How to find my discovered Earthlike...

I wanted my very first one to be special. I wanted to go out purposely exploring and find it organically and rejoice, take screenshots and mark the location to one day build a base on ( 😅 )...

Instead jumping between engineers and honking, I turn in my exploration data at the end of the session and sold it quick wasn't paying attention. I see something about first discovered earthlike.

This was supposed to be a special moment and I got robbed by the casualness of it. I blew it off.

I then became curious (This was sometime last week). I want to know about it and see it.

I use Inara, EDSM and Eddiscovery and I'm rather embarrassed to say I can't figure out how to find the name and system I discovered it in.

Still new to exploring and the add ons and not really sure which one has it or where. If anyone could help educate this Cmdr I would really appreciate it.

I've tried searches and can't seem to find relevant info maybe I'm not going about it the right way, if its obvious I apologize. I can see that I discovered a earthlike on EDSM but it doesn't give me the info on the name / system. Even got some email notice about it so I know I'm not crazy...
 
Just tested it, and it works a treat. Example screenshot:

The earth like world notification of EDSM isn't necessarily from the same planet as the one you got in game.
If you're playing on PC you can look at the log file in 'c:\users\username\saved games\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous'.
If you've got EDD, just run a search for "Earth". That should find all the journal entries for Earth-likes you've scanned. It won't be able to tell the difference between First Discoveries and otherwise.

Or filter for 'sell exploration data' to see which system got a 'discovered' bonus. Then see if one of those contained an ELW.
