Five planets, one barycenter

Hm, actually, could I ask anybody who might be nearby to swing to the system and make a screenshot of the spectrum graph? To see if there's any way it looks different than usual or not - as such, if there would have been any way to spot a rare configuration like this without having to scan everything.

Good idea. It'd be nice to know if there's a way to predict these within the new mechanics. I'll see about checking some out myself.
 
How close to the Jellyfish nebula is it? I'm at Beta Site right now, which is in the "Sanguineous Rim" area.
Can't tell exactly how close, but should be pretty close by - probably within 1,000 ly. Mind swinging there then, and taking a screenshot of the initial FSS graph?

Ok, I think the answer is going to be a resounding "No, you can't tell if there is anything interesting there" from the FSS :(

For interest, I flew to the sub-system, and arced above it until I could look down on it. With the orbit lines on, it does reveal the multiple Barycentre nature of the sub-system as the Orrery does. This is about the best picture I could get of it from the cockpit:

I can try and post-process the pictures to lighten them up a bit if that helps; it is a bit dark out there!
 
Thanks! And no worries, I was interested in the graph, and that's visible. Well, it's what I expected, but still a shame.
One picture to illustrate why I dislike the new system.
 
The system name in on the previous page :)

It is M36 SECTOR RI-T C3-5
It is also listed in the EDSM Galactic POI catalogue as "Five Emperors"
 
double 4 (not unique but looks nice)

What is the separation of the two primary barycentres? If it isn't in the "several hundred kls" range, that would be an awesome (in the literal sense!) place to find a vantage point and watch. It probably rivals "Fireflies"!
