1 class B star and 8 brown dwarfs in one system.

Was traveling towards the coalsack region and i dropped in this system.
Found one class B and a load of brown dwarfs with a bunch of planets.
Is this common?

No its not in fact i would say its very rare, I am a explorer and am headed out to the North American Nebula to map it out now , only about a 1000 Ly to go.
you need to take a screen shot of any thing you find like it for everyone to see, take care and good luck on your explorations,

Maybe an edge case in the way the Stellar Forge generates systems? That would take a whopping amount of hydrogen to form a class B star with enough left over for 8 brown dwars and assorted planets from one initial accretion disk.

The other answer (and it would another super rare case) would be that the brown dwarfs could all have been shot out of other systems and captured by the Class B star. But they would probably be orbiting at very different angles to the main planetary system, and class B stars don't live very long for that to happen. If the 8 brown dwarfs were all orbiting in the plane of the other planets around the type B, it implies they formed along with them. And that's a lotta hydrogen to sweep up!

I would ticket this so FD knows about it, in case it's not supposed to happen.

Current real world models of matter in the universe can't account for where it all is. I read recently that it's possibly that up to 50% of stars are outside of galactic clusters, so perhaps it's entirely possible that 'foreign bodies' end up part of local system.

This is the reason I want to explore, to see things like this, but the advanced discovery scanner is just too far out of reach for me and I'm bored of grinding for credits.

I invested in a detailed surface scanner only. The rest is all basic discovery scanner.
It takes a litle more time to scan out a system, but its possible.

The system is Gamma Muscae, near the musca dark region.
It has lots of high metal content planets.
