Class V Gas Giant?

Xexexh · Apr 19, 2015

I tried to do a search but it didn't show up anything. I didn't know Class V gas giants even existed but just found one. Anyone know how much they're worth?

Found it in the NGC 7822 cluster. If anybody is interested I can upload some screenshots.

According to Wiki they're worth 1500 - 2000cr

They're one of the rarest gas giants but there are plenty around. I've found quite a few so far. I think the one's with ammonia-based or water-based life are probably worth more and I've found a few of them too, maybe more than class V's.

IIRC class II Gas Giants are valuable, but class V ones seem to be more rare.

Thanks. Never seen a class V before and now found 2 in three systems. I normally scan gas giants so it surprised me. Have seen dozens if not hundreds of class I - IV and Water / Ammonia life ones, although I saw my first Water Giant yesterday.

It's nice that there are these unusual things to surprise us

I found one last night. I don't know how it was with you but mine was quite striking because it was really big and right next to the sun. I was quite surprised because normally gas giants are a long way out. I took some screenshots and can upload them later.

I havent found much of those either, at least compared to other Gas Giants. With one exepction: Helium Rich Gas Giants. At least for me they are even more rare then Class V (or pretty much anything else for some reason).

Recently been on a quick jaunt around the Pleiades nebula. Some systems around there have class V gas giants.
