Universal Cartographics Galactic Record Breakers

[PsychoFish]

As mentioned earlier, please remove my "coldest metal-rich planet" record from the book, because it is actually a "high metal content planet". I'm sorry for the game's bugs...


daily records:

SMALLEST O-TYPE STAR
S171 44 D WITH A SOLAR RADIUS OF 5.7382 - CDMR PSYCHOFISH

Spoiler

SYSTEM WITH THE MOST O-TYPE STARS
(tied)
S171 44 WITH 2 O-TYPE STARS - CMDR PSYCHOFISH
S171 6 WITH 2 O-TYPE STARS - CMDR PSYCHOFISH

Spoiler

that's it .. I see what I can find today

 

[Niddi]

I created this table for me so that I can get a quick overview if I have a possible record breaker at hand and I thought some of you might enjoy using it as well. I've tried to get all the numbers right but it's always possible that an error sneaked in. It's only for the stellar and planetary bodies. I can also provide the Excel-Sheet if anyone would like to have it.
It's up-to-date as of now.

While creating the table I've noticed several discrepancies between the Stellar / Planetary Bodies Records at the beginning of the Book and the corresponding entries:

Stellar Bodies Records:
Largest: 1420 Solar Radius vs 1400 later in the Book
Heaviest: Should now be replaced with the Great Annihilator A Black Hole
Coldest, Oldest, Most Bodies and Deepest Nesting: These show all "better" records than the ones in the corresponding entries later in the Book.

Planetary Bodies Records:
Smallest (Non Gas Giant) and Gas Giant with the most Moons: Same as above. The entries at the beginning if the Book break the records mentioned later in the Book.

SYSTEM WITH THE MOST O-TYPE STARS shall be HIP 97394 with 2 =

O-TYPE STAR WITH THE DEEPEST NESTING I think, HIP 97394 B being a tier-2 ?

COLDEST WATER GIANT IS HIP 96053 11 WITH 177K SURF TEMP

I add SM and C-J stars as they are clear in the description, do the other star types also have their own description?

Hi again Patau,

Yes C-N's appear like C-J's in their description so you could add it if you want. Here's an example:

Spoiler

The thing is that I think that you'll have to rework the C-star records. As far as I know there are no stars which are only described as C, they're either C-J or C-N. I might be wrong but haven't encountered a single C-star in more than 55'000 Ly of exploration.

Btw I have some new records:

• hottest Class L-dwarf: DRYAU AOWSY CT-G D11 6031 with 1'981 K

Spoiler

• System with the most M-stars: EODGOSTS ZZ-O B9-0 with 4 M-class stars

Spoiler

and smallest and lightest ringed gas-giant: PLAA AIN FG-Q B49-0 5 B with 1.6675 earth-masses and a radius of 11'478 km

[CMDR Gerakis]

HOTTEST EARTH LIKE IS SWOILZ ZQ-C D78 3 WITH A SURF TEMP OF 311K
&
EARTH LIKE WITH THE HIGHEST SURFACE PRESSURE WITH 3.62 ATM

I don't believe so... here is a pure C-TYPE (CARBON-CLASS) here :

sorry gumbie beat ya on that first one and the 2nd one i thjinks is not a 2nd m, looks like a binary added the water giant though

I can also confirm C stars do exist. Do we really need 3 categories for stars as rare as carbon stars ?

sorry as that planet is terraformable it goes in the terraformable section not the water world section, this will be changed when I get a chance this weekend I'm hoping to add a section for each type of terraformable planet

Hold on, do you mean the rocky planet, HMC planet and water world categories are non-terraform candidate ONLY ? Are we sure all current records follow that rule ?
For exemple, Gerakis' record with 21 high metal content planets, if one them is a candidate, it doesn't count and is invalid ?
Things will soon be very complicated around here

lol I guess we need more staff, patau....

please post your records according to these instructions

Thanks for showing this Gerakis. Can't believe I've scanned more than 20 C's to get only C-N's, a single C-J and no pure at all. Bad luck I guess.

How about a record for rings:
"Greatest separation between two consecutive rings"

Yea? Nay?

 

[Virgil Kyle]

have you checked the book? or are you looking at list on first post?
we have a section for earth like worlds, this is only for non terraformed earth like worlds only, there are also pages for terraformed
also your record doesn't beat current record

Understood on the Water Giant records (hadn't checked the new record book), but that rule about terraformables is rather silly, IMO. Why judge a planet on a completely technical designation relating to what it may become, through artificial human effort, as opposed to what it actually is, by natural chance?

HMC planets can have no atmosphere and be terraformable, I believe, and by definition do not support life. A HMC planet, terraformable or not, with 0.02 atmospheres or less is exceedingly commonplace. A Water World, whether it's terraformable or not, with liquid water and life on its surface, and an atmospheric pressure of 0.02 atmospheres is DEFINITELY something to write home about! The next closest one (that apparently isn't terraformable) has 0.17 atmospheres. Mine beats it by a ton, but because it happens to exist in the habitable zone, it has to compete with completely different kinds of planets, outside of just other Water Worlds. How does that make any sense?

Do you see what I'm saying? Honestly, I'm not trying to be combative here, but this seems like a really silly rule. I hope you can see why I'm saying that.

I've taken a screenshot with each planet selected and put them all in a zip (screenshots in JPG format so the filesize is kept low).

And here's a picture of just the last planet (also in the zip):

couldn't find the previous entry in my backups, I think you've held it for a long time, so the record is reset

I created this table for me so that I can get a quick overview if I have a possible record breaker at hand and I thought some of you might enjoy using it as well. I've tried to get all the numbers right but it's always possible that an error sneaked in. It's only for the stellar and planetary bodies.

O-TYPE STAR WITH THE DEEPEST NESTING I think, HIP 97394 B being a tier-2 ?

too late for the first one and the second one both are 1st tier as they are orbiting a centre of mass not another star

I can also confirm C stars do exist. Do we really need 3 categories for stars as rare as carbon stars ?

too late its already complicated

good luck more like it I've only seen regular C types

yes that can be done
