Gosh indeed! I think the most in one system I've found is three, including a water world moon orbiting a water world planet in that one.

Not really. FDev controls it all in a very arbitrary way. Example: about three months ago I posted about how they are slowly but surely nerfing all mining payoffs.
Back when I first started, you could make good money core mining. Void Opals, Low Temperature Diamonds were worth 600,000 plus. Those are now essentially worthless as they're around 1/4th that now.
Then they hit the hard minerals. Just a month ago, Monazite was worth 800,000. It's now half that.
The only mining material that hasn't been nerfed into absolute oblivion is Platinum and even it is down around 30%.
So it's not as much capitalism as it is FDev saying, "well, too many people are doing THIS so let's make it not worth their while" and "not enough people are doing this, so lets make it worth their while". That's why they're increasing the payoffs on biologics - nobody is really doing it.
Well, that is one of the downsides of capitalism. If there is a shortage of a certain product, you can make a lot of money, as the consumers will pay almost any price you ask. But as soon as others get wind of it and jump the bandwagon, producing as much as they possibly can to earn a lot of money, you will no longer be able to ask those hogh prices, as there quickly develops a surplus, making the amount people want to pay for it plummet.
Again, this game doesn't work that way. At all.
Just going to drop this here:

Well, no prizes for guessing what my lunchtime play session is going to consist of.... 
The mission details gave no hint this is what I was lined up for.
Actually, its time to use the Abandon button...

We can actually view about 9% of the far side due to Libration. I remember as a youngster reading Patrick Moore about this with his sketches of the limbs.
Yeah, that's cool as heck.
Here's a bit more speculation from marx (writer of Observatory core).
I find it interesting that neither of these guys knows

Great screenshot that. Did you remember to map it as well?
As for me, even though I'm still almost 9,000 LY from Sol almost every system I arrive at on my way back to the bubble has been explored already, although I have managed to find some that were only partly explored. I guess the reason for this is because I've been pretty much following that Colonia Bridge route after I left that megaship. I guess I could have deviated say, 500 LY west of here and gone from there but I want to get back to the bubble asap so I can do some other stuff, such as on-foot CZs and there's still 174 jumps to Deciat...
However, maybe even more surprising than Argentina 1, Saudi Arabia 2 is that the system I'm in right now, with only the star already discovered has an Earthlike world and four other terraformable bodies.
No, that would be Vithigar, not me. See the Observatory thread.
Today I took a mission to kill 16 criminals, base unspecified. I determined that they only had 1 base to their name, so I went there hoping it would be powered-up and occupied.
This is me, descending upon the unsuspecting riff-raff who were indeed busily working away at whatever nefarious schemes they were involved in. Funny how they looked exactly like legitimate citizens. There were 19 of them in the settlement, as it turned out.
I left them lying in the dust and filth of the base. And I took their power regulator and a few other goodies, too. No alarms, no problems, no bounties.
Still, it felt a lot like murder rather than justice.
Anyway, I got paid.

Oopsie. My bad.
Just back in the bubble now after a fortnight roaming about doing exobiology. Which I found tedious and boring and... oddly relaxing. I can now understand why people collect stamps, I suppose. Was about to unload my exobio data at Vista and my finger was literally about an inch from clicking sell before I remembered the apparent buff coming this week to payouts. I don't need the money at this point in the game, but a bit more progress up the exobio ladder won't go amiss so I disappointed the already disinterested VG representative behind the counter and exited.
Meanwhile just picked up a couple of suits in the early Black Friday sale, finally get to sport the retro suit I've been eyeing for a while. But the rest of the arx are tucked away for those sweet, sweet stygian paints next week....

no, it a WDM, no option in concourse.I've no clue how to help with that one except maybe try a validate files from the launcher? If that's the one you use, natch.
You can hand in an Ody mission from your ship or a concourse terminal so perhaps try the other option to the one you're trying.
I'm clutching at straws, sorry
trying resync atm. if that doesn't help it will be a 15 million fine on top of the 117 million fine.
thanks

Even when you are a programmer (includes me) the only answer you can really give, is they could have built it to work either way.Here's a bit more speculation from marx (writer of Observatory core).

The carrier based Vista Genomics issue not taking the 25% does point to price set at time of sale. No guarantee....
But we already know that it clearly isn't.
I think they simply didn't bother taking 25% from biologics because there were worth so very little to begin with. When I come in with 100 million in exploration data, I typically have only 3 or 4 million in biologics.
I think they just figured the 25% from the exploration was more than enough.
That was quite some work... Snooping around at a nav beacon... Poking everything that had a "WANTED" sticker somewhere...
Star Moray has proven itself as a capable ship.
