Pawing at the Planetary Bell

Nothing too incredibly spectacular yesterday. Today may be my last day for about a week or so as I complete preparations for a convention the following weekend. I won't be streaming, at least, but may move forward on my journey a bit. Have some more pics.

Uniquely-patterned Gas Giant (more so than usual, anyway)

And off for a handful of days as I go to a convention out of town. I shall return Monday!

For the time being, have a visual representation of the yin-yang route I plan to travel.

I will basically be hitting the neutron/black hole field four times at different areas or levels on the z-axis as I perform this.

3 Super/Giant suns, 3 earthlikes, a half dozen water worlds and some various other interesting finds.

Not bad for an mostly afk, ~500ly day.

Going to start posting weekly updates now, probably Sat/Sun.

Seems I've found a record-breaking star. A Herbig Ae/Be type that is 38,796.92ly from Sag A*. Haven't really paid much attention to the "records" so far so who knows what else I've found that surpasses any of those. >_>

Gettin' trolled by high metal content planets, too. This was very earthlike.
What are those spots? Volcanos?

I'm havin' fun, though!

Dang. That is one seriously long trip. Thanks to relativity, by the time you get back it should be the year 3,367,945 AD! You'll be a gazillionaire (if you can even still sell the data).

Thanks!

Nothing much of note this past week.

Found some new and interesting discoveries but nothing too terribly beautiful.

Here are some of the more interesting finds:

A derp-like...

In a binary orbit...

With a class IV Gas Giant...

Orbiting a binary star.

The Gas Giant and Earthlike are roughly 3kls away from the binary so I imagine the Gas Giant helps with some of the planetary warming? Wish I knew how a lot of this stuff worked.

And my first ringed Ammonia World.

Ammonia Rocky Planet... First I've seen of its kind.

Gotta post this one. Was too far out to pass up!

Class I Gas giant with 3 rings. I am fairly certain I haven't seen any body with 3 rings before. Decided to investigate.

"Three" rings. Yeah, right.

I was trying to skirt the edge of the ring to see just how many ls away the Gas Giant actually was, but the rings were spread so thin and so dark from distance that I could not physically see the edges of the ring until I was pulled out of supercruise.

There were no actual objects here, just these distant symbols that represent the asteroids in Supercruise and small icy particals that come with any icy ring. I was still mass-locked, though.

At over 1m KM radius. I'm not surprised.

Pretty uneventful night. A good amount of water worlds, most of them TFC. This one was notable:

And something I have been searching for for a loooong time - A ringworld orbiting another ringworld close enough to capture one another largely in images. Sadly it was not at the optimal angle, but close enough!

Thanks Holidazed for hangin' out in the stream with me tonight!
