11G Landable Planet

[FixMeNow]

So hey guys i just landed on an 11.01g planet, i think it might be a record.

This wasnt exactly by chance O-types seem to throw up the high gravity things, i have been mapping O-types for last week. Havent found the 11.01 spot, maybe in a crator?

Was a bit of a crash landing as i had to avoid the pumpkins at biological 2 site.

AFAIK this is a record.

Wow! Gotta be a bit tricky to get one of those exploraconda's landing there!

l imagine atmospheric planets have higher gravity force. If and when we can land on them, will we get a a new module or different planetary landing process?

Nice commander, and great pick on the handle. At 11gs you were probably 2'4" when you left.

Prior to DW2, it was easy to assume there was a hard limit at 10G, since none had been found over that threshold, and then one with 10.6 G was discovered. 11.01 should be a new record!

My EDSM data is a couple of days old, and still showing "10.66" as the current highest landable surface gravity. So once this comes through, it should be the new record for sure.

Right, adding that to my to-do list. Not before I sell my 6-odd months of exploration data first!

That is, when I finally get to Colonia.

Thanks OP, great find!

I'm really jealous right now!

 

[Hedy]

Great find. My Anaconda is sucking in its cheeks trying to look slim & lite about now.

I've seen 25 g for metallics with atmosphere. Those may just be nope-zones, similar to planets with insanely thick atmospheres.

Holy crap nice find.

 

[Shir]

Nice! I see it's close to Colonia..

 

[FixMeNow]

Cheers for rep guys, i believe G can still get higher, combination of moon size and how close it is to the O-Type is the key.

This metal rich body is only 94k earth masses, the record for an metal rich body is 715k just need the luck i guess.

I did find another 9G before this and an O-Type super giant , must of scanned maybe 70 O-Types before i found this, so its worth checking them out, would love a 15g planet.

Care to share the system name where that 9g world can be found? I love high g worlds, so I would definitely want to land on any planet with more than 9g!

I just might have to pay a visit seeing it's only 2K Ly's from Colonia.

Sadly i didnt bookmark it and i dont use EDSM, Its somewhere in empyrean straits, so should not be too hard to find

It might show up in the Codex as a highest gravity landable planet for the straits?

Haha, very nice find !

Getting down there is probably a bit like this

There's always "The mighty" - a 9.9g planet not too far away from Colonia

I'll have to go and land on this 11g as I've done "the mighty"

I have a few I've run across as well. They might be hard to get to given all the permit locked systems.
