Carried over from a conversation in Fleetcom discord, what's anyone got for a top single-system payout? This is in your commander stats under Exploration.
What's your best payout?

We all know that Zulu Romeo has it. /thread 
Mine's wimpy - a mere 9.97 million. If I stopped and Mapped every single valuable planet in a particularly rich system, I might get a much higher score, but simply can't be bothered with doing that. Let others Map if they wish.
I just wish that the statistic showed me which actual system was responsible for that high-score, so I could check it out and find out just why it scored so high.

Mine is 14M and change. Never paid much attention to payouts though. My position regarding exploration is "I can't believe I'm paid for doing this!"

Well below that, only 23.3m.
I know, right?!
From my big venture to Beagle Point and back to Colonia, I had a system that netted me (IIRC, will look it up later) around 15.7M Credits (after Inara). Not too shabby 
same...7 million ..
The highest I've seen was 86 793 195 Cr from Allitnil, but that's with the LYR bonus.
Anyway, 15.7 million for me too. You can see quite a few statistics here, from this thread. The median for those who did respond after the one year was 15.6 million.
And this was with me not going after my previous high payout(s), nor flying to map terraforming candidates. Only if they are a binary WWTC pair.

39.1 million with no LYR bonus.
55.6 million, but that includes the LYR bonus.

The fact that the LYR bonus affects it already completely skews the stat and discounts those not interested in PP. Did you use that OP?
I've always found it a strange stat as it's entirely luck based, I guess a lot of exploration is, once the bump up in prices for terraformable worlds was introduced it became how many of them can you find in one system. Then the new mechanics were introduced. Before then I think mine was around 7mill, then in the beta I scanned one system in the bubble and got 7.5mill and it only had 5 planets in it. I didn't even surface map any of them.
My contribution is now 23.8 mill (No LYR) which looks like this if you're interested.

I forget the exact number, but it's around 36, I think. I spend so much time skipping things that I've probably missed several good opportunities..
Actually it's 30.6 (you can see how that got confused in my brain). Prior to the exploration revamp, my highest payout was 5.8. The "30.6" number comes from the same system, when I returned and mapped all of it. None of this uses the LYR bonus, since I don't do the PP stuff.
Here's the system:
"Undine Haven" in the GMP. It has 7 terraformable worlds, 6 of which are water worlds, hence the high value.
