Just visited Scheau Phoe NB-M c24-7 because it was supposed to have interesting looking rings according to
https://www.edsm.net/en/system/id/2820164/name/Scheau+Phoe+NB-M+c24-7
But it looks like since then the rings intersecting the planet have been removed.

Ok Sorry for the spam.

Hello Cmdr,

your post is far away from to be spam. Try it again! You'll find something special soon, for sure.

o7 Fly safe, Cmdr.

Description:	This system has an interesting binary class 2 gas giant pair where the two ringed giants are extremely close to each other. This makes for a beautiful scene for photos. These planets could possibly, if caught at the right point, make for a spectacular "sunrise shot". If that wasn't enough, the binaries are orbited by a ringed, terraformable high metal content world, and the binary giants are just visible from there.

'Finsternis'

https://www.edsm.net/de/system/bodies/id/43750940/name/Eowrailn+AA-A+e0

A black hole which first planet is a gas giant, surrounded by a bunch of landalbe moons, one even with its own rings.

It's dark, therefore the name 'Finsternis', German for darkness

Hey all, another CMDR in the Stellar Unknown expedition came upon this system, with the most massive stars orbiting the least. This seems pretty unusual to me. Is it?

It's a relatively massive F V/ G V binary with a third (F V?) companion orbiting the pair, and a fourth (least massive, M V?) companion orbiting the three stars - they're not "most massive stars orbiting the least".

Don't subordinate brackets indicate an orbiting body? Please don't tell me I'm just reading the damn map wrong.

It sounds like you are... the primary star is always at the top. Here that's a binary, there's a third star orbiting that, and a fourth star orbiting all three.

Blaea Chraea WJ-R d4-10

Little atmospheres

First and only planet in this system is a 20000km one with a lot of craters, filled with mist. It makes an inredible look, nearly just as a planet with atmosphere.
The landscape is looking great aswell.

The mist disappears in the night.

I can provide better pictures, if needed o7

There are lots of such high g ices all over the galaxy and each and every of them has mists in craters

EDIT: Had a bad example. I'll find another...

It's probably not something worth posting on this thread, understanding how system maps work is very off-topic here.

Name:	Lavender Nebula
Game map search ref:	Floarks NT-Z d13-452
Description:	A small, purple-brown nebula not far off of the Sol-Sag A* route and about 1kLy under the galactic plane. Because of its size and location, there are no more than 5 stars inside the nebula.

Description:	This system is in a nebula not far off the Sol/Colonia route. Here, a rock moon orbits very closely to a class IV ringed gas giant. From this moon, you get great views of the ringed gas giant against the backdrop of the nebula.

The Schieno Gauntlet

Schieno LD-S E4-526

Jump into this system and run the gauntlet of a very aggressive neutron star in exceptionally close pairing with a G class star. This G class is just 4ls away from the neutron star! Only 20ls away from the jump point is another G class making this a treacherous jump in if you catch the stars in the wrong positions.

The neutron/G class are so close and bright I was only able to take pictures where they appear to be touching, reminding me of a snitch from Harry Potter, alternative naming suggestion...The Golden Snitch?

Description:	Inside this unusually lively triple black hole system is all known forms of life. This system has a water world (BC 1 a), ammonia world (A 4 g), 2 water giants (A 3, BC 2), and, most impressively, a ringed Earth-like world (BC 8 d). Found using data from edastro.com

It turns out I can't spell. Its name should be The Impossible Quintet.
