Stations orbiting within planet rings.

Yiryi-Sa · Oct 17, 2020

Hi CMDRs,

I've been on an exploration journey, looking for stations that are found within the rings of their parent planets (note: not between a planet and a planet's ring). So far I've found three.

I'd like to build a database/collection of these stations (even if its only a handful of them), as I haven't really seen a database/collection yet. Here's a list I've compiled so far:

Hauser's Reach: Robigo
Artemis Lodge: Celaeno
Plater’s Tyranny: Hilla

What else can I add to my list? Thanks CMDRs.

Lots of topics if you run a search here and on reddit https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/station-inside-a-ring.320749/

I visited that thread prior to creating this one, because the systems listed in that thread were not what I was looking for (it lists systems nestled between planets and rings, not in the rings themselves).

Please try to read more carefully next time.

At least have the same courtesy and read my post carefully. I gave one example, I suggested running a search yourself. Those stations you listed are well known.

I'd also suggest reading Ian's comment in that same topic..

I have done a search, and have come up with nothing other than the three I listed, and two others I recently visited but don’t have saved.

I have read carefully, so no, I wont extend some sort of “courtesy.” Its frustrating when someone clearly posts the thing I did not want.

Ok you are clearly not getting it. Certain stations where hand placed (above/ not inside) planetary rings, like Celeano, a home base for many of us. You also have a few asteroid bases (inside rings) That is it..

Why bully yourself by getting agitated? 777 was trying to help you, if that help wasn't spot on, why not shrug & move on? Maybe acknowledge the effort and its failings in a polite way, like "Thanks, but I already searched and found nothing".

Do you speak to people like this when you meet for the first time face to face?

Exodus Reach in Ratraii (Colonia)
Mortimer's Charm in Kinesi (Colonia, ringed earth like, very nice)
Foster Terminal in Coeus (Colonia)

...and prolly a couple of others I missed.

Nah, he normally says hello with two words, the second one being "off" ....!

Thank you! This is what I was hoping to find. Looks like I’ll need to head out Colonia again.

Oh, Moore's Charm in Luchtaine of course, also in Colonia. Its a roid base inside a ring. Mortimer's Charm in Kinesi is just above the ring btw, but in essence they all have been offset.

These are great! Thank you.

And yeah, “being inside the ring” is not entirely accurate, as they’re offset as you say. But its sufficient enough to distinguish their relative orbit to other stations that are not in the offset proximity.

Is Kinesi in Colonia’s bubble as well?

Witch Head Science Center is an example of an asteroid base inside the ring.

Nice! I was just there (in Witch Head area) and didn’t notice it. Thank you.

There's always Condescending Station out near the Patronising Nebula?

Near to the Belittling Black Hole I believe.

Kamiyoda · Oct 18, 2020

I'm going to blow up those stations out of spite now

I carefully read and saw what you did here...
