Name:Ring Quintet and a drop of water
Game map search ref:Gludgeia XP-P d5-41 10
Description:Gludgeia XP-P d5-41 10 is a ringed gas giant that is orbited by 4 other ringed gas giants and a water world. All planets are in close proximity and can be viewed together. The water world is a shepherd moon of the gas giant, orbiting inside the radius of the parent's C ring, which is the 3rd largest ring in mass known ring in the galaxy.

Name: "The Racetrack"
System: Slegou LU-N b21-0
Type: Planetary

Desc: "The first planet of this system has an exceptionally thin ring of 231 km width. Pilots can find some fun here by racing around the ring at top supercruise speed. The ring also has a shepherd moon very close to the rings. The moon orbits the rings in 2 hours and 53 minutes, giving excellent and dynamic views. The planet itself is in a binary orbit of 7 and 1/3 hours with another planet; all three are landable and provide great views."

Name: "Close Shave"
System: Gludgaa PD-A d14-9
Type: Planetary

"The 6th planet in this system is a life-bearing gas-giant with rings, and the first moon of the planet is exceptionally close to the rings - barely 250 km separate the planet and the rings! Stunning views of the rings can be found here, and more adventurous (or patient) pilots can try to fly in normal space from the moon to the rings. "

Name: Taylor's Ring (For Elizabeth Taylor's famously gaudy wedding ring).
GalMap: Sifou MU-N c7-0 1
Description: This Class IV Gas Giant is only 23 ls from its host star and has a very small ring for a Class IV, only 12,000 km wide - 1/12th the diameter of the planet. The planet may not sparkle like a 33 ct diamond, but the views it provides are no less striking!
Discovered during the Celebration of Early Astronomy expedition, 3305.

Description: This apparently ordinary icy moon bears a dark and ominous omen the unprepared traveler must beware. In what may be the the closest sighting of the Great Old One since Gusaf Johansen millennia ago, The Elder God Cthulu has been seen imprisoned upon this world. How he who lies dead but dreaming has managed to project himself thousands of light-years from Valparaiso, Earth, of the Sol system is a mystery currently under investigation by the Miskatonic University, also of Earth. Experts at the university advise all commanders to avoid the planet at all costs unless properly supplied with Elder Signs, and even then only to approach with extreme caution. The university adds that viewing the planet from its close-orbiting moon should be a safe option. Contact the Miskatonic staff before traveling to R'lyeh II for more details at https://www.miskatonic-university.org/.

Incoming lawsuit from the various copyright holders in 3... 2... 1...

Nah, just kidding. Although the debates surrounding the copyright status of his works can be interesting. In the EU, however, they all went into the public domain in 2008, so it's all good.

The more I look at this, the more amazing it is. I think it could use a resubmit with a better description and a route (these are the lowest known ELW's).

The name is definitely not that great. And a better description is needed. How did you confirm these were the lowest known ELWs?

I am at The Grill at the End of the Road (Ceeckia ER-I b43-0 1a 4.8°S 80.5°W) right now, and I can tell you that the Silicate Magma Lava Spouts have returned. They are Geological Signal №19 of 31, and are currently at 4.96°S 80.55°W, but head for -4.8 -80.5 anyway and you still can't miss them.
