The following permit locked regions has been added to the map (for now they are found under the 'exploration hazard' tag).
Most of these won´t show on the map until they have been trilaterated from outside the restricted regions. You can help us by submitting distances to the systems in this list.

POI Name: Skaude
GalMap Ref: Skaude AA-A h294

Desc update: "This incredible system (also known as 'Collection of Wonders') contains two black holes, a ringed M-class star, a ringed white dwarf, and a ringed neutron star. The M-class star is believed to be the largest known stellar body containing a ring system. A tourist beacon is set up near the M-class star."

POI Name: Arethusa
POI Type: Planetary Feature
Galmap ref: Skaudou TO-I d9-17

Desc: "This bright class A star is orbited by a single body, a massive water world with life. Perhaps a captured body, the explorer who found it named it Arethusa, after the nymph and daughter of Greek god Nereus. Arethusa fled from her home in Arcadia beneath the sea and came up as a fresh water fountain on the island of Ortygia. "

POI Update:

POI Name: XTE J1817-330
Galmap ref: XTE J1817-330

Desc update only: "This black hole was first detected in 2006 and classified as a low-mass X-ray binary, in which in-falling matter from a small companion star causes intense bursts of x-rays. The black hole is nearly 150 stellar masses, and the companion star is a class K dwarf of 0.60 stellar mass. Several smaller bodies can also be found in the system."
 
POI Update:

POI Nale: NGC 6357
GalMap Ref: Cl Pismis 2

Desc: "Also known as the Lobster Nebula, NGC 6357 is a highly distinctive nebula situated on the near edge of the Norma arm. Due to its prominence, NGC 6357 acts as a navigational marker for explorers heading to the galactic core regions.

The nebula contains open cluster Pismis 24, which contains a score of huge class O stars. CL Pismis 24 1, once believed to be a single star of over 300 stellar masses, was later found to be a binary pair of O class stars (Pismis 24-1NE and Pismis 24-1SW), both of which are still among the most massive main sequence stars known.

Hello,

I have to report what appears to be a bad POI entry.

POI NameL The Rings of Atreus
GalMap Ref: Lysoorb FW-N e6-17

The description of this POI: "The system has two bright T Tauri stars with rings around them" does not match the system; it does not have T Tauri stars with rings. See attached photo.

POI Update:

POI Name: Spinney
GalMap Ref: Pueliae QT-R e4-0

Spinney no longer spins :(
The description of the POI infers that the Herbig Ae/Be main system star spins fast; however, an update may have broken this star, because it definitely does not spin fast at the present moment.

I have noticed this for all the high-spin rate stars, which is a shame.

ArachAu, awesome screenshots! [up]


I hope this format is ok and that these locations might be added into the game at some point. These few locations were found and tagged 1st by myself.

Chronverge, I've added Brothers in Genesis from this list as its the only one that is pretty unique (an ELW and Ringed Ammonia World in close proximity). :cool: It'll appear on the map once its coordinates have been generated in EDSM.

New POI:

POI Name: Garmany's Treasure
GalMap Ref: Skaude AA-A h216

Desc: "This system contains 5 different class O stars, the greatest number currently known in a single system. The main body is a O8 giant, in orbit with four so-called "zero age" class O bodies. The system is named for astronomer Catherine Garmany, who did extensive work on OB star associations and created the Galactic O Stars Catalog."

Image forthcoming.
