Hey All,
I'm on a little expedition out to the Formidine Rift, currently parked just outside the Heart & Soul nebulas. I have the locations of the lost bases out here which are my next stop after a tour of the nebulas, and then the mysterious mega ship with a loop back to the Bubble nebula on my way home, but while I was down this way I was wondering if there is anything else I must/should check out?
Any recommendations? Cool systems, planets, other settlements etc
I know there is a tonne of info/lore in the mega thread, so going to look over all that again and have a general plod around the area, but couldn't find anything searching around for what else might be worth checking out down here as a tourist so to speak.
Oh and one more question while I am down this way, is there a southern most point similar to Beagle Point in the north?
Cheers,
AD
Update: Preliminary List (In rough order):
Bubble Nebula
Heart & Soul Nebulae
RS Persei (Red Giant w/ landable planet in the fuel scoop zone)
CoR Listening Post Alpha - EAFOTS EU-R C4-1 A C2 (-34.2057, -77.6673)
CoR Listening Post Beta - EAFOTS LZ-H B10-0 D1 (-23.0613, -174.8850)
CoR Listening Post Gamma - EAFOTS RA-G B11-0 3 (-17.8731, -76.0522)
CoR Listening Post Delta - EAFOTS GL-Y E2 A1 6 (21.2838, 19.0682)
NGC 281 Nebula (BD+55 191 - 4 O Class Stars with one landable planet)
Rho Cassiopeiae (Supergiant star) (Route tips here) then head south across the Posiedal Wall to:
Zurara Megaship - SYREADIAE JX-F C0 (Near west end of Rift)
Small Backtrack at this point back easterly to:
Heisenberg Crossing Route across to outer arm - Myoideau RF-N C20-1 to Hypoae Aescs YE-R D4-2 (https://www.edsm.net/en/galactic-rou...Formidine+Rift) Will cut first section out and jump into route at approx Phroae Hypa PE-B B6-0 then small detour to:
Maia's Jewell - Schee Hypa KN-S E4-0 (Herbig Protostar)
Lumina Caelum - Hypoae Aescs AA-A H0 (Pair of Wolf-Reyet stars) **Note: Does not appear accessible**
Then follow Heisenberg Crossing Route to end, and continue south.
Vig's Beacon - Vigs AA-A E1 (Brightest star in dark area)
Point Decision Aicods KD-K D8-3 (Historical PONR)
From there I see where the stars take me, further south then perhaps once I find my limits head back up the Perseus Arm to:
Opposites Black Hole - Smaidou ZE-A G0 (Rare BH in the area)
Spongou Nebula
PZ Cassiopeiae (HIP 117078)
Explorers' End - Phae Phlai AA-A H0 (Far end of the FR before the Bovomit Badlands to the east)
Then either head deeper east towards Star One or head home via Jmanis Bridge back toward Sol..

, just taking a little 'tour' & want to make sure I don't miss anything interesting while I am down this way. Cross it off my bucket list while I wait for the core improvements next year & this alien stuff to finish. As nanite2000 mentioned, its all too confusing to figure out where to start, the mega thread certainly lives up to its name lol... From what I gathered too, the mystery had been solved (happy to be corrected by someone in the know), and it lead to that Salome story some months back, which lead to our Alien storyline now.
