    The Quest To Find Raxxla

    ...a neutron star, and a collection of assorted pink bodies. I wanted to try some ideas with having your FSD charged and doing things with black holes, but nothing really came out of that (assuming the toast would be something like "a white star, a neutron star, a black hole", ???... - well...

    ship interiors - will they happen

    ...is no game at all. I'm not going to bother giving you other examples of scientifically unrealistic features in the game besides this one: Black Holes don't do anything harmful to players. Where's the scientificially accurate spaghettification, death and more from the most notable stellar...

    The Quest To Find Raxxla

    Possible. However, I've played to death with black holes and their lensing lately thanks to NGC 7822. The practical behavior I don't believe would actually allow it, so if there were any wormhole mechanisms in play, it would probably require a little more than just straightforward lensing. And...

    The Quest To Find Raxxla

    ...NGC 7822 trip: After some browsing of the local neighborhood I realized two things: 1. It's probably the biggest single collection of black holes and O stars in one place there are like 18 black holes in close vicinity. I'm going to drop into every one of them, see what that brings. There...

    Anyone elsenoticed Thargoids moving from Titan to "black holes"?

    ...made those sounds, the outer vents opened and I saw scouts as well as Ints moving away from the Titan and leaving space through those "black holes" they usually arrive through on planets they attack. I do not remember having seen that on other Titans (perhaps they only do that when not being...

    HIP 63835 - Josie Rosa installation

    I spent some time in this system and I figured a few things out. First of all, Josie Rosa installation orbits effectively C/D twin black holes. The thing about black holes is that each of them is a gravitational lens, so if you put two of them together like we have in this system, you get a...

    Anyone have a personal bucket list you hope to find out in the black?

    GGG with ringed ELW moon would be epic - I didn’t even know that anything could have an ELW as a moon! Sounds like it’s time to head out on a trip soon :)

    ED is a pretty much a simulator, so why can't we have more control/keybind options?

    ...while having troubles on 0.5g, WWII style combat, short weapon range, slow projectiles, fixed star positions, "gentle" neutron jet cones, black holes, materials and goods with different densities taking up the same cargo space, suits power capacity measured in the same units as ship (both in...

    ...not really like comets. They're on different layers. Rogue planets are notably defined as a star class along with Main sequence classes, black holes and nebula. That table is full of things you can see on the galmap. Some of them are also in systems as bodies but the existance of nebula on...

    Alec's guide to "interesting" colonisation systems and stations.

    The Quest To Find Raxxla

    No. Not with little ones. I still want to know if something hides like that within Sag A's . I dont think anyone has bothered at getting close to the pushback barrier. Would take like almost a week in real time. But if something is hiding there. That would be interesting to know. I dont think...

    The Quest To Find Raxxla

    A note on black holes and things they do. Turns out trying to get them to show other things is tricky at least. First of all, they have multiple layers of skybox reflections (you can see that in some of those shots above), and that means it's very hard to actually see anything useful. As you're...

    Alec's guide to "interesting" colonisation systems and stations.

    ...next one is an absolute banger of a system, one of the most bizarre I've seen in the context of colonisation (although I'm not big on black holes or neutron stars). This system has everything Vela Pulsar has and more. First of all, let's take a look at this first black hole surfing the...

    how to find which systems i've "discovered"?

    You say this, I've been bouncing around EDSM for a few hours and I'm yet to find it. But then that isn't the tool you mentioned, I'm so out of the loop. I don't know if I've used EDDisco, it rings a bell, but I might be thinking of EDDB. I'll have a goosey and see what's the happy haps, thanks.

Some blackholes would have a permanent link to a certain chain of systems. Others would be very random. There could even certain mass...

    I think the spiraling stars part references our own spiral galaxy, or perhaps Andromeda, which is also a spiral galaxy.

    Listing Codex bugs

    ...and on the other extreme, we have the various Anomalies in the Wepaa sector (see here), which are supposed to have a planet type requirement, but they only require Black Holes - and as such, the 500 ly sphere they're in is chock full of them. Well, a few more Codex / NSP bugs to heap on the pile.

    Visited. Yes, it's a rather "blinding" entrance. Separately, in a similar manner, many Centauri systems are weird with black holes and neutron stars.

    ...that would be a candidate is 27 Gamma Cassiopeia. I am not sure how you can jump from there to Sol though (without a neutron jump, which wasn't a thing for technology in the 22nd century). I also can't remember when they added black holes to the game, I dont think they were available on release.

    Its the 3rd of the Reith lectures (Black Holes), in the book 'Theory of Everything' the part on LGM-1 starts on Page 47. I also have a paper somewhere he did with Sir Roger Penrose on pulsars, will try and dig it out. Looking back now i wish i could have asked Professor Hawking if he knew where...

    The Quest To Find Raxxla

    I've been there. I believe Josie Rosa is a reference to a UK (classical) musician. If you go to the middle of the "spar", Josie Rosa installation has a signal that is a music sheet. I'm nowhere near patient enough to sit there to record all of this, decode the music and see what exactly the...

    The Quest To Find Raxxla

    Depends how far away you are. In game gravity is purely a local phenomena rather than in the real world where it's a universal phenomena, once you get far enough away from an object the gravity of that object no longer affects you, and for planets you don't have to go very far before you are out...

    ...able to detect the titan? we should do science on this, as the same mechanic may be used on raxxla, the dark wheel, the rift or rogue planets. although i suspect they are colder... how far out does the titan signal go? do black holes amplify the signal? do different scanners amplify the signal?

    NGC 7822 Black Holes?

    Arrived at NGC 7822 and visited Cupid's Arrow... the message there says "Once arrived, this area is filled with black holes and vibrant stars". The vibrant stars are obvious, but I don't see any black holes when I switch the galaxy map to show only non-sequence stars. So I suppose that means...

    The Quest To Find Raxxla

    I can certainly agree with you there. A rogue planet would be the perfect mechanism for Raxxla, something you would need to figure out and calculate every time you wanted to find Raxxla, always in different locations each time you tried. And even when you did get to Raxxla you would die after a...
