Dude, that's awesome! I've never seen anything remotely like that.
Maybe its time for an extended exploration foray...

Ee bah gum, ah remember that
I'm now chasing Elite I in combat and it is taking absolutely ages...
How about your good self? (I saw you've got a new squadron, like the name!)
I've seen a pair of two GGs orbiting a shared barycenter, but this... wow.
Funny you should mention that, I've been inching... nay, nanometering along towards Elite I in combat myself. Since hitting Elite (finally!) in October of 2021, I am now at 77% despite the Thargoid war, many (many, many, MANY!) BGS wars and high combat zones, and all other levels of murder and mayhem.Ee bah gum, ah remember that

Yep, last one became an epic soap opera, and now I'm ready to be hurt again!

Indeed, with 3 in this system as well as 3 x Cerbrus (didn't get the fourth one tho) some nice payout for <1000LY from Sol still - my SRV looks v.happy

Might as well change the oil and rotate the tires while it's on the lift.Indeed, with 3 in this system as well as 3 x Cerbrus (didn't get the fourth one tho) some nice payout for <1000LY from Sol still - my SRV looks v.happy

Looks to me like you're about to get run over and should be jumping out of the way...
What are you up to?
Playing a very old game called Finding New Employment...maybe you've heard of it...it gets very bad reviews...and I can verify that it sucks just as bad as it did "back in the day"...
Can well relate - all the best with that hunt... my least favourite game too ;p
Those two pages are about 2/3 of my current overall worth...
Well, i've just found an unscanned 39-bio system at just over the 1000LY range - i might scan some more of it or move on tomorrow... one 9-signal planet is enough tbh ...LMK if you want the address^
I've been playing since ~2018 and can remember when they changed the way exploration was done to the FSS system. Bit of a revelation that, and made flying to each planet a defunct modus operandi.
Since that functionality was introduced, I'd been using the same binds to move and zoom etc. based around the number pad on my keyboard. Today, I had lightbulb moment - and it's probably something most other CMDRs have been using since inception, but I, I'm sad to say, never even thought of it.
I now use the mouse to move around, the buttons for zooming and the mouse wheel for tuning. It's so much better. For me, at least.
Ah well, ya live n' learn

Y'know, I played "battleships" (or was that "minesweeper" before it became a desktop accessory?) with the FSS and my HOTAS for years in solo and up until someone mentioned you could use the mouse instead here in this thread... and the same with the DSS (more like "missile command", but on a spherical surface?) - i only "clicked on that" (pun intended hrhr) after using the mouse for the FSS
Yes I have the centre wheel on the omni-throttle base set to absolute tuning and the mouse wheel to relative - so major (rapid) tuning on the omni-throttle and minor tuning on the mouse wheel.
Similarly I have one of the "ministicks" on the omni-throttle to X and Y axis for rapidly moving viewpoint in the screen and mouse x and y for smaller adjustments.
So much better than my earlier complicated setup.

Good luck ...
Gather round the folding chairs and prepare for a slide show.
Penny touched down safely last night, and surpassed her dearly remembered grand pappy, Rupee Noon, for exploration mettle.
Some the file names got mixed up but I might have these highlights labeled close to correctly!
And the resulting paint job, my flying cola can has gotten all scuffed up sir! Uh oh, better call MAACO!
