| Quote isdebesl (  ) is it rare a selena has atmosphere? No, it's not very rare.

| I have once found a VERY strange planet. The only strange thing was the life on it, though. It had BOTH multicellular AND exotic. Also, if I remember correctly, it was green and orange too.

| This isn't strange, this is just a Titan with oceans of liquid methane, with exotic methane-based life forms living on the surface. This type of lifeform is actually quite common in the SE universe.

| Wow, nice find! I've found gas giants close to their star that size (they've actually been found in reality too!) But an ice giant? That's really weird. Look at its miniscule surface gravity...
I occasionally stream at http://www.twitch.tv/magistermystax. Sometimes SE, sometimes other games.

| Oh that's nothing here is one that has negative g's at the equator.

Love SpaceEngine!

| Wow! that density. This planet is just a spheroid of gravitationaly confined air!! and has that size due to the inertial forces generated by the rotation. More than a planet it looks like a strange cloud or nebulae orbiting a star (extremely tiny bok globule???). How can that continues to exist with that temperature? Is that big because that bunch of air has heated and therefore inflating the "planet" as a balloon? or in reality that airy object at that temperatures would be dissipated?

| Not sure this is an anomaly.
This is a binary system. Where is the second star ?

| Have a couple things to post. These are black holes in a system that are either orbiting way to close to the star or going through the star. I guess its more of a bug thing then an anomaly but i thought it should go here.

| Just found a solar system with 5 stars. Got no idea if it's really that rare (even though it must be extremly unstable) but I just found a 5-star system without a black hole! Did not manage to find a similar one, so I think it's quite a good shot.
At first they look like three stars, but what looks like 2 stars (at the right)...
...are actually 4!

| Not exceptionally rare, no. You can even find systems with much more than 5, and we know of a few in real life as well.
They aren't tremendously unstable, either. (If they were, they wouldn't exist very long.) Stability in n-body dynamics, where each particle is of a roughly similar mass, follows a sort of binary addition rule. I.e. stars group into separated pairings, and pairs of pairs, etc, rather than triangles or squares. The configuration is stable as long as no 3 stars stay at similar distances from one another. So stable multi-star systems may look like these, where each step up on the number of spaces represents a much bigger distance:
I (a single star) II (a binary, which may have any kind of separation) II..I (a binary made up of a tight binary and a single star) II..II (a binary of binaries) II..II......I (same as above, now with a single much farther out -- a quintuple star system) II......II..I (another way to make a quintuple: a binary of a binary plus a trinary) II..II......II (a binary containing a binary binary with another binary.) [That's a mouthful]
And you get the idea.
Unstable configurations may look like these: III (a triangle) I..I..I (a bigger triangle) II..II..I (a big triangle where 2 points are binaries and the third is a single star) I..I..I..I (a square) And so forth.

| Here's a septuple system (7 red dwarfs) RS 0-7-944688-366-118-8-9072373-10
They're separated like this: (II .. II) .. (I .. II)
I wonder if there are octuple systems..

| But the chance for them to get into such a formation must be pretty low, especially with a count as high as 7 :O...
Did not know that they are actually so common :O I now officially declare it my job to find the SE system with the highest count of stars (without black hole)!
