Map update complete post #2297 -> post #2359:
First a few submissions that I have left hanging during my absence these last few months - my apologies to anyone waiting to see these on the map.
Post #2163
CMDR: JonathanBurnage
Name: Dance of the compact quartet <-- renamed by submitter
Map reference: Kyli Flyuae WO-A f39
Type: Stellar Features
Description: This system contains a black hole (primary), two neutron stars and a white dwarf, all within a few light-seconds of each other. The Black Hole is visible in the lower center of the image above.

From PM correspondence:
CMDR: CMDR NATOstrike
Name: Nykk
Type: Planetary Features
Map reference: Pru Ais TP-O d6-2
Description: Nykk is located in the Circanus Transit. A ternary system with a neutron main, Nykk currently holds the record for having the most water worlds of any discovered system in the galaxy. The seven waterworlds are hosted by a type M star approximately 70,000 ls from the arrival point.
The system is named "Nykk", after the water spirits of Norwegian mythology.

From PM correspondence:
CMDR: Alesia
Name: Helium Paradox
Type: Planetary Features
Map reference: Blaa Phoe JX-T e3-26
Description: This system is a paradox to the scientific community as it contains a record breaking 22 helium-rich gas-giants. A
common hypothesis for the formation of helium rich gas-giants requires an ordinary gas-giant to "slow-cook" during several billion years to allow the lighter hydrogen to be purged from the atmosphere while the heavier heilum remains. But as the primary stars of this system are a young Herbig star as well as a young T-Tauri star, this hypothesis seems invalid in this case.

From the Sagittarius-Carina Mission:
CMDR: Manae
Name: The Twin Giants
Type: Stellar Features
Map Reference: Hypua Flyoae WL-J d10-2321
Description: This system contains two very similar K8 IIAB giants, a little under 85,000 ls apart.
