Good job curating the content, CMDR. :)

If I may, I'd like to add a few other things:

My original report on Sagittarius A* from Gamma. Much of what was seen isn't applicable to the current game, but as a report of the then state of things, and of experiences that are most likely never going to be experienced by anyone else ever again :) then, well, it's there. It now has a bit of an epilogue of sorts added to the end. It's the only "exploration" journal I have made on this forum.

My ongoing blog - well, more of a diary, entitled "One Man And His Reptile." Although primarily exploration, it's more of a daily journal of all aspects of the game experienced. It hasn't been updated for a while, but I have made offline notes and screenshots which one day I shall upload. It's an external link.

Finally, for anyone else interested, the First Great Expedition official website, including links to their forum. Again, another external link.

Many thanks. :)

thanks but the values for the stars and planets, and in the last graphic, are all wrong :)
If you update it then I am happy to post the link, look at my holo-chart, use those values

They are not my graphics to update - I do not have the right, (or the author's original PSD file to work with).
Also:
  • The book has the exact same values as the online version of Nutter's Guide, which you already include. (And the book is slightly more up to date.)
  • I find that having a guidebook in the cockpit is a better aid to exploration than having a bookmark in a browser. Seems a shame to miss out.
  • There is little to be gained (if anything) from scaling the values anyway, because we only use them to inform scanning priorities, so number scale is irrelevant. The values could be given as a scale of 1-100 and remain just as useful.
  • Personally, I like that the book can be an old edition; I think it's better for being the kind of wild-west edge-of-frontier quirky publication where you need to decide how much faith to put in the author, rather than knowing you're getting infallible gospel-truth handed down from on high... somehow. The book mentions this - it doesn't pretend to be gospel. It's supposed to be an in-game artifact.
