Dances with Giants<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Planets A 1 and A 2 of this star system are twin gas giants in a binary orbit with an orbital period of just 0.5D. They orbit one another so closely, that CMDR’s who visit them will be treated to an amazing view of them both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally for CMDR’s who are prepared to wait and position themselves behind the more distant gas giant, they will be treated to a double sunrise when the main star shines through between them both. A must see for any traveler yearning for stellar sights while passing through this region of space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brairee KD-S e4-2776 (1,787.43LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Forgotten Twins Nebula<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While on the Distant Worlds 3302 Expedition, the Eleu Exploration Vessel Velsheda came across this beautiful double nebula while in transit from the Green Crystal to the Magnus Nebula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lyaisua SJ-Z e7708 (1,513.25LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Blue Rhapsody Nebula<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A planetary nebula 5,587 lightyears away from Sagittarius A*, between the Galactic Core and the Perseus Stem portion of the Distant Worlds 2 expedition. A large supernova remnant, with varying shades of purple and blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lasoae BF-A f810 (2,616.33LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Iris’ Missive<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the Perseus Survey this Black Hole was discovered next to a Green\/Blue Planetary Nebula. The close position (approx. 7 LYs) between these two stellar features creates a gorgeous view. It reveals a wonderful vista that cannot be seen inside the Planetary Nebula. From Blue, Green and Purple, the gradient creates an amazing rainbow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waypoint 8: Swoals IL-Y e0 (2,674.67LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Original arrival date: 22\/3\/3305<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meetup location: B 1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a High Gravity body at 1.4G! You have been warned!<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located 2,850 light years above the galactic plane, on the fringe of intergalactic space, is a large red giant Carbon Star with a sole landable planet in its close proximity. The orbit of the metal-rich planet is perpendicular to the distant galactic dust and stars, serving as a perfect backdrop for intense light with the Carbon Star in the foreground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the distance one can no longer discern distinctive stars, but rather, the galaxy appears as a luminescent haze of glowing light and fire. In the foreground rest a Goliath C-N Carbon Star 29 times the radius of the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its primary Neutron Star, this system serves as a distant point of departure for those trying to reach 3,000ly above the galactic plane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nearby are multiple black holes and Neutron Stars reachable only with jumponium or a Fleet Carrier at the upper limits of the galactic ceiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goliath’s Rest was discovered by CMDR Parabolus during the SHEPARD Expedition of 3303.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
