Likewise for bookmarked, but been there a few timesCygnus X-1 is already in the game under the designation V1357 Cygni.
I have it bookmarked ready for whenever FD rework black holes. I refuse to visit it before then.
OP, Elite uses several star catalogues and it's often a mish mash of designations. It's usually worth searching all the alternate names before coming here. It's a pain, I know, but it's what we all need to do. HDE226868 is aka V1357 Cyg, which is where you'll find it here, as another poster said. There are a few others that aren't using the designation you'd think too...Requesting addition of Cygnus X-1 Binary system Black Hole w/ Blue Super Giant companion designation HDE 226868
