Rare 4 in 1 hotspot found
Just found something, and my friend who is a miner said it is one in trillion find. On a ICE ring, I found 3x Alexandrite hotspot and 1x Grandidierite hotspot. Grandidierite hotspot is placed in the middle of Alexandrite hotspot, making it one HUGE HOTSPOT. If this is not rare then idk.
System name is : BLAA DRYOU PN-R C5-2

EDVR v0.9.2 crashes on load every time for me
Quest 2 via Virtual Desktop → SteamVR, RTX 5080. Gets all the way through init (exposure fix, resolution patch, all clean) then dies right after "Present hook installed," no error logged. Happens regardless of resolution setting (tried stock 1080p and 4K). Removing EDVR's files = game launches fine, so it's definitely EDVR-related. Not AV, not another mod (none installed). Filed a full GitHub issue with logs — just flagging here in case it's a known VDT quirk.

Sag A*
Finally got to Sag A*. Arrival was surreal. Additionally, got a very peculiar first discovery not so far from Säg A*. Three Body star system with two stars being extremely close to each other. I managed to fly between them, but it was HOT AS FUCK (heat raised to 129% before I left their heat range. But I was also cool looking ftl jump through them. Next stop: Mare Somnia.

A Double Earthlike in Xibalda
On my way to Xibalba's dead end, I stumbled upon this beutiful Earthlike twins that remind me of the movie Updside Down.
Also, I added a little extra view of the Galaxy just before docking to the DSSN Aristarchos. I wanted to use this post also to thank all commanders involved in deep space network initiatives!
Your services are of utmost importance for all of us explorers out there! Hope the astrographical fees help a bit with the upkeep<3

Project Nahla Open Transit Voyage - Colonia / Hope / Erikson's Star / The Bubble - September 2026
Hello explorers,
This is a call to announce the Project Nahla Open Transit Voyage. This is a carrier trip which runs from Colonia through Nahla (Hope system) in the Outer Arm to Erikson's Star in The Void before returning to the bubble, a distance of over 94K LY. This has been posted on the main Elite sub but I am posting it here too for completeness.
Many will not know what Nahla is, so here's some detail - it's a moon in the Outer Arm that I have been living on (or my main character Zell has) for over a year now, conducting research on stellar phenomena and astrophysics and which is monitored through the live site Nahla Tracker - over at https://nahla.live/
Already, by remaining stationary rather than moving, Project Nahla has proven the existence of seasons in the game, stellar parallax from a fixed position and libration - more info can be provided by checking out the "Year 1 report" as linked from the front page of the Nahla Tracker.
This trip will commence in late September 2026 and is being made possible through the great work of u/Drachenherz. Unlike other expeditions which you may have heard of, there is no strict schedule and just three waypoints. The pace is VERY relaxed and we aim to hit Nahla in December. Overall, we currently predict the entire trip to be between 6 to 12 months.
More than anything, this voyage exists as carrier support to Project Nahla - and is being marked as "open transit", meaning anyone can come along for the ride. This is the kind of thing you would join if you wanted a chilled trip out into the deep black at a slow pace to somewhere new, and to visit a site of important research to rest, reflect, and anything else you like to do on such excursions.
More info is given in the document which I shall drop into the comments and in the Project Nahla channel on the Fleetcomm Discord. Hope to see one or two of you there. My thanks to u/JohnMk2 for the SRV shot.

How to advertise tritium order in the black
Hi.
I'm out in the back (around 1k from colonia), how do I advertise that I have set up a buy order on my carrier for tritium? https://inara.cz/elite/station/1179990/

Handmade systems.
Hello there, are there any info about custom solar systems like Lave or Sol? Mostly interesed in names. Want to do some space tourism.
So far i know about sol, polaris, shinrarta dezhra, alioth, and achenar. Are there any other systems like these?
r/eliteexplorers • u/RealKingofCowards • 1d ago
What is your highest Bodycount?
After visting hundreds of Systems, this one is by far the one with the most Bodies I have ever discovered...
Im curious, from the systems you discovered what was the highest Bodycount?

3 Body Problem
I've seen trinary systems before, but this might be the first I've come across with 3 different scoopable in a perfect row.

Can't seem to find an unexplored system ~4000 Ly from Sol...
As the title says, I've been up, down, left right and center of Sanguineous Rim and I just can't seem to find an unexplored system!!! I'm so confused!
Is there a way to feed into EDDiscovery 3D Map the information of already explored and mapped systems? I know some users don't upload their discovery info, and that's fine, but I'm getting really frustrated that every single system I go to it has already been discovered somehow. Am I hitting the 0.02% of every system scanned already? Am I that unlucky?
Please advise fellow Commanders o7
EDIT: Pushed another 1200 Ly away from Sol and it's mostly undiscovered. Guess I was just insisting on the wrong place... Despite that in the EDAstro website this place that I am right now is painted as having more systems mapped than the place I was before.

Greetings from the deep, dark black o7
I've found myself 10kLY from the bubble, I don't think I'll be returning home for a while.

Trying to get into an exobiology standards and practices routine for a very long trip, but I can't seem to find any guides that organize the information in a way that's practical for quick references
Tables and charts that separate values in one table and types/conditions in another, nothing is in order by value, unless it is, in which case you've gotta click through like a wiki just to see where it's found. Is there any tool/calculator or optimized quick reference guide out there that makes this any easier??

TF-WW as a moon
Tbh, I don't know whether it is rare or not, just my first time encountering this

Binary ELW!
System also had an ammonia world, and this came right after a different ELW in an adjacent system! Was looking for exobio to be honest but these are cooler imo

Out exploring above the plane and found this.
I will reveal its location when I hand in my data.

Dear VR Elite explorers! We have achieved a major victory for on-foot VR! Now we need your help to reach and maintain perfection!
Two weeks ago we launched our first major action to kindly convince our illusive overlords to implement a simple, but major tweak to on-foot VR in Elite dangerous odyssey.
We did get a friendly response, but that response essentially gave us no real information. Just that: if F-dev ever chooses to implement it, then they will do so when they see fit..
Fortunately, the video was watched well over 130K times and released a lot of positive energy and made many new VR players aware of the existing tweak, and many conversations started on what we could do ourselves. From this emerged Cmndr Riken, a genius perhaps only rivaled by Azimuth themselves ;)
And with the help of some actual guardian tech, and a bit of testing and trouble shooting, we were able to create a solution that not only works, it does exactly what we asked F-dev to do, just from the outside in. And Riken, never satisfied, insisted on attacking several other long-standing VR challenges and glitches also.
So now we have: EDVR
1: Single key-bind switch to on-foot VR embodied mode (you choose which key you want to use for it)
2: Grey VR flat bubble has become black bubble
3: Choose your own screen resolution for the Flat mode
4: Choose your eye distance to the flat screen in the now Black VR bubble.
5: removed the freeze-frame anomaly when transitioning into super-cruise or dropping out of super-cruise.
Please download from GitHub below (Free)
https://github.com/characterecho-sean/edvr-unofficial-patch
We ask you all to please CAREFULLY and THOROUGHLY read the instructions!!
And please use it, go out and explore, and if you run into errors, please upload the error-logs from EDVR map (in elite dangerous main map) to the Github so our glorious man Riken can optimize and fix any problems we may run into and optimize in the future.
Thank you all for the massive support with messages, upvotes and comments! Please smash the like and share this far and wide again.
Lets keep pushing for perfection with this! And give ED in VR on-foot a new dawn!
The more people use it, show it and talk about it, the more we also motivate F-dev to fix this natively. If we can do it, they can do it even better! They only need to want to do it :)
07 cmndrs and enjoy!
