Universal Cartographics Galactic Record Breakers

[Agony_Aunt]

Dear fellow explorers, just ask if anyone else has spotted this bug (which i dutifully ticketed)

I decided i must have generated quite a bit of cash with my explorations, so returned to nearest inhabited system (a mere 200 LY away fortunately) and went to sell my data and spend it on some upgrades.

Well, i was quite happy as I had generated over 200k, but in getting it, i discovered a bug.

When i went to universal cartographics i saw only 2 systems worth of data to sell! I had a mild heart attack i can tell you. I sold it, went to another screen, came back, and then saw 3 or 4 for sale... sold those, switched screens, went back, once again, more to sell. Completely random how many, was between 2 and 5-6 that would display each time.

Anyway, a bit of a pain, hopefully it will get patched soon.

Biggest data sell was around 37k. Not sure which system it was. A few contenders. One which had 2 earth like worlds. Another which had around 5 metal worlds and an asteroid belt. Not sure.

Will be heading out again once i've spent a few credits.

I read they had made a change to stop some crashes through the Stellar Cartographics, maybe it's linked?

L 26-27 A 1 is the largest planet I've seen with Amonia based life.

I've still not seen a Class V Gas Giant yet... not a confirmed location.

L 26-27 A 6 is the most moons I've seen today (6 in total) but I know there are more with more...

Ammonia based life? Wow now that's pretty cool. How far out from Sol is that system? I can't jump on my game right now to find out.

Think my post here: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=66655 updates a few of the categories:

Namely: Hottest Star, Largest Earth Like World

I also think the temperature/pressure world should make it in the list

Some more details on the items in the link:

Hottest Star: HD 151564 A at 30865K
Largest Earth Like World: NGC 6124 SECTOR JC-V D2-20 6 with 16739KM radius and 12.8 Earth Masses

Highest surface pressure: BLU THUA TS-U D2-91 1 with ... : 11,348,989.00 Atmospheres (that's right over 11 million!!)
Highest Surface temperature(planet): BLU THUA TS-U D2-91 1 with : 11087K

 

[Vikinger]

Il guess no one can break this.
A planet that consist of 100% metal.

That's what I call heavy metal. Rock my world

And a close up of the planet it self. not much rust on that one Pure gold,,

Scratch my previous claim for hottest Star ... I have a new one:

Neutron Star at BLU THUA SS-U D2-91 A ... surface temp coming in at: 2,295,469.00K .... think 2mil K beats 30K easily for hottest star!! (pics will come up later in the thread linked above for exploration

 

[Patau82]

Added new entries to Op!
Nice finds carazvan, was just about to post surface temp and pressure I had 9731k and 8,477,716 atmos but yours win!
I did find smallest ringed planet Pollux 4A at 3,589km

You need to plant your flag on that one!

also found a few interesting system's
one with just a single brown dwarf COL 285 Sector QI-K A38-3, I guess you can just about call it a system
two inhabited system Canopus and Exphiay are curiously separate from the rest of the populated systems by about 80ly
I've scanned around the map and haven't seen any others
defiantly something fishy going on there as they are near the bottom of imperial space and one is a fed system...
Makes me think I should add furthest populated system for Sol

Ammonia based life? Wow now that's pretty cool. How far out from Sol is that system? I can't jump on my game right now to find out.

There's quite a few that have Ammonia based life, especially the Gas Giants... check a few of the ones near where you are... you might be surprised.

@Patau82I think you need to update the hottest surface temperature one... as it currently has a temperature of 11,000+ atmospheres...

System with two most closely located stars - Gamma Doradus


PS: Yes, I survived in this suicide run

Minimal distance between star systems: 2 718 686 Ls (Benoit and Zeta Doradus)

 

[Belisarius]

Most giant stars in a single system:
WD 1207-032

It has 3 giants with spectral class B (aside from 2 additional T-Tauri stars)

So ... updates are needed to some of the categories again after part II of the exploration trip found here: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=66655

Hottest star: HD 154873 C with 4,910,023.00K
Hottest non-neutron star: HD 148937 with 103,964.00K
Coldest Star: AUCOKS JA-B A13-6 with 283K
Highest planet pressure: HD 148937 8 with 655,836,008 atmospheres

Man, I wouldn't want to live in those systems...

P Puppis B - black hole (BTW, there are at least 2 systems called P Puppis in the Galaxy and I ticketed it):

The smallest - 0.0000 solar radius (probably it doesn't count as almost every black hole will have it)
The lightest - 3.5391 solar masses

Spoiler

The closest to Sol - 224.94 Ly

Spoiler

The closest to human colony - 32.88 Ly to HIP 38235

____________________________
I have found 100% metal planet, too, but it's not expected to be mined by humans, soon

Spoiler

Edit: So many commanders visited this system and there is still a surprize - largest gas giant: Maher Prime in I Bootis at 78,291 km

Lowest surface temperature - COL 285 SECTOR RN-Y B15-7 6 (not an easy name) at 20 K

Spoiler

Largest terrestrial planet with ammonia-based life - HIP 37224 5 at 18,216 km radius

Spoiler

 

[Patau82]

Will add all new entries and looks like a few new categories when I get a chance later tonight,
Lots of nice finds well done commanders
I found this system which has in its description:

say's Ad Pontes has 12 ice moons but when you check system map it has none:

going to ticket this one

Smallest Gas giant wtih ammonia-based life - COL 285 SECTOR GV-D B13-4 1 at 14,982 km

Edit: Jackson's Lighthouse !!!
Hottest star with surface temperature at 311,807,040 K (yes, over 311mln K)
Neutron star closest to Sol at 174.01Ly
Neutron star closest to human colony at 12.76Ly (Amemait)
Most massive neutron star at 13.4844 solar masses
(I ticketed it because it has population 0 but has government and economy. Perhaps it's not a bug because the system has less violent history - it's explored by design so everybody can see it on the map)

Edit2: I've thought I've found closest to Sol supergiant at only 210.83 Ly (HIP 38965 - F5 I star) but it's too small and too light, so I ticketed it. See for yourself:

[ipaxton]

Wow some really nice findings, I'm liking this thread keep up the good work, More pics! lol.

 

[carazvan]

Edit: Jackson's Lighthouse !!!
Hottest star with surface temperature at 311,807,040 K (yes, over 311mln K)

Damn what system is that in? ... is that a massive mass-wise neutron star?

 

[Patau82]

It's actually called Jackson's Lighthouse, had to check myself!
amazing star, here's the star on its the system map:

Solar radius of 0.000? shouldn't it be a black hole?

 

[Patau82]

Added new entries and categories to OP!
found another system with an interesting description, Tomas
says it has unique trinary planets, doesn't even have binary planets
Give me an idea I should start a new thread for systems with descriptions,
I love reading them as it gives you a bit of lore and background for the game
Oh yeah Tau-3 Eridani has 6 brown dwarfs all with rings

edit: that was a massive update to records, If I missed any get back to me

 

[Ender]

I am sure there are more distant colonies but for reference: Exphiay 313.9 Ly from Sol (it's explored)
For reference, as well: Canopus - closest to Sol supergiant at 309.15 Ly (colonised and explored, too)

Edit: and in full glory:
