g planets. Please don't offtopic this thread.

What's 1 extra G between friends?

Speaking personally I'd probably exclude stars smaller than class G. I've done a fair amount of exploring and I'm fairly sure I've never found anything interesting around a class M.

I'd try G's, F's, A's, B's and O's.

Note: this is guesswork to a large extent.

I have a feeling that class O and B stars have more 3+G landables than less bright/massive stars. Haven't collected any statistics really, but IIRC (need to check this later) my personal record holder (measly 5.88G) is in a system with B main, and that monster posted earlier in this thread looks like it has a B primary too.

I can confirm (without rigorous proof, of course) that the high-g planets I know are all around ABO stars. Or at least most of them.
I don't know if Stellar Forge takes this into account, but it kind of makes sense that the bigger primordial cloud makes migger stars AND bigger planets.

My thinking is the following. More sunmasses, less planets, because of the gravitation. Of course there are some outside this "rule".
It's like icy bodys. Less of them at a hotter sun.
All of my high g planets are without moons and up to the 4th planet. Didn't find a high g as 5th planet until now.

I wouldn't exclude Neutron stars/White dwarves either. I once found an Earth-like orbiting a Neutron star! (in fact it was the first Earth-like I ever found)

Disagree. I've found some very populated* large-star systems in my time in the black.



* as in number of planets.

Did a search of landable planets on EDDB with an extra column for gravity. Checked the star for the ones over 3g and they were mostly M with some K, G and a few others mixed in. Seems pretty random to me. M stars are very common, probably why they are represented the most.

I sit corrected then

Wow, The Mighty (Kyloalks DL-Y g17 4) 9.89g has been dethroned. Looks like I know where I'm taking my updated racing Courier for testing.

I came accross this some time ago, booked marked it for some reason. Perhaps it was for you.
