Loads of nice finds and new minor discoveries. I need to take the time to go through all this after the CGStill waiting for the new big perception changing find, but it's early days
HI drkaii,
Thanks for the work on this been away a while but well worth the wait. Just need a little luck to stumble upon something good
Question:
Is there a way to batch report findings to the form?
for example, if i find a planet with 50 occurrences of Bark Mounds, i'd want to just write bark mounds, my CMDR nick, original discoverer etc once, and then dump a list of the 50 coordinates along with corresponding POI #.
Or would it be sufficient to just report one of the 50 with a comment saying that the 49 POI's are identical. ( if that is actually the case)

Elongated fast rotating HMC
Suggested Name: The Carousel
Game map search ref: Traikaae VI-T d3-15 D 1
Description: An elongated High Metal World that's tidally locked to it's parent star. At a surface velocity of approx. 6,244 km/s, it's fast rotation elongates it to an egg-like form roughly along it's orbital plane. A Class M/ Class L binary only 27 ls away tilts the planets rotational axis slightly (6.79 °) and maybe also causes the faint eccentricity of it's orbit. Through tidal heating, the planet's surface temperature is over 1,000 K higher than that of it's L-Dwarf parent star. These high temperatures boil away silicates form the surface, forming over 80 % of it's athmosphere.

A completely black, rocky ice world I dub the "Black Marble"
3.5g Gravity, almost 5 million atmosphere's of pressure.
In just the right light you can see the frozen surface.

It seems like I am the only person not to know of the next waypoint, I tried my binoculars on to read the system name on the picture of the map that I was supposed to head to, but the name would not be accepted in the galaxy map.
Reads: Pru Aeacs HW-S b31-2 ?

For the route, waypoint, and itinerary... bookmark this thread : Link
It contains all the information needed for the next part of the trip to WP3, WP3 system details, and galmap references and links to information about each POI to visit along the way.

System: BYEIA EURK YJ-X C2-5
Planet: A 2 B
Name: Tumbleweed
Low gravity, vivid colors, countless deep canyons with near-vertical cliffs, and water magma geological sites - all with a close class II gas giant on the horizon. The only thing this moon is missing is people!

Bookmarked, thank you.
Wow, interesting! I didn't know the forge has this option as many twin stars should be clear ellipsoids but are not. Thanks for sharing.
Small irregular shaped moon with a relatively fast orbital period that allows watching an eclipse in real time. Has Sylicate Vapor Geysers, nice impact of color. Very close to its parent star, which is not far from a larger star in the system.
System: Pyramoe WK-M d8-123
Body: B 1 a
Radius: 259 km
Orbital period:0.5D

Egg World: Pyramoe SQ-K d9-103 d 1. This planet orbits its brown dwarf parent once every two hours, and the brown dwarf orbits a close binary pair of stars every two days. Its surface temperature is over 6,000 Kelvin, hotter than the surfaces of every star in the system. The high temperature and heavy tidal forces from the nearby stars' gravity have stretched the planet into an oblong shape.

Gas giant planet 1 has binary moons 1b and 1c, orbiting very closely to each other - about 4800 km distance (each planet is about 800-900 km radius). Both have volcanism and useful materials. As they also orbit closely to the gas giant, you get a beautiful view of two worlds when landed at one. The here from planet 1b - Parent and Twin:

Neutron Waters: The primary star in Pyramoe QZ-N d7-0, first discovered by CMDR Tom Edme, is a neutron star. Its companion is a Class-M red dwarf. Five water worlds orbit the companion star, and four of those water worlds are terraformable.
