TT Aquilae; The biggest (or smallest) disappointment

[thundernuns]

So I'm a nerd and sometimes when looking for things to do I'll go on wikipedia and check out star catalogues and see if the stars are in game. I found a star 14kly from Sol called TT Aquilae, and I had a few other bookmarks in that direction so I headed out, thinking "oh man, a white supergiant visible this far from sol must be huge". This is what greeted me...

Spoiler

1.4 solar radius?? For 14,000ly??? At least I have my name on it...

Nice find. Sorry it's bitter sweet, but finding an untagged real world catalog import in Elite UNDISCOVERED this late in the game is genuinely impressive in it's own right.

Indeed. I'm quite surprised that there was still one untagged that wasn't just a number-designated system. Congrats on your discovery!

Well maybe I'm a glass-half-empty person for being disappointed, I'm glad you guys enjoyed it
