Three Black Holes Planetary Nebulae
Upon getting the news that the next set of POIs and WayPoint 6 required a lot of jumps, I immediately sat down plotting them, and decided which course to take. Since most CMDRs where heading to the first POI straight away in a linear direction, I decided to change the course. I had a couple of hours checking the new POIs and the next WayPoint, the expedition organisers had planned, so to deviate from the original route, I decided to visit three Black Holes Planetary Nebulae. Of course, on the way I would continue scanning those biologicals as my next target was ranking Exobiology Prestige Elite rank III.
Apart from the numerous planets with biological samples, I also landed on a couple of closed orbits with closed ring proximity to a gas giant. These offered quite remarkable views and got out my photography enthusiasm to snap a couple of photos. At the same time I could rest and take small breaks since the voyage was way too longer than originally expected.
A couple of more jumps and I made it to Fojaae IL-Y e14 Nebula - This consisted of a Black Hole as the main celestial body. While approaching the system, one could easily view this immense nebula especially from its neighbour system Fojaae KM-D b13-5 which consisted of a binary star system. One was a M (Red dwarf) Star (Scoopable) and a L (Brown dwarf) Star.
Previously, while I was jumping to this nebula I came across an undiscoverable system that had an Earth Like World, a Water World and an Ammonia World. The find was one of the first I have ever done. Once I handed the cartographic data I was proud of stamping my CMDR name on such system.
What was next? A couple of Biological samples I said, so checked a couple of systems with K-type stars and landed over several terraformable planets. Scanned and hopped on to the next one. I had also found a particular landable planet with Ammonia atmosphere and another with Methane rich atmosphere.
Another rare Water rich atmosphere was in site as well. The one I landed on had a Fungoida gelata with bright red colour and Concha renibus which is a species of concha that relies on heat sources to survive. As the bisected growth increases in size. it sprouts a single stalk topped with an array of luminous fronds that facilitate metabolism.
Once I made it to the first POI, I scanned the system and DSS a particular nested moon with a radius of 155km. It was rather hot as it had silicate magma volcanism. The system was Eullobs EL-Y e7 (Fireball Fumaroles). This rare white supergiant system is located in the south end of the Perseus Crags. Planets around the main star have experienced incredible heating, with most having no volatiles left on their surfaces. Tidal stress in the A 4 D moonlet has disrupted the body's internals, releasing trapped pockets of silicates inside. The nested moon is planet 4 D A.orbiting 4 D.
Nearby a couple of Light years away was yet another Black Hole planetary nebula. Setting co-ordinates and started jumping to system Blooe Dryue AQ-X e1-11. Apart from the main star, this system had also two ringed ice bodies.
There was no doubt that such system had a lot of photographic opportunities so I spent a day scanning the bodies. My next destination was yes another Black Hole planetary nebula. Discovered a ringed Ammonia world and other interesting planets on my way there.
After a couple of more jumps up and North West from the first POI, I reached the Black Hole system Stroifooe QD-S e4-0. The nebula inside had a green colour this time. From a distant star, this particular nebula was different from the others I have encountered.
It was time to have dinner and rest before I started a long voyage to POI 2.
