I don't know if I'm up for much of this.
I've found that if I tilt my nose down, and use upthrust to move forward, that I can cruise along the canyons poking into shadows.
Spent some time doing that.
I'm currently working: California Sector BA-A E6 Planet 4 (Mic Turner Base).
It feels like (from the list) that there should be many more here. But I haven't turned up any yet.
Does someone have the criteria?
Star Types: M
Body orbit:
Type: Rocky with Metal; High Metal Content.
Temp Min: 274k
Temp Max: 459k

If PanPiper is still around can he please update first post? (EG we're in Cycle C now)

The outlier temperature above is 379 k.
It's not so much that there are lots of barnacle planets at that temperature. Just there have been many Barnacles discovered on a couple of planets. Also there are some holes in the spreadsheet. There was one body listed as being 193 k. But on investigation it turned out to be 273 k
I don't think you can say that every region has been searched equally.
So a planet with a committed CMDR with talent, experience and good fortune is going to poll higher.
On the planet with Mic Turner Base in the California Nebula there are only six discovered Barnacles. But some of them are quite close to each other.
Which makes me think that another search of the same ravines with fresh eyes will turn up something else.
It feels like the California Nebula is being held in reserve for some untriggered part of the story.
