Incoming transmission: Explorers near Colonia needed

INCOMING TRANSMISSION

29-04-3305 00:00 Standard Galactic Time
From: Galactic Mapping Project, Sol System, Earth, Inner Orion Spur
To: All Pilot Federation Explorers

Intense data-mining efforts of Universal Cartographic databases have revealed two previously overlooked sites of high scientific value. Explorers are asked to visit these locations and submit scans, descriptions and astrophotography. Explorers who contribute will be recognized by the Galactic Mapping Project for their efforts.

Both locations contain an earth-like world suitable for terraforming in primary orbit of a black hole. This was previously believed to be nearly impossible by the scientific community until the recent discovery of 'Tenebris Terrae' at Eos Ausms AA-A f252. Further details on these extremely unusual planets may revolutionize our understanding of biology and ecology. In addition, both systems are located less than 1000 light-years from the Colonia outpost. This gives excellent potential for further study and lucrative tourism contracts.

Galmap Reference System #1: Eol Prou NS-U f2-2220
Galmap Reference System #2: Eoch Pruae FG-Y f2444

TRANSMISSION CONCLUDES
 
System Eol Prou NS-U f2-2220 is only 5 jumps away from Carcosa - with 4 neutron boosts. Of course I ran into the exclusion zone of one of them, wasn't a problem though.

As described, Eol Prou NS-U f2-2220 is a Black Hole system with 2 neutron star secondaries, two terraformable HMCs and an ELW.

Rats. And I thought I've seen it all. Looks like I have a new goal. lol

Fly/land safe.

The second system, Eoch Pruae FG-Y f2444 was also only 5 jumps (including 4 neutron boosts) away from Carcosa, so I took a look:
The System has 24 bodies, the black hole and a neutron secondary roughly 25k LS out. The black hole is orbited by two gas giants, a class III with 5 moons (one of them - A 1 D - having a satelite) and the ELW and a class II with 11 moons of which one moon - A 3 I - has a satelite, too. The neutron secondary has two HMCs orbiting it.

Dropped a bit too close out of hyperjump, so I hit the exclusion zone of the black hole (again)

The ELW, Eoch Pruae FG-Y f2444 A 2 is 2.739 LS away from the black hole and has a nice ring to it - we should call it Apollo (pun intended) :LOL:

I continue to map the system now...

The A 1 ring (around the class III) is metal rich and has no hotspots.
A 1 D A has 22 geological surface signals.

The A 2 ring (around the ELW) is metal rich and has a monazite hotspot.

The A 3 ring (around the class II) is rocky and has 1 serendibite, 2 benitoite, and 4 hotspots of each alexandrite and musgravite.
A 3 A has 25 geological surface signals,
A 3 B has 24 geological surface signals.
 
I've found two more of these "black Earths" using EDAstro:

Granao VO-A f1799, discovered by CMDR Atheist
and Lyaisoo AA-A h447, discovered by CMDR SpaceMeLater which I'm at now

Two more have been found. This time, both reportedly discovered by CMDR Atheist (Granao VO-A f1799 was actually discovered by CMDR Ani Kirch) Who knows how he knows about these. Anyways here are system names:
  • Granou JH-V f2-1448 (with a terraformable moon and NS and WD secondaries)
  • Rothie JH-V f2-1094 (with a rocky ring and NS secondary. Also in a binary with CIV giant)
Is the GMP still interested in these "Black Earths?"

EDIT: These two were on Marx's list of ELW's which is how CMDR Athiest knew. They were discovered by CMDR Kaneda Burntsun and CMDR Marcos Black respectively
