Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

Are peduncles scanable? If so, what treats do they
Greetings!

Yes, they are scannable. When you encounter a variety (i.e. Roseum, Flavium, etc) for the first time and scan it, it goes to the Codex and you get 50,000 CR. This includes the notable stellar phenomena and geological and biological spots in planets.

Brill, thanks. I knew about the Codex award but not what the alien "lifeform" offered up.
 
I finally made it to Hillarys Depot (eew) in mostly one piece. Stage one is complete. I'll keep the data I've acquired since I reckon I can survive until it's worth a lot more.

I have 36 of the 50 markets I need to unlock Cheung. I'll do that later.
The thing with cartographic data is it always fetches the same price when you sell it, so unless you want to use it to persuade a faction or engineer to like you you might as well sell it while you can.

Edit ninja’d by the usual suspects again.

It's always nice to have a second opinion. Particularly from you, aRJay. You seem very smart.

That was only a half-joke by the way.
 
Hah! Me too and very much a case of serendipity as I was just playing with my beam on O Ren Ishii and wondering if I should change to a pulse.
Lol. Tanya is 7% Competent. :ROFLMAO:
Just picked up the unengineered Cobra for some combat.

This is great fun. 2 small fixed beams, 2 gimballed multi-cannon, Class 4 Bi-weaves. In a HazRES letting the cops select targets and take their shields down.

I am attempting to dock at Attenbourgh's Watch in The Lagoon Sector, but don't seem to be able to get closer that 4.81Mm before being thrown out of FSD with a too close warning. I tried it from 3 different angles now and the same tthing happens.
 
Here's a shot of me looking directly down on the base. You can see the planet to the right.

When I go to my orrey, it appears to show I'm on the other side of the planet.

Here's where the orrey say I am.

I've got A5B targeted. Technically, the planet should be obsuring my view and the base is in front of me to my right.
Here's my view from the cockpit. A5B targeted with no planetary obscuration.

When I target the base, it suggests it behind me!

Given the level of Chuckle Brothersesque flying I see on display here, I feel safe in the knowledge that Dyson will be paying the bar tab at Jaques Station.

Though, in fairness, the reason I didn't upload my landing on Hillarys Depot is because my approach was so bad I had to boost my way down to the planet's surface.
