This should be the hottest landable and walkable planet discovered so far.

So this could have been a record entry, but someone beat me to it. Commander @Cometborne had discovered this system on 07.11.2017, and Cmdr Voz`Avirrah was the first to mapt and enter the planet. I had found this planet in the databases.

Even though I wasn't the first to enter this planet, it was a nice trip here, and it passed the waiting time for the new update a bit.
System Phua Aub YJ-A f1890, the system is only 1,058Ly from Sagittarius A*.

It should also be noted that the health reading drops only slightly faster than on a planet with a surface temperature of 1,200°K.
So getting out and taking some pictures before you have to get back into the ship is absolutely possible.

It does look hot, although the hottest non-landable is considerably hotter but that's probably a function of the surface pressure, it's 51,171k with a surface pressure of over 172m atmosphere so I don't think we will ever get to land there. The highest landable I can see from ED Astrometics is Hypiae Ausms ZU-Y f33 2 with 11,000k but that's likely to be be an average, it doesn't tell us the max/min since that data probably wasn't recorded when the body was first visited. So yes you have a good candidate there!

Yes, I want to get to the 11,000, maybe even today, but you can't get off there because the planet has 5g.

Ok yes that's an issue isn't it! I had the same problem with my 45g find! Couldn't get out of the SRV.

I was in the system Hypiae Ausms ZU-Y f33 now , according to EDSM the 11,000°K planet should be landable. But it is not.

and after

the planet is now no longer displayed as landable!

That is fascinating. Love the picture, and the last one tells it all. :D

Shortly after start playing EDO, I landed on a small moon with just 10K temperature! Lowest I ever encountered so far. Wish I did not forget the screenshot. :(

I have been down to almost Zero K, in theory you can never get to zero so I wonder what the coldest landable body is?

Apparantly the lowest is 1K, I guess that's probably as low as they go.

Just 1K surface temperature. That would be really wild. Considering that even the cosmic background radiation is like 2.37 something K.

I had also made a video but completely forgotten to upload, I have made up for today.
Unfortunately without sound because an update of OBS had changed the sound settings unnoticed.

I think anything below background radiation would require some kind of cooling mechanism. I wonder if that could happen naturally even theoretically (even if it doesn't actually happen in our universe). Would probably be extraordinarily unlikely, if not impossible, especially if we are talking about the temperature staying that low for significant periods of time (days, months, years...) rather than being a very temporary effect that lasts for milliseconds.

Anyway, the high temperatures in the original post are essentially impossible in real life. As in, not the temperature, but a planet having such a surface temperature. There would be no such planet. Well, at least not with a solid surface, if at all. Rock melts somewhere around 1000-1500 Kelvin. Iron melts at about 1800 Kelvin. Even wolfram melts at about 3700 Kelvin. I assume 13000 Kelvin is enough to vaporize pretty much any material. That planet would probably become gaseous in a matter of days.
