Kyloaln KI-S e4-1477 Blackhole is at centre of green and orange nebula showing a very neat looking light distortion effect from the blackhole
A view of the nebula from the outside
Kyloaln AA-A h627 (Hermes Halo) is a lot like like Heavens Lathe - huge ring around a neutron star
Lord of the Rings fans may appreciate the Palantir in the Kyloarph PD-I d10-4719 system
The attraction of this next system is meant to be a nebula in the sky that looks a bit like a Blue Whale - imagination is required. It was too high in the sky to get the whale in shot, but this view from a planet surface looks great
I love taking trips out in the SRV to break up all the travelling
Next stop was Colonia. At the time of writing I am still building combat rank, using engineers and generally running missions in a small bubble of humanity only 80ly across with skies crammed with stars.
I am planning an excursion sometime soon with more pictures, and maybe a time lapse video from the "World of Death".
Until next time, O7
