Stellar Body Collisions

I forgot to mention that I recently updated the calendar to include new data that had been gathered from spansh.
I was able to use EDDN events recorded in EDGalaxydata to resolves some issues with the spansh data cause by horizons.

We now have over 300 colliders recorded. https://canonn-science.github.io/canonn-calendar/

The number of candidates is still growing and you can see the current list here https://canonn.fyi/collisions

It's worth checking out the ones with atmosphere or rings.

I'll work a bit more on getting more information about the bodies. For instance it would be very cool if some of the colliders have moons. Or

I hope to improve the calandar page at some point to show more information about the collsions like atmosphere and landables population etc. There is an API if anyone else would like to use it to make their own calendar.
 
New candidate here, right in the middle of the Monkey Head Nebula as well!;

Monkey Head Sector HW-W c1-0 C 11 b Monkey Head Sector HW-W c1-0 C 11 c 5,105.330 Collision at 18-Aug-2025 10:09 UTC (9h 16m)
 
Done another update to the sheet today.

Sadly we just missed an atmospheric collsion this November and there isn't another until 2023-01-10 20:27:03

Eimbaisys AA-A h355 A 1 a and A 1 b 48.8% overlap, duration 1 day, 21:27:11
But as its a black hole system there will not be much to see. A 1 a has a moon which would make it interesting if there was enough light

The one to watch is:
2023-02-03 07:45:04 Synuefai HD-I b56-2 bodies 7 c and 7 d 48.8% overlap, duration 1 day, 21:27:11

7 d has a thin Argon Atmosphere and both planets are landable. Its not a black hole system so hoping it will be good.

I'm going to re-run add some code to check for moons as that will make some of the other collisons more noteworthy
 
I've done another run. Now the spreadheet is recording if there are any moons. It is simplty looking for any bodies for which it is the parent.

Colliders with moons will be worth looking at to see if the moons will collide with one or other body. Its possible that the moons will collide even when the bodies do not.

Calculating that is a whole other kettle of fish.
 
On the 7th August 2028 two gas giants in Dryau Bro AA-A h136 will collide and stay conjoined for 37 days. Planet 1 b also has a landable moon of its own which potentially could collide multiple times before and after the main collision

Shame its in 6 years time!
 
Eotchops AA-A H548, bodies 2b and 2c, collision on May 22nd, 2026 13:22 UTC (2h16m). Both bodies are not landable, unfortunately.

I also have two other possible locations which need more recent scans. I'll try to update them soon.
