This evening I've been cruising around Eta Crusis, just around the corner from Jameson. The system has a couple of ringed brown dwarfs that I wanted to try and mine. Got me some Serendibite which is rather profitable (~950K CR / T). It's generally a beautiful system well worth a visit. These brown dwarfs are interesting. Sort of half star, half gas giant, with no hydrogen fusion. Because of a low surface temp of 363 K (90 deg C or 194 deg F) they hardly emit light and this one, due to a very bright nearby main star, casts a shadow on the rings. Pretty neat:
I also found this Olympus Mons lookalike:
I like they way you keep discovering new tiny details in this game. Have you ever noticed the glow of the exhaust nozzles of the forward thrusters, slowly fading away after you shut them down?
