ELW moon orbiting a Neutron Star in a nebula

As the title says. Found an EWL moon orbiting a planet in a system where the only star is a Neutron Star. And the NS is in the center of a planetary nebula.
Nice place for a colony :)

The ELW is orbiting the last planet in the system. The funny thing is the NS and the nearest Gas Giant were already tagged. Someone was there and missed this little gem. My lucky day, i guess.

Nice one! Especially that it's inside a nebula. A planetary nebula, I assume?
And guess someone was unlucky, didn't zoom out on the system map to see the last planets. From time to time, I wonder if I haven't done the same sometime.

@ MacrosTheBlack: I have. ELMs around class B or neutron stars often orbit lava planets. Don't get me wrong though: such Earth-likes are very rare. It's just that if it's an Earth-like moon in such a system, odds are good that the planet will be a hellhole, and often have lava.

Yes, it was a planetary nebula. I will submit the system details tomorrow.

And I thought the first ELW moon I had ever found today was special [haha]

Interestingly, that system looks very similar to a Planetary nebula system I discovered in the SKAUDAI sector, and I was worried that I had been super lazy and missed the ELW, but that nebula is a different colour

Wow that's quite a find. Scan everything and see how much the system is worth!

I actually scanned only the last two planets and their moons. Everything else (apart from the NS and 1st GG which were already tagged) is available for any cmdr who wants to put their name in this system :)

System name is: DRYOEA FLYI II-S E4-6870

I've never seen an elw orbit a lava planet before. Marx?

I found an ELW moon with 1.8 earth mass and 1.07 earth radius orbitting a 14,000km radius lava world during the Shepard Mission. It was spectacular! The primary star was a young and small b-class star.

Love ELW and life bearing worlds as moons.
I found one recently in an exploration trip.
If I remember will post it when back home.

Is there a list of such worlds as moons?

Sure, the list of Earth-like worlds has them all noted. They aren't listed separately, but if you do a search for "ELW is a moon" on the Data sheet, you can find them quickly. Also noted as what they are a moon of, so if you want to narrow it down, search for "ELW is a moon of a planet", "ELW is a moon of a gas giant" and so on.

Fanstastic find cmdr.

What would i do for at least one simple ELW, 10 days without one. I must be in some cursed part of Galaxy, and withdrawal symptoms are strong. :)
