Don't know how common this is, but it was an absolute treat to find. The GIF is three screenshots, each taken seven seconds apart.

Description:Orbiting star C is a planet with a mass and semi-major axis so small it is visibly ovoid and its orbit can be watched in real time.

I was aware of the abuse, but not the rescue. That's freaking awesome, and what makes the ED community stand out. Well done to all involved.

Greetings commanders, not sure if this is uncommon - at least it was the first time I saw 4 ringed gas giants within a sweep of my eye. My first POI submission.

Game map search ref:BYEIA AED ZI-L b10-4
Description:Four ringed Class I or Jovian gas giants are orbiting close to each other, namely AB 8, AB 8 A, AB 8 B and AB 8 C.

Hello,

Thanks!

Can someone look into this from here, the old thread years ago that me and a few others posted this about seems to be gone, I posted it in one of the Raxxla search threads but also is on topic here

 
Attached is the PDF for my DSSA Carrier POI application
I've never posted to the forums before so if i've made a mistake i'll be happy to fix it

Hello! How can i sibmitt distances to edsm? I exported all journals, but in profile see "Distances submitted: 0"
In Dashboard see "Total hyperspace distance: 48,536.00 ly"
Link to open profile - https://www.edsm.net/en/user/profile/id/81677/cmdr/pleh77
There are better places to ask EDSM-specific questions, but I think you'll find this is a legacy feature. Some time back, coordinates weren't so readily available for systems and trilation was required to calculate their positions - which involved collecting distances. But it's no longer needed, so don't worry about it :)
 
First post! Not sure if uncommon, but it is a pretty sight to see.

I've already posted this to the GGG thread as GGG 31. This post shows the FD tag with my CMDR name to verify I've visited personally. I've been encouraged to post it here to have it be a part of the wider mapping project.

Game map search ref:Byoi Aewsy RZ-F D11-104
Description:The first planet of the system is a Glowing Green Giant displaying vivid green and purplish-brown bands.

Please let me know if there's any other requirements I neglected in this post.
 
I've fixed/found a number of the broken links from the front page. Hopefully can remove some of the strikethroughs on the front page for anyone else seeking the history of exploration :)
