OK, here is my list of recently found ELWs, mostly from my survey of the Lychoitl Sector.
Now, for the usual tourist notes.
ZUNI PD-K d8-3843 – an utterly unpleasant high-G jungle planet, with the dubious distinction of being the ELW with the highest mass and gravity that I have ever personally discovered. With thin air and such high gravity, I doubt any of the native lifeforms are capable of flight, despite the richness of the jungle habitat. Group 3, as almost all such high-G worlds are.
ZUNI SS-U d2-7269 – slightly smaller, and 50 degrees colder, this world is not much of an improvement on Zuni PD-K. The three suns in the sky and the 3-month-long day length, due to tidal locking with a larger co-orbital HMC, would probably not help with the unpleasantness. Group 3 as well.
DUMBOOE RM-W d1-1679 – A chilly yet generally much more pleasant world than either of the Zuni worlds, but nevertheless a Group 3 large, thin-aired world. This time, it’s the high axial tilt that renders it less-than-optimal; the combination of high axial tilt and rapid rotation must make for some very unearthly biological rhythms. I’ve just noticed I never bothered mapping the ELW here, so if anyone wants a quick tag and cash, they’re welcome to it. I won’t be coming back here.
DUMBOOE JA-A d4841 – here we have a lovely jewel of a system, binary Earth-likes and a whole bunch of terraformables. Both are hot worlds, though with quite different environments. Planet 10 is the more pleasant of the pair, being a small-end-of-Group-3 tropical world; Planet 11 smaller, with Earth-matching gravity; I would classify it as a Group 2 (thick-aired) desert planet. Both worlds have suffered from the proximity of the sisters to each other, with day-lengths measured in months. As I mentioned in my survey summary, the two worlds are mere blue specks when viewed from each other, so the scenery is rather mundane.
OGAIRY JR-C c26-2768 – a very nice little Group 1 world; with a pleasant atmosphere, temperate climate and landable moon, this world is very homely. The 45 degree axial tilt makes for extreme, but not intolerable, seasonality.
Lychoitl Survey worlds:
TU-V d3-424 – Super-hot, dense, high-gravity jungle planet. Group 3. The view of the rings might make living here worthwhile.
TU-M d8-1824 – Temperate Group 3, very similar to Ogairy but more humid and with minimal axial tilt. Surprised to find such a pleasant planet around such a white, fierce A5 star.
EC-S d5-1943 – Larger, chillier and it’s another Group 3 world with a near-90-degree axial tilt. Little to commend it.
HC-K d9-4240 – A cold, thick-aired Group 2 world with a month-long day. It’s in a moderately interesting triple-planet configuration with two terraformables, but otherwise mostly harmless.
FC-T d4-1014 – This ringed world is a cold, damp Group 3 world.
EM-U d3-766 – A very similar world to the previous one, only with a hotter more tropical climate, and without the rings.
KC-B c27-17 – another cool damp Group 3.
II-V c18-500 – a small, dry temperate world, not too unpleasant but with no criteria that perfectly match Earth. Group 1.
SL-X c17-166 – Perfect Earth-match for gravity, but little else that’s comfortable on this cold, thick-aired (Group 2) world.
ZT-Z c16-287 – This dun little world, last in the Lychoitl Survey, currently bears the questionable honour of having the thinnest atmosphere of any ELW I have personally encountered, at just 0.37 atmospheres t’s just slightly higher pressure than the air on top of Mount Everest on Earth. Good thing the air is oxygen-enriched.
Back to the Bubble
EESHORKS CF-L c22-4 – a typical Alpine Group 2 world, with a rapid 12-hour day length.
PYRAMIO AR-T d4-17 – this “Tatooine-like” desert planet orbits two of the five suns in this large, complex system. Group 2, so it’s Earth-normal gravity but a thick atmosphere. I’ve labelled it “desert” due to the high temperature and low water vapour content, but the portrayal of the planet in-game does not reflect this.
THAILEIA PL-P c8-13 – a generally pleasant little Group 1 world, with nice Earth-matching atmosphere and temperatures slightly cooler than Earth-normal.
BLU THUA DC-D d12-88 – large, cold, Group 3. At 2600 LY from Earth and not too far West of the direct Sag A line, this was my first accidentally-discovered pre-Tagged ELW in a long time.
PIPE (STEM) SECTOR DL-Y d112 – Finally, another pre-Tagged ELW – and perhaps no wonder, as it’s situated in the relatively small and thoroughly-explored-by-now Pipe(Stem) Sector. Not just Tagged, but the whole system was already Mapped too. At just one and a half jumps away from the Pipe(Stem) Trojan (which I also visited but is already in the List), this tropical Group 3 world has so far been overlooked in the List.
