Coming back into Elite Dangerous and playing Horizons I tried landing on a planet but got "Planet available in Odyssey version only" This was the first time I have tried planetary landing since coming back and got quite the shock. Is it not possible for Horizon players to land on planets anymore? If so, Why? Thanks in Advance.

You cannot land on planets with tenuous atmospheres. Horizons only allows you to land on planets without atmosphere. You can distiungish the Odyssey planets in the system map by the blue sphere around them in addition to the circle that marks them as landable.
FIY, those atmospheric planets are the one you do the exobiology stuff on, for instance.
Another thing: Odyssey is well worth getting. Between the availability of the atmospheric planets, which are awesome, the on foot content and the new ships only being available for ARX without Odyssey you might as well get it. With Odyssey, the new ships are available just for credits from the shipyard once they are out of early access, which at this time is all of them except the Panther Clipper.
I think the Scorpion is also only available with Odyssey. Really a no-brainer to get the DLC at this point. If you want to spent any money at all, that is.
