I have never seen a Bacterium that tall!Out in the near black - decided on exo for a while. Straight off the bat, codex entry.

Um... you spotted my intentional mistake then. Ahem.
What I should have said was "Fonticula Lapida Amethyst" which makes a lot more sense. Well spotted. Now where did that bright pink face emoji go?
It's hiding behind that Concha to your left.
I think the Dolphin is the most suitable ship for exobiology. Seems to be able land in all sorts of cramped spaces and isn't afraid of craggy terrain:
Incidentally...
A question if I may: I'm using Elite Observatory (wonderful tool) but it does sometimes say "may host a marked biological" (or words to that effect). What exactly is a "marked" biological?

Is there a first footfall? Maybe someone didn't get all the bio's, only a partial job. Lord knows I've done that many times, I'd get disgusted looking for something and only find one or two and leave after an hour of scouring the surface.I think the Dolphin is the most suitable ship for exobiology.

I have no idea... most of the stuff I'm finding I'm getting first feet for.
In such a situation, I recommend to carpet bomb the patch before you set down. And watch your back
being a marked alien plant
To be singled out or targeted for harm or retaliation of some kind. Jessep was a marked frutexa after he alerted the vista genomics to the influence of the happy haulers pizza boxes within the specie's uniqueness radius. Soon a hauler landed on him and squarshed his root.

The 40ly jump range is adequate when a fleet carrier takes it into deep space first.
It starts and stops on a dime next to the next sample and there is almost no such thing as ground that is too rough to land on.
Awww what a lil' cutieThe Silver Pixie Sidewinder (fleet carrier launched) disagrees

Now I understand why there are all those happy haulers with an astronomical bounty on them...In such a situation, I recommend to carpet bomb the patch before you set down. And watch your back

Interesting angle. My eyes still struggle to locate where this ship starts and where it ends...The Silver Pixie Sidewinder (fleet carrier launched) disagrees

My brain yells at me "That's no ship, that's a portable CD-player!"...
I would have tried this but I didn't switch to the small ship surveying approach until after I was several carrier jumps from where my Sidewinder is hiding under the dust.The Silver Pixie Sidewinder (fleet carrier launched) disagrees

However the Hauler is not too bad at this despite being so much bigger.
I agree, he needs a leash for it so he can walk it around for it's morning constitutional.Awww what a lil' cutie
The similarities are eerie.My brain yells at me "That's no ship, that's a portable CD-player!"...
Indeed. Though the Silver Pixie didn't look as dusty.
I found a ice little potato today. Here's what Elite Observatory had to say about it:
Now, on the sysmap, I noticed the atmosphere type. I've never really paid attention to this before, but would this not suggest I should have been driving/flying/walking around under an ocean?
Not that I'm complaining as that one planet alone was quite profitable:

Given the pressure limitations of what we can land on I am not sure ocean is the right term, a steam bath maybe.I found a ice little potato today. Here's what Elite Observatory had to say about it:

I use the option in Elite Observatory to hide the bios that aren’t present not because of tidiness but it does mean I don’t get the Jim Bowen quote when looking at things like the Clypeus Speculem entry.
A nice little potato though.
Wait a moment. It says "human locations 1" on that planet. Errr ... qué? I'm about 3 Kylie's out of the bubble.
