Any interesting systems inside it? Places to land? Anything?
Submissions without names and with short descriptions make me grumble.
Sorry about that. I'm not ready to disclose the pictured system's name yet, but here are some others:
- Eoch Grea DL-Y g408: Blackhole for those weird lensing affects.
- Eoch Grea MN-T e3-664: Neutron ELW
- Eoch Grea NS-T e3-307: Closest to the center; two Neutrons that are relatively close to each other.
Do you have other pictures of this? Particularly one showing how close everything is would be nice.
Edit: Also, I can not currently add this as a POI, because Hypio Ploe DV-G d10-40 is not in the EDSM database.
Double edit: None of your submissions are in EDSM. We need logs of the system before we accept POI. Explorers should be using something like EDDiscovery or otherwise manually uploading logs to EDSM.

GMP Update #4433-#4482
The "Wait, are we actually CAUGHT UP?!" edition
Not added:
#4408, was previously pending; lacks notability, is in crowded Colonia area
#4433 (incorrect submission format)
#4438 (not correct submission format, and close gas giants are not noteable)
#4440 (not noteable, we already have several POI close bodies near neutron stars)
#4472 (Hypio Ploe DV-G d10-40 not in EDSM database. need body logs.)
#4473 (not noteable, we have other bodies much closer to neutron stars. also system not in EDSM, need body logs.)
#4474 (BH+NS+rings are not noteable, many of these exist. also again, not in EDSM)
#4475 (Graea Dryou LO-P d6-43 not in EDSM)
Added:
#4436 (Lesser Mynoaw Nebula)
#4437 (Eor Aowsy Glowing Green Giant)
#4442 (The Gludgooe Campfires) - no individual item was noteable, but the combination and the excellent description were
#4447 (added as 'Polonium Pitstop') - the remoteness of this location contributed to acceptance
#4461 (Eodgold Anomaly)
#4462 (Lyaisoo Black Earth) - note: there are currently 380 known ELW where the system has a black hole, but only 6 known where the ELW orbits the black hole, therefore this is worth entry
#4463 (added as 'Hunting Hawk Nebula' as submitter left name up to our choice)
#4480 (Pale Red Dot)
#4482 (added as 'Empyrean Depth Nebula' as submitter left name up to our choice)

Proposed POI For Archiving
In an effort to reduce low quality POI, the following POI are being proposed for movement to the 'Archived' section. The reasoning is listed along with them. If you have a good reason these should not be archived, please comment why. Planetary nebula are particularly being targeted due to very large number of low-quality entries.
--
Zoe (Syroifae CZ-S c3-1) - This POI is literally just an ammonia world. There does not appear to be anything special about it.
Atlantis (Thailau KN-Q d6-3) - A water giant with a class-I gas giant in orbit. There are currently 603 known examples of this combination. The POI doesn't describe anything else unique or noteworthy about the system.
Brothers in Genesis (Myriesly QC-M d7-3213) - ELW and AW in same system. Rarity on this not high; minimum of 267 systems known. (More likely around 750-1000). Not much else to sell it.
The Phare (Ooscs Freau VY-Z d1670) - The POI is a neutron with a ~ 40 LS landable planet, but we have other existing examples of much closer objects. Otherwise unremarkable.
Blood Nebula (Myriesly YE-R e4-3646) - Planetary nebula w/o much distinguishing features. Located in the dense galactic core, and right on top of another, more interesting PN ("Wulfric")
Northern Lazur Remnant (Myriesly MS-T e3-3831) - PN w/ generic description and no pictures.
Athaip Wisteria Nebula (Athaip DW-N e6-3063) - PN w/ generic description and no pictures.
Jasmoria (Hypoe Flyi AB-W e2-2811) - PN w/ generic description and no pictures.
The Quaza Tron Nebula (Kyloaln XP-O e6-8630) - PN w/ generic description and no pictures.
Cobalt Skies (Kyloarph NC-V e2-1719) - PN w/ generic description and no pictures.
Aegel (Wepae XE-Q e5-236) - PN w/ generic description and no pictures.

| Name: | Roche's Twin Daughters |
| Game map search ref: | PRO BRIAE WD-C B13-3 A 6 A and PRO BRIAE WD-C B13-3 A 6 B |
| Description: | "By all accounts, these moons should not exist; The tidal forces acting on these moons is so great that they should have ripped each other to shreds by now." - CMDR "Sky Captain" Pasley, on the Roche's Twin Daughters Moons: Rachelle (A 6 A) and Pascale (A 6 B) This pair of impossible twins sport an amazingly close orbit around planet A 6 and each-other (around 4 Mm), circling around in an intimate and endless dance while A 6 looms over the scene. Numerous water geysers dot the surface of each moons, no doubt from the strain put upon by tidal forces. At night, Rachelle becomes a sea of frozen water, trapped in a single frame as A 6 looms overhead, geysers launching tons and tons of water every minute. Much like with most other Roche worlds (that being, worlds extremely close to a parent body's Roche limit), Rachelle sports an amazing close-up view of A 6's rings as they pass by. Pascale, on the other hand, does not offer a close-up of A 6's rings, but instead provides an out of this world view of both Rachelle and A 6. Pascale sports an amazing set of pastel colors during the day, dull yellow fading into a jade green, rocks dotting its landscape as Rachelle glides in orbit overhead. Like its sister, Pascale is dotted with water geysers all over her surface. As for the names, they were made up on the spot, since Roche only had a son, hence the fact that "these moons should not exist". |

I need to get rid of some bookmarks so I'm just going to leave this list of unmarked nebulae and hopefully, some other commanders could submit these here.
Here are the Nebulae:
Here are the Nebulae:
| Nebula Name | GalMap Reference System |
| Nuekau AA-A h83 | Nuekau BK-Z d44 |
| Dryoea Gree AA-A h66 | Dryoea Gree BH-P c8-222 |
| Floarph AA-A h49 | Floarph OY-Z d13-3 |
| Grea Hypooe AA-A h44 | Grea Hypooe XJ-I b26-1 |
| Bya Phlai AA-A h2 | Bya Phlai QI-R b37-0 |
| Iowhaih AA-A h42 | Iowhaih GY-B c16-0 |
I use EDSM's bookmark and dashboard feature for these kind of things.
Ah, it wasn't synchronising, because it seems to want to force me to download the entire EDSM database - how do I just upload to it manually?
I don't have other pictures showing how close everything is in the Cannonball Run system. IIRC the worlds weren't lined up very well at the time.
Also for #4473 (not noteable, we have other bodies much closer to neutron stars. also system not in EDSM, need body logs.) : really? I've been to many solo neutron stars and worlds closer than 2000 ls have been incredibly rare. This isn't something that's orbiting a close binary either.
The orrery works well for this purpose.
Not really? (does it have to look spectacular to be worthy of inclusion here? It's a very compact system, all within 0.1 AU of the star. Isn't that noteworthy?)
This one should be in EDSM now too...
| Name: | Deadly Dance |
| Game map search ref: | Hypio Ploe UJ-R E4-21 AB 3 (C+Ca)+D |
| Description: | Things are going to get interesting between AB 3C and 3D at some point... (even more so because C is actually a binary world!). They have a 0.1 day difference in orbital period, so any close approach/collision won't happen for a few weeks yet - but the view should be spectacular at least! C: semimajor axis - 1739105.4 km, Ca semimajor axis - 5844.8 km. D: semimajor axis - 1772371.7 km. C radius - 2451.7 km, Ca radius 1026.4 km. D radius - 2227.5 km C orbital period - 3.5957 days (310672.6563 secs) D orbital period - 3.6994 days (319629.1875 secs) |

I take it you were trying to use EDDiscovery? You can also upload your journal files directly via the EDSM website.
(I know that you've uploaded them since, but still posting this in case you did it another way, so you know there's that as an alternative.)
If all you want to do is send your data without any of the EDDiscovery features, you can also use EDMC to submit data instead. It sends to EDDN which EDSM will also be able to use. Unless I've severely misunderstood something.
If you also don't want to download the whole EDSM db into EDD, you can restrict that. Tools->Settings->Star Data Download and choose the galaxy sectors you want.
Sorry, I meant a shot of the orrery showing the data for the outermost of the close bodies. So someone can see just how many are within that many light seconds of the star. Show the “wow” factor.
