New Heaviest Body.
235 G. Carinae B 1 at 601.0333 Earth Masses.
We should definitely have a category for heaviest body overall (including gas giants) ... the current record was for non-gas giant planets.
In other news I've found my next target ... and it seems that every other trip the target gets further and further ... final goal region now is 22k LY away with 3 intermediate goals at 4k, 5.5k and 11.5k ... lets hope I keep my sanity during this trip

Just make sure you can reach your destination, I set out for a nebula 11k away and silly me did not check. after 7k, I started to struggle to make any jumps, until finally I was beaten by a minimum 40ly jump. On closer inspection of my intended destination I would estimate the biggest jump would have been 150ly to get there.

Going sort-of towards the center of the galaxy ... so if anything I might have the opposite problem .. (too many stars to be able to pick out a direction
)Here's a preview of the first 2 stops:
the 4k stop .. a LOT of B stars within a ~100Ly * ~100Ly * ~20LY area
2nd stop about 5.5k out ... these stars are all in a ~20Ly x 4Ly x 4Ly area ...

Heh yeah, now that I look at it, 600 Earth Masses is nothing for gas giants. I must have been thinking that the dot was a comma.

Nice. After a couple of nearby sight-seeing runs, I've got my Type-6 up to a 27 LY jump range, so am now following a similar real-world observations track in the direction of the Eta Carina Nebula.
Updated Op
I've added categories for gas and non gas, and good luck on your journey
Added as furthest distance between two imperial systems, also added catagories for fed, alliance, and any two inhabited systems

Here's the nighttime view of my first target, from just outside the group.
Note that they're not associated with a nebula; that's the Milky Way in the background. If anyone else is interested in exploring them, they're relatively close by: the front of the pack is only 370 LYs from Lave.
The closest star is...
V518 CARINAE

You should have followed my #298 postNot sure if this "record" should be a part of this but a suggestion is to have Most Income from a single system.
Would actually be fun to se what us Explorers sell our Data for
So if you put this "record" on the list , here is my contribution
I am sure that Quince to Fehu is even further but I cannot verify it now - I am going to do it when I am back in Asp but the record should go to martianmar (he deserves it for finding Quince).
Edit: BTW, for the Federation it's probably 17 Draconis to Exphiay and I reserve the right to verify it, if I'm allowed to

And it may be that we'd need to distinguish between gas giants and terrestrials. The same system has a nice ball of magma that crushes the gas giant's temperature, despite the giant being inside the sun's corona. 2545K for V337 Carinae 6.

And a new heaviest gas giant. 885.8231 Earth masses for V337 Carinae 3.

Hi there
I have a breaker for the clostest stars orbiting each other:
I found two stars orbiting each other 2.24Ls away (Synuefe JP-G B30-3 A & Synuefe JP-G B30-3 B) with yet a third sun, a class T dwarf (Synuefe JP-G B30-3 C), orbiting them at 18Ls at Synuefe JP-G B30-3, 627 Ly from Alitoh

Seems CMDR Kamendjar found a new hottest star: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=89185
Or does it not count if he doesn't report it here?

I've update first post with latest records!
There are touching stars (ibootes) so I haven't included this category
Sorry, Kayweg posted an even hotter star

I know that there are far heavier ones out there but thats most massive one i found recently.
HIP 116617 5 with 2,750.5278 Earth masses.
