First footfall

I think it's for the glory. You get the extra credits for first mapping. I guess there are some for scanning plants...
 
I've wondered about that, too. Where does one see who had footfall on any given planet or moon? I've yet to find it in the new UI.

As others have said we now get ARX for First Footfall, though I haven't tested how many yet. I imagine it will add a little to your Exploration rank too (untested)

To see First Footfall you need to go into the System Map, select the planet and then click Planetary Details on the right hand side menu. (First Discovered and Mapped are in the Information tab)

Thanks. I must have missed it. Or I missed the chance to get First Footfall on some previously discovered worlds!

It plays a small fanfare and displays a message on screen when you get a first footfall. It is also worth noting that if a system is populated then you cannot get first footfall on any planet in it.

I'd forgotten that detail. That's exactly why I hadn't seen it.

I've gotten a few First Footfalls (feetfall?) when I was still out in the Black. There was a surprising lack of confetti.
