| Was out exploring Nebula today, n stumbled upon the Omega Nebula, only a few light years from Trifid Nebula. In the Omega Nebula, there are two dwarf stars, a red & orange. I find I've become quite fond of dwarf stars. lol
This is a stunning red world with two small deep green seas. On one pole, there's a steep range of mountains, full of craggy tops. The temperate regions are much flatter, but near the seas, there are some lovely views.
(wishlist, the game needs an analyser to determine geology and liquid types).
This world is definitely my new favourite.
Gravity is bet less than Earth at .8, Atm is bit less than 3/4 Earths at .7. Rotaton & Orbital period are locked at 42.5 days. At only 1b yrs old, odd that it's tidally locked, would've thought it'd had a moon at some point. I think I take this too seriosly lol.
Showing Warm Terra, Red Dwarf Star & Trifid Nebula in distance.
Mountains near one of the poles - wish I could tell north from south. lol
The sky here gives everything in the sky a red tinge, this is the orange dward + a moon.
Binary setting. Two moons precede it & two trail it tinged red.
Omega Nebula, couldn't help adding a flare from second binary
Since we can easily share journal entries now, I figured rather than give you the coords, it'd be better to just give you the journal entry so you can add it to your journal (journal.cfg).
Enjoy

| Here's a couple of others from the same system around a Gas Giant & Selene & Desert Moon (really a Venus like world).
Triplet
Very Sci Fi shot.

| That gas giant is beautiful in that lighting. I really like how sharp the textures get rendered.

| Yeh, I thought so too. Originally I hadn't noticed that (how could I miss it lol), I was trying to work out the shot with the nebula when I noticed it. Took me awhile of fiddling with my position to get them both in the right spot.
The one above with the green sea, red dwarf + 2 moons took 6 months of game time to make happen. lol Had it running on 10 ^9th time advance. lol

| Another thing I noticed is that the whole system has a cloud of asteroids around the same distance that the oort cloud would be in the Sol system. Here's a screenshot with orbits turned on. The sold gray ring mass are hundreds (thousands?) of asteroids.

| Wow, I'd noticed the roids, but hadn't turned on the orbits. Seriously impressive density of those roid orbits.
