It is like you can actually see it? In this picture?
Yeah
Follow a line up from the SRV almost to the base of the mountain, then go left a little.
Or - the line of the left hand side of the mountain points to it
My guess: http://imgur.com/kCw1pFR, but if I am right I might have to go get some new glasses... or it is a rather big crater, let's keep it at that last one, shall we?Yeah

Well spotted!
I'm just over half way to Jacques, and decided to take a diversion to see how far 'down' I could go: I got to 2,901 Ly before running out of stars. Decided to do a little prospecting on the moons of a gas giant while I was there. Firstly, one of a binary pair of moons, seen from the other.
Secondly, the gas giant seen from another moon, with the galactic core in the background.

Great balls of fire
BIG stars
The Wolf Rayet I'm sat beside is pretty big at 8.5 solar radii.
The other star is a giant B class star - and it's 15AU from my ship. Sol would be a point barely distinguishable from the background stars from that distance but this beauty has a radius 410.7 times bigger.

OMG! I'm getting old and need new glasses. I thought it was the dismissing Asp in your picture
No, no, no! It is a big crater. Just that. No need for new glasses at all.OMG! I'm getting old and need new glasses. I thought it was the dismissing Asp in your picture
Screenshots from the final leg of my trip to Jaques.
First a booby trap. Can you see it?
The bright spot is actually a neutron star! I hadn't realised, and moved forward to begin scooping. Fortunately, the resulting emergency drop didn't do much damage.
A nice ringed water world, with nebula in the background
And the obligatory arrival at Jaques screenshot.

Passing two black holes (of many in this nebula...).
Still they give me the creeps and it's hard for me to go near them. It's a game but I keep forgetting it...
