| Here's my entry:
Something I found using my automatic explorer. It's in a system (close binary) of 7 planets (3 with life, all temperate terras), in which there is a planet-moon pair of almost equal sizes. RS 8403-326-8-4874380-72 4 (and 4.1). Looks like a nice place. What do you think?

Both places look pretty cold and dry. Personally I'd like to see planets covered in ice sheets.

So do ice sheets making up most of the planet. These two worlds have a nice mix of warm and cold deserts and fertile areas mixed with some lakes, but I miss perhaps some large mountain ranges. And I found it interesting that they orbit almost equally far from their barycenter and they are quite mirrorlike in appearance.

| That's a pretty neat binary planet; looks like two terraformed Mars-like worlds locked together. I bet the views of each other from their surfaces is impressive. I'll poke around on them when I get home tonight.
Aesthetically I tend to like terras with roughly 50% water coverage (Earth has too much ocean) with a good variety of topography. I also like violet atmospheres, but it seems like they are even more rare than the green ones.

Actually they don't exist, the closest you can get to that is to have a planet with the Neptune atmosphere model (which is deep blue) around an orange star. Then it looks rather violet.

That's a nice binary planet. I had forgotten that I modified my cloud shaders a bit - I think they look better with more cloud cover.

| 1) Im pretty new to Space Engine, but this one looks pretty awesome to me. Which I don't like so much is the color, but still an awesome one.
Added (05.03.2013, 21:11) --------------------------------------------- Hi, I've just found a few more planets, I thought they are worth to upload it, and post it on here.
2) The second one has a purple atmosphere, which looks kinda awesome in my opinion.
3)This picture is almost the best I've taken yet, you can also see the galaxy in the background, which looks awesome.
(you can find the pictures in the attachment, I accendetly uploaded them to my dropbox, so none could see them)
