Ha! Now, from that perspective of the ship, I'm remined of "Marine Boy" - or, more precisely, his dolphin friend, Splasher. I don't have a picture of Splasher dancing on his tail though.

What's that Flipper? Little Jimmy's caught in the reef and he's running out of air?
Flipper was the brains of the show

Yeah, Flipper and Lassie went to Juilliard togetherFlipper was the brains of the show
Interesting. It looks like there should be something in your post, like a picture or so...
Ah. Quoting your message reveals the missing part. Ther is a video hiding.
I am Aussie, so I should give Skip a honourable mention (she was the smartest in that show too)

I guess this new corsair is a two seater!
And it'll be a multi-porpoise vessel!
My work here is done.

Well done Tyres.
Hmmmmm, I think I'm missing out!
I have only been scanning worlds with exo biology on them so I can "fish"* them out.
I never thought to scan Earth like worlds.
Fish - Obtuse reference to previous post re "marine boy"

ELWs, WWs, AWs and terraformables get you some extra points, as far as I know.
Extra credits.
An ELW as a first disco will net roughly 4mCR. Same for terraformable WW and AW. Terrafornable HMCs can go to 2 - 2.5.

Thanks Guys, I live and learn.
I think I've done OK so far in my first 6 months but I do enjoy learning new things.
I always listen to those with vastly more experience.

If you are really intent on rank progress above just the joy of exploration, concentrate your searches by filtering the galmap. In my experience, it seems A, B and F primary star systems give, on the whole, better results in planetary value. YMMV of courseThanks Guys, I live and learn.

I'm not sure how new this is but I think it's accurate.

That looks very nice - is there higher resolution somewhere? :]
Doh... sorry
Hi
I'm just vaguely remembering this ya'all mentioning dolphins, but it was either in Frontier Elite 2* (or possibly Elite First Encounters) that had a mission or missions where you had to transport some dolphins somewhere?
I also personally think this mission was also a kinda reference to the Star Trek movie (where the idea might have come from) where they went back in time to save / transport a whale (The Voyage Home)....maybe, but it does appear 'suspicious' as the movie was released in 1986, and Elite 2 was released in 1993.
There again senility might be fast approaching.
What am I doing...just rounding up some missions I'm doing for my own Outpost station, trade based, nothing spectacular (gold, silver and palladium) but it's paying well. I'm also seeing if it has any marked affect on the facilities and other stuff in the system, (everybody living here are all extremely happy at the moment)!
Plagued by pirates though because of the stacked missions, and security in the system is next to s** all!...plus I can't fly my 'Tank' Cutter to the port directly, and I'm having to use a Mk1 Python to ferry the stuff from my carrier which I'm using as a storage depot in the same system. No problem though.
Edit ...* Pretty sure it was Elite 2
