These are some very nice screenshots! The one where you got close to a planet's surface really makes me want to land on earth. How long did it take to get that close to a planet?

Awesome shots!

Here are a few of my own favorites from the last few days. The JUMP LOG link in my sig has many more.

- indeed awaiting planetary landings, the sooner the funner.

I drove as close as I dared with SC, then voluntarily dropped out - took about 5-6 minutes to get that close from there then.

When you find that first ELW you won't want to let it go. I soooo wanted to land there.

Can imagine why

- yet to find ELW myself.

Hmm.. I think in a few days I'll try to get to earth's surface, that should be interesting.

Looks like something I once built in Kerbal Space Program.

Except it's not on fire.

Heh, cute.

Tad cold ... any closer to absolute zero and the place'd be colder than space/vacuum itself...

...and I wonder ... a "ẑ" or an unhappy face...

Sadface, looks like a little brown meatball rolled away on him there.

Not all stars are dim candles...

I haven't seen any binary stars that have this happening.

Those stars are already in-game, but they currently just float a distance away from each other. I heard that FD plans to update the graphic part of it to make them look like that.

Yea, the basics are there, just need to sort out the graphics.

Almost jet black planet (the origin of Mir's story)....

Uh, I love it! Where is that?

Thalkran · Jan 28, 2015

I lensed the Small Magellanic Cloud!

Also freaky but can't be captured in a screenshot. Putting a Blackhole between you and a star and fly toward it watching the star shrink from the lens. Captured at BD+28 4211
