An inky gas giant near the Cone Nebula

That is an amazing shot - what a Planet! It looks like ink swirling in cream, with some sliced onions floating about (yum).

Not enough homicidal screenshots in this thread:

Failed!!!

I wanted to see the body of the pilot plastered over your windscreen LOL.

 

[Dogthinker]

Three stars and a gas giant. I'm looking almost straight up, as the fire in the cockpit was messing with the shot

Wow, what is that blue bubble? A nebula?

Oh... my... God... unbelievable shot! +10 mate (if I could)

Yep. A... Bubble Nebula.

Pretty nice at close range.

Can't remember which world, but I just had to stop and gaze.



I recommend to everyone to take a stock sidewinder and get up close and personal with a station, they are just awesome.

Dammn next time take a 4k screenie and share the link! I'd love that as a wallpaper!

 

[Thalkran]

Nearly perfect blue orb of a Waterworld.

OH SHI.....

"I lost my heart to a starship trooper !"

...and I found it:

 

[Sparkam]

An Earth-Like planet - at first I thought it had no land mass, but then I saw this shoreline. I think it's just the polar ice cap, but it still looks pretty. Love how the Milky Way fits into the shot.

I think that screenshot should be ticketed. Judging from lighting the ice cap is below the water level.

Heh, you're right. I've also noticed that on my shots (after latest patch)

Definitely worth ticketing asap. Also noticed that on my exploration video

A very unique grouping of 4 stars.

From left to right: Class A, Herbig Ae/Be, Class F, Class A

The Herbig Ae/Be is spinning very fast, it completes a rotation every 15 seconds!

 

[Tox Laximus]

Eclipse.

I rather like it. One thing really bugs me though, the leftmost star looks a bit distorted from the FOV. I tried experimenting with the FOV slider, but - and I can't believe I'm actually saying this - it didn't go low enough.

Dammn next time take a 4k screenie and share the link! I'd love that as a wallpaper!

The image I posted is down-sampled (for the sake of people's bandwidth) to 720p from a 4k screenie. The original does indeed look much better. I was quite surprised by the level of detail, although if you zoom in on it you discover that the gas giant is octagonal (so if you wanted to use it on a 4k display, you'd need to do a little editing to fix that optimisation.)

The original bmp is 95mb, as a png it's 25mb, a little on the large side... I guess I can find somewhere to post it up, later.

A metal planet with unusual rings.

The local star partially eclipsed by the same planet, viewed from the upper layer of the rings:

Is this the one that can find gold to mine?

Ran across these while bounty hunting the other day....


Ammonia Planet and it's Neighbor

 

[Thalkran]

This star is a healthy 0 million years old.

I think that screenshot should be ticketed. Judging from lighting the ice cap is below the water level.

Although we are assuming that the lighter mass is the ice, the darker mass the water. Perhaps it's the other way around? (this being space and all, things can be very strange!).
