Rhuedgie KN-T e3-721 (1,295.67LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Breakthrough Echoes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discovered during the Perseus Survey, a gas giant of this system has three moons which are all ELWs, also one of them is ringed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally named ‘Breakthrough Echoes’ back in the early 3300’s when it was first discovered, this system was a winning entry in the 3307 Tourist Beacon Contest, and was renamed Children of a Giant by its original discoverer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Braisio FR-V e2-293 (2,367.64LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Braisio Juliet Nebula Cluster<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A planetary nebula with a black hole core.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rothaei SI-B e2047 (2,175.84LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dark Eye Nebula<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A dark planetary nebula obscuring the bright star field behind. Cut across with a blue-purple cats iris that makes the whole nebula look like a photo negative of a cats eye. This system was named by the Mobius Exploration Corps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phipoea HJ-D c27-5254 (2,809.92LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Silver Highway<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Body: 3 A<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hidden on the outskirts of the Phipoea Nebula is an ice moon, located between a Class 1 Gas Giant’s inner and outer ring systems, and very close to the former. Pilots are rewarded with an extreme close-up of this inner ring as it tilts away from the moon’s surface – so close, in fact, that it is easy to see individual objects moving in the belt as it orbits. The appearance is that of an enormous, shining, million-lane highway around the gas world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phipoea WK-E d12-1374 (104.23LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Crown of Ice<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sadly, this POI no longer exists in E:D Odyssey but was part of the original DW2 expedition. The details below are for historical reference only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Body: 4 A<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Orbiting a ringed Gas Giant, this is a rocky ice moon with some truly extreme geography. The northern polar cap is a mountain range somewhere in the neighbourhood of 50Km in height\u2026with canyons that can exceed 20Km in depth. The canyons themselves can be exceedingly narrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phua Aub VY-S e3-3899 (1,690.55LY)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Phua Aub Archer Beta<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Body: 8 A<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A plantery nebula with a black hole core. Best viewed from body 8 A, the rings through to the nebula behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
