this system is known as the 'Divinity Nebula', but many neglect to take the time to go and visit the equally divine ELW with a ring. Name a better tourist location than a ringed ELW in a beautifully coloured planetary nebula. The system near the center of the galaxy and therefore brimming with stars. To make matters even more exciting, the system features a neutron star in the heart of it. A mere 32 ships have ever passed through it, myself included, and I think this is the ideal opportunity to turn this into a beautiful, scenic destination, only a slight detour on the path from Colonia to Sagittarius A*.My commander name is Southclaw3, and I present to you, the Divine Earth

Commander name: Kzak
System Name: BYUA AERB HG-Y D19
Description: An Earth-like world around a massive 12.8 billion year old MS-class carbon star with 29 solar radii, ca 13k LY from Earth. The Earth-like world, the 5th and outermost planet, is as distant from the star as Saturn is from Sol. This is an extremely rare find, when I discovered this ELW it was the 2nd to be found around carbon stars in Elite. In the time up until present day, a few more have been found.
In addition to the Earth-like world, the system has three terraformable worlds, of which one is a moon to another terraformable planet. The solar system is pretty much midway between Sol and Sagittarius A*, and offers a pleasant view of the galaxy's denser regions below itself. The solar system might also be a suitable location for an observatory.

Here is my entry
Commander uraniborg (PC)
System North America Sector DQ-Y d9 (body BCD2)
Interesting features: views of the North American and Pelican Nebulae, orbiting 2 close class M stars with an L dwarf nearby, also a Water World very close to the ELW

Information:
This system is 7496.31ly away from SOL. It contains
- An ELW;
- A terraformable Water World;
- 3 terraformable HMCs and 5 HMCs which can land (Two of them have thin atmospheres. I can't enter the Odyssey for some reason, so I cannot determine whether there are creatures, so sorry for this).

System: Froags XY-S d3-3448
Earthlike: Froags XY-S d3-3448 A 5
Commander Name: Savenger
I discovered this gorgeous system recently on my first trip out to Colonia, and ended up spending a few days just flying around taking pictures of everything. It acted as an oasis on my trek out, a break from travelling that refreshed both my body and soul. Having mapped every inch of it, (in my head canon at least) I've claimed it in honour of my sister. One day my Commander will retire there. But not yet.

Details:
- Binary System with two particularly pretty stars: a white/blue Class A and a white/yellow Class F. 23 planetary bodies, all rocky bodies.
- Beautifully blue ELW orbiting main star.
- Three Waterworlds.
- Five terraformable planets.
- Two landable planets, including a gorgeous ringed High Metal Content world. (In Horizons at least, probably more landables in Odyssey).
- Two pairs of close-orbiting binary worlds.
- Prominent view of the galactic plane.
- Some particularly dense star-fields close-by as a backdrop. (See Image)
- Just off the main Bubble | Colonia trading lanes.

System: Hypiae Aurb NH-L C8-63
Earthlike: Hypiae Aurb NH-L c8-63 2
Commander's name: Xelaxs
distance from the Sol: 25,353,59 ly
found this system by chance, on the way to Beagle Point
this earth-like planet and the ammonia world (which is suitable for terraforming) move in orbit around each other, they have almost the same size
there are really many worlds with black holes next to this system
in 25 years there is a planet with a gravity of 11g that is suitable for landing

System: 137 G. Carinae
Body: 137 G. Carinae C 6
Like a tourist brochure you say? Not mentioning the rings, with a three-star sunrise, and a sunset view of Barnard's Loop and the Witch Head Nebula, I dont see a better place to visit over the holiday season! (relatively speaking of course)

Earth-Like: Body A3
Commander: White Zephyr
A unique system located ~17,000 ly past Colonia inside the Segnao AA-A H50 nebula.
System details:
- Binary star system. Primary star is Class A, secondary star is Class F.
- Earth-like world (Body A3) is in binary orbit with a 77,067km Class III Gas Giant (Body A2) around the primary star (Class A).
- There are 10 total gas giants in the system, 8 of which have rings. The gas giants have a total of 35 moons.
- Moons B5D and B5F are landable with 100% Ammonia atmospheres.
- Each moon has 5 exo-biology signals.
- Of the two, Moon B5D is the most remarkable:
- Notable biologics include: Tussock Cultro, Osseus Spiralis, Fungoida Setisis, Frutexa Flabellum, and Bacterium.
- At sunset and sunrise, the sky turns a gorgeous neon green which compliments the reddish/pink hue of the nebula above.
- Moon B5D has a moon of its own (B5DA) orbiting in close, making for some breathtaking transits.
- There is a stunningly large impact crater on one side.
- Moons B3CA and B5A contain Bark Mounds (no atmospheres).

In-game commander name = CMDR ELEVATORMUSIC
Name of the screenshotted system = HYPHEERLD FW-L D8-31
What makes this system interesting and a strong potential tourist destination = One of forty eight bodies in the system, the Earth Like World (screenshot#4) orbits next to the only other terraformable body in the system. The system hosts five stars and five different types of gas giants. Two of the gas giants host separate types of life: water and ammonia (screenshots#2 and #3 respectively). This system resides within a concentrated cluster of nearly four thousand explored systems in the shape of four 100Ly^3 cubes (screenshot#1).

(Submitted by CMDR Amaya Matsuda)
When one sees the untouched earthlike world in this system third from its star with a lone moon orbiting it, one can't help but think of how Earth itself must have looked in the distant past. Relive humanities first steps into the void as you travel from this world to it's moon, experiencing your own Armstrong moment as you step foot on it's surface for the first time and look up to see that vibrant blue pearl in the sky.
Ponder the past and where we all came from, then consider the hope of the future and what could be as you realize that this moon itself is terraformable and could one day be as vibrant and lush as the planet that now hangs in the sky before you.
Then once you're done contemplating get ready for adventure on moon 4a of the next planet over as you set out on a exo-safari to discover not one or two but seven froms of exotic extraterestrial life!
With the mix of the nostalgia of the past, the hope for the future, the comfort of the familiar and the excitement of the new and unknown this is a trip you'll surely remember for years to come!

@Raven DEVega an in-game photo is required in order to be considered, you only submitted a system map. 
Hi CMDRs...I'm planning a route on the Spansh ELW plotter, in a loop for easy fun, and now I realize I would have about the same route any other pilot would have so a waste of time. Then I realize my chances of increasing ELW potential would only occur if I changed my jump range to something very huge, even for my ship, then the search result plotted would be wider area and get me less traffic...does this makes sense...??
