I found that the biggest danger on the trip to Hutton was sleep. I got tricked into accepting a mission that turned out to be a trip to Hutton around what was my midnight. At some point I fell asleep, when I woke up my ship was damaged and inside the exclusion zone of the nearby planet. Don't drink and fly Commanders!
BD-12 1172 (Spirograph Nebula) is also a must-see. It's only a short distance further than the California Nebula, but it's a supernova remnant - a very tiny, super concentrated nebula that only spans this single system. When you go there, you'll find a giant blue star, and the space in the background is no longer black, but a very nice shade of green instead. You can see other nebulas from there, like Barnard's Loop, which looks very interesting against the green backdrop. There is a pink-ish landable planet that look very interesting with the blue/green lighting going on.
i agree, i have a bunch of pics from spiro! i would also recommend MINTAKA, West Veil! , Heart nebula!, and my fav if you willing to go the trip, Search crab pulsar in the jelly fish nebula! I have so many pictures and memories from my late teens while i was going through it in life, and elite exploration was the way i could boot my laptop up and fly around till i slept to clear my head, almost ten years later and i remeber almost every trip i took around the galaxy and my time with Radio Sidewinder as a key member! I have life long friends from Radio sidewinder and not only that i still have the patch i wear it on my jacket!
Some of us, I still have a couple more engineer unlocks before heading there. That said, I’m a little paranoid leaving the bubble on my own and missing out on a valuable CG... lol
@@NaughtyShepherd i did it in an asp explorer a few weeks back, going the slow way, took about 24 hours over 3 days, was really nice, got nearly 40000000 credits from exploration and discovered a bunch of systems never been explored at all before. Took the neutron star Highway back and that only took a few hours
Why you people like to lie? Why do you want to fool others? There is no such thing as a free Anaconda. The station has only medium ship pads. This is a crap lie that some low lifes perpetuate it every time. The "free" Anaconda is a fake crap for 4 years now. Nothing is free in Elite. Nothing. Not even the "free" Sidewinder. That is lended to you on start. Nothing comes for free. Grind, grind and more grind.
@@DowntoEarthAstronomy I am a bit late. On my first trip to Colonia today in my 70.3Ly jump range Phantom. Can I jump on your carrier during the return trip?
If you want to see things you don't necessarily see in cargo transport I have heard that picking up tourists and going to turist beacons is a good way to see more of the bubble.
My suggestions: The Witch Head Nebula. Not far from the Bubble, with gorgeous views and some cool looking stations. The Vela Pulsar. An actual pulsar we know about in real life, in a binary star system. The whole system is lit blue by the pulsar wind nebula.
What a great video idea. Edit fun fact: you can fly in regular flight between any two stations or bodies in a system. They are all loaded at once. The reason no one does it has more to do with the absurd time it takes. If you have an hour or two on hand try jumping down and flying towards a planet you're orbiting. You easily can fly to the surface or away from it or to the stations in orbit and such. It's a bit hard since the stations are moving quite fast but it can be done easily. The entire system loads at once.
You don't have to fly head on into Mitterand Hollow to catch it. Start from outside the gravity well of New Africa and get your speed above 1C, then just plot a path into the trailing side of the moon that doesn't pull you into the deepest parts of New Africa's gravity well. I believe the moon travels somewhere a touch north of 800 m/s so it's not hard to catch with a little planning, you'll also be able to glide normally this way instead of having to FSD cooldown and then reenter frame shift to bleed off altitude to land quicker. Just remember to keep your approach to a 6-7 second ETA so you can initiate the drop out of frame shift and not just slam into the planet anyway.
The gas giant in the Col285 sector came about as a result of Fdev hearing that the Minmus moon was made out of mint icecream so the had to beat it by creating a whole planet made out of chocolate lime xD
I wonder if the term "in the bubble" will carry far enough into the future. Future humans would pull up whatever interface they use to gather information to ask the question "Where did the term in the bubble come from?" - Search result: In the bubble term recorded as far back as 2019 when simulations of space travel required a new vocabulary to describe positions in space.
You always put out such great content, and you put so much work into every video. I really appreciate it, and you've helped me with Elite for a few years now. Thank you
Nice video! :) All these "places you should visit in elite" videos are slowly making me wanna play again, I should probably wright a list of all these cool places so I can plot a nice big route and visit them all in one long swoop. I really gotta upgrade the crap out of my ship first though, my little asp explorer has a jump range just under 50Ly but it still took me well over 400 jumps just to reach and return from the upper quadrant of our system heading towards the galactic center. I spent half a day jumping, found a gas giant with gas based life, then turned around and spent the other half of the day returning :D
One of the "starting player area systems" has a hollow asteroid base. Can't remember the name - might not be known by players who have been around a long time (I only started in October/November last year)
Great video...... but I am not in the bubble thanks to you (LOL) Seriously big thanks for the Colonia trip, you give us great content in and out of the game. Rock on
A word of caution about Hutton Orbital: not all ships have enough fuel to supercruise all the way there. If you get stranded, you can always call the Fuel Rats. (However you're not supposed to call them on purpose.)
Nice Video. i have been in this game since january and like your Information Videos. You helped me alot with your Tips and advices . Thank you very much o7
These are cool. But i have to say, visiting Colonia makes me want to kick my ass into gear and grind for a decent exploration ship and get back to Colonia. Im getting that itch to explore, that was lost dues to mind numbing pointless grind. However,having said that, this grind is going to have a purpose: To go back to Colonia and beyond. Thanks soooo much for this amazing weekend trip. I feel like this trip is a perfect teaser for deep space exploration.
Well good news, a new pre-engineered FSD was just added to the game with a superior jump range and it’s hella cheap until the 12th of March. Kick it into gear and grab tellerium, buy that drive, then shove it into an aspx and shoot off
The closest Asteroid base to Sol I know of, that I've visited, is Hannu Arena (Musca Dark Region IM-V c2-24) just a pinch out of the Coal Sack and EDDB list's its distance to Sol as 540.83 ly. BUT it ain't in a lovely nebula, I know. Thanks for the live stream re the making of this upload... so cool to see the finished product with the B-roll you shot. Take care Cmdrs and enjoy Colonia... I'll be thinking of you all from my little corner of Via Maris. o7
I wonder if Model of Earth in game has a maximum glacial melt by 3000+ AD? Will be there next rank and judging by no polar caps and all the hurricane/tropical storms in video it is probably pretty inhospitable anymore as it begins to lose the equator already but there are city lights so will be interesting for me..
The den in wolves of jonai space is a much closer asteroid base...also it was recognized by frontier as being one of the fastest completed cgs during its construction, we also drained the galaxy of precious metals for a week. HR 7047
You forgot 'VY canis majoris', 3rd largest known star in the galaxy and the largest in the game if i am not mistaken, just a few hundred ly from bubble
If you're talkin about Mars you hit the nail right on the head. Just think of the Fantastic world and fun it could have been to visit Mars had someone at Frontier not made the decision to make it a water world. That could have been the most fun place to visit of all, and now it's going to be zero. A big fat zero at that.
@@COWBOYBARNMAN To visit it to find out that there was once a civilization on it . Maybe similar to the guardian race ? Shame it wasnt left like that .
@@MrTimjm009 just imagine if you could fly over Mars and maybe someday land on it and visit the face and I believe it's called the MDM pyramid and the city oh my gosh the possibilities and the biggest Grand Canyon of the mall on Mars. Not to mention I believe the tallest highest volcano in the system. Yeah they really screwed up when they made Mars a water world. Thanks Frontier good job lol
@@MrTimjm009 Maybe Mars is not a total loss after all. I'm in SOL now, and I just took a closer look at Mars and it appears to be about 50% ocean and 50% land mass. So maybe there is a possibility that Mars can become a place we can land on and explore. I'm sure I must have taken a look at Mars before but right now it looks very interesting. So I don't know if they've made changes to its appearance or not but perhaps maybe I just never took a close enough look at it. When you're in Sol take a close look at Mars. It does look like it could be a interesting place to visit. Happy flying, CMDR COWBOYBARNMAN on the ps4
Suggest Lave .... The original origin of Elite, the Orange Sidewinder for target practice and, of course, Warinus (a much closer asteroid base but without the nebula)
This game is awesome. I love it in VR, its one of the best game I played in my shit life. I was born to early to explore the cosmos but in right time to do it in ED ;]
The stations in Pareco is actualy orbiting an unmodelled and invisible comet. There are screenshots of pilots in Pareco who are in the influence of a "Pareco Comet 2" gravity and there are reddit threads about it too. :D
There must be a lot of invisible comets around then, I've had lots of times cruising through a system to suddenly hit a gravity well in the middle of nowhere.
@@NyuuMikuru1 what is your budget. The best passenger mission ship is the Python but it needs some engineering. I would say if u want a bubble exploration ship with passenger cabins go for the Dolphin. Equip business class cabins in the largest optional and fuel scoop in the 2nd largest one. It should give u a decent 25Ly jump range without engineering
@Roger Out it's no fun just sitting in a fleet carrier and doing a journey. I want to enjoy the exploration too tbh. I just made a 73Ly jump range Phantom and I'm having a blast
6 to go. You could add some other rare sights such as doubled earth-likes, close binary moons (just found one pair with 3.6M between them), closely paired gas giants, Helium giants, Earth-like as a Moon, water planet on a Brown dwarf, etc. But the list would be quite long and if you'd show them what would be the point of going there. Thanks to tourist beacons many of these are already marked.
I'm not alone by any mean's, and will admit that I fell for the free Conda; HOOK, LINE and SINKER! Not only did I go there the first time, in attempt to get my CONDA, I did it in a large ship. Spent an hour looking for a place to land. The various individual's on the then PS4 forum, supposedly friend's. Informed my that there's no large pad, and I need to use a medium. Thus with that data, I flew back to GoldStein, switched to my Python, and did it again. Landed and spent another hour, looking through the dam menu's. And only found the mug. Realizing I was duped, didn't get mad, it's a right of passage for noob's.
Hi Dave, I see you are advertising the Hutton mug for sale, the real hutton mug can only be earned and cant be bought, just thought you should know this. I have also sent info to the leader, so he can confirm this you. The real mug is silver not white and as I said is only available as a reward from Hutton Group. Chris
@@Paradigmfusion That... Isn't true. You can only use SCA in supercruise. Individual ships do not have different top speeds in SC. You top out at 2,001c regardless of the ship. The assist is a flat 75% rate and is fairly well documented. Look into it or do the math on your end. It's absolutely a flat 75%.
@@Buc_Nasty well regardless it only takes 43 minutes to get there going full throttle unassisted. I've done that run more than a few times. (Great run to get caught up on the lore)
Off topic tangent but not sure how else to get it to you -- topic for a future vid? What can ED teach me about.... astronomy, astrophysics, you know space science stuff? I get that lots of science went into ED, behind the scenes and on stage but what can the game teach me about those things?
you can witness orbits in real time. You can see how relative distances work. It's a great way to visualize gravity. Supercruising about is great for the aspiring astronomer.
who else is going to do an everest style hike to tall mountains peak on foot in odyssey? im CMDR protheus talos, and on march 29, i'll be going to do the first expedition
Wait the radioactive greenie i went too was by colonia, in the galatic center! I didnt know there was Multiple!????? IM GETTING IN MY SHIP RIGHT TF NOW
Is a satellite with a short orbital period like Mitterand Hollow actually possible in real space? Or would that cause orbit decay to accelerate, so that such an object wouldn't be orbiting for very long?
You don't increase your jump range by 400%, you increase it by 300% for a total of 400% range. Increasing something by 100% is doubling it, 200% is triple and 300% is quadrupling.
Jackson's Lighthouse isn't the closest neutron star to Sol... 18 Camelopardalis C is (although my favourite was Lalande 25224's companion... it's a PSR series star and is the actual jump in star and very well placed for going up to Quince or heading out hubward). Yeah, 18 "Giraffe" C is 90k out from the star which is not convenient... but that's a lot closer than Maia's black hole companion to jump in. Which isn't even close to being the closest black hole to Sol in the game... there are plenty closer. For starters, right next door in HR 1185 (~20 lys closer to Sol, and half the distance away from jump in). There's a bunch out by New Yembo that are closer. And there's that notorious ship-killing system, HIP 63835 (several changes over the years have made it much, much safer)... 3 black holes in close orbit of an O star. HIP 34707 is under 200ly and right on the edge of the bubble near Jackson's Lighthouse.
I’m currently at the bottom of galactic plane and just found a system with 3 water worlds and 1 earth like world. How rare would you say that is? Been playing for a while and first time finding so much in one system
Joshua Cole I sadly didn’t bookmark it, just realized. I’ll search through my visited systems because I know the general area and I’ll let ya know when I figure it out!
@@TaSwavo what has speed got to do with it? as far as I'm aware neutron stars are the remains of supernovas, brown dwarfs don't have enough mass to sustain fusion let alone go supernova. The speed they collide as isn't going to increase there mass
if two brown dwarves collide, wouldn't they just create a regular M star (or bigger brown dwarf) instead of a neutron star? They consist of hydrogen mostly and their masses combined are too low to create a neutron star...
I'm not sure mate, I don't really know too much about that. But I don't think two stars can collide to form a larger star higher up in the main sequence. About becoming a neutron star, I really have no idea, but I guess someone more enlightened than me will soon reply.
@@lucasduque8289 brown dwarves aren't main sequence stars, they are something between gas giants and red dwarves (M class stars). Their mass is less than 8% of the Sun's, so there's no way they can form a neutron star.
@@DowntoEarthAstronomy well I hope they fix it if that is the case but a quick google shows people have been reporting this for years - some people seeing Earth perfectly as in your video and others having the same issue as me.
That black hole isnt very impressive. And probably rendered wrong, because stars remain "dots" when everything is streched... And that 24.4km exclusion zone... Its not even a dangerous thing. What a shame.
im disappointed in sol its just a tease fest! spoiler alert you can not land on the moon or mars i find that annoying! if theres 2 places i wanted to check out then its the moon or mars i aint happy that we cant and mars doesnt even look like mars its apparently terraformed and heavily populated with humans so we cant go there dumb! id much prefer a traditional red mars planet that i can drive my SRV on i think everyone would feel the same on that subject.
Correction!
The Hutton Mug is not something you buy it is earned. The once that are up for sale is counterfeit. Sorry for the mistake
I bought the mugs and it is normally on sale
I found that the biggest danger on the trip to Hutton was sleep. I got tricked into accepting a mission that turned out to be a trip to Hutton around what was my midnight. At some point I fell asleep, when I woke up my ship was damaged and inside the exclusion zone of the nearby planet. Don't drink and fly Commanders!
Auto pilot is a must for a Hutton trip at night
the chances are nuts
This totally happened to me on my first trip to Hutton.
This happened to me on my trip to colonia. Did a good majority of it in vr too. Ever wake up and find yourself dropping in on a black hole? 🤣
@CMDR BakedHoon ha, every day I woke up next to me ex.
BD-12 1172 (Spirograph Nebula) is also a must-see. It's only a short distance further than the California Nebula, but it's a supernova remnant - a very tiny, super concentrated nebula that only spans this single system. When you go there, you'll find a giant blue star, and the space in the background is no longer black, but a very nice shade of green instead. You can see other nebulas from there, like Barnard's Loop, which looks very interesting against the green backdrop. There is a pink-ish landable planet that look very interesting with the blue/green lighting going on.

You could add some other rare sights such as doubled earth-likes, close binary moons (just found one pair with 3.6M between them), closely paired gas giants, Helium giants, Earth-like as a Moon, water planet on a Brown dwarf, etc. But the list would be quite long and if you'd show them what would be the point of going there. Thanks to tourist beacons many of these are already marked.
I still miss this content :(
I've found your videos very useful, so added you to my Patreon list. :)
I'm not alone by any mean's, and will admit that I fell for the free Conda; HOOK, LINE and SINKER! Not only did I go there the first time, in attempt to get my CONDA, I did it in a large ship. Spent an hour looking for a place to land. The various individual's on the then PS4 forum, supposedly friend's. Informed my that there's no large pad, and I need to use a medium. Thus with that data, I flew back to GoldStein, switched to my Python, and did it again. Landed and spent another hour, looking through the dam menu's. And only found the mug. Realizing I was duped, didn't get mad, it's a right of passage for noob's.
i'm pretty sure there's an asteroid base in the Pleiades somewhere. there was a trade CG involving it at one point.
Don't have to even go that far, there is one in Delkar. I think it's name is Warnius.
Don't forget the "New Growth" Asteroid Base in Pencil Sector EL-Y d5, near Guardian Space.
Whoever made all the planets had to make them in area 51 or well before I was born lmao
so cool iv been to the asteroid station! wish i knew about the blue star tho! lol
Hi Dave, I see you are advertising the Hutton mug for sale, the real hutton mug can only be earned and cant be bought, just thought you should know this. I have also sent info to the leader, so he can confirm this you. The real mug is silver not white and as I said is only available as a reward from Hutton Group. Chris
if you fly to HO with assist off, it takes 42 minutes, Supercruise assist flies at 1/2 throttle.
Fairly certain Supercruise Assist caps out at 75% throttle, not 50%.
@@Buc_Nasty only when you get to your ships max speed which takes a LONG time to happen, but until you get to around 80% throttle is at 50% on SCA
@@Paradigmfusion That... Isn't true. You can only use SCA in supercruise. Individual ships do not have different top speeds in SC. You top out at 2,001c regardless of the ship. The assist is a flat 75% rate and is fairly well documented. Look into it or do the math on your end. It's absolutely a flat 75%.
@@Buc_Nasty well regardless it only takes 43 minutes to get there going full throttle unassisted. I've done that run more than a few times. (Great run to get caught up on the lore)
@@Paradigmfusion yep! I picked up a courier mission and didn't realize it was for Hutton. Said to hell with it and did it anyways!
I really like the Phiince system. It’s just one Earth-Like planet, and one station
I know of an asteroid base less than 200ly from Sol.
Been there many times.
There is one in the noob starter area . That is the first one you will see
Yeah. That's not the one.
The one I am referring to was a community goal objective.
And, sits on the inner edge of rings on a ringed planet.
@@bangalorewolf5952 what system ?
HR 7047 The Den
Off topic tangent but not sure how else to get it to you -- topic for a future vid? What can ED teach me about.... astronomy, astrophysics, you know space science stuff? I get that lots of science went into ED, behind the scenes and on stage but what can the game teach me about those things?
you can witness orbits in real time. You can see how relative distances work.
It's a great way to visualize gravity.
Supercruising about is great for the aspiring astronomer.
who else is going to do an everest style hike to tall mountains peak on foot in odyssey? im CMDR protheus talos, and on march 29, i'll be going to do the first expedition
do i have to pay odyssey expansión if i have horizons version?
@@luiseduardoespinosarestrep4236 yes, this is a paid expansion and will cost around 60 usd
Did you do it
@@nochill3741 I did indeed but I I got a little assistance from surfing a Srv surfing a conda
@@Kaldortangerine hope you have GoPro footage of that!
Can you do a video on the fast ship build?
But I wanted to stay in colonia what am i supposed to do now?
Wait the radioactive greenie i went too was by colonia, in the galatic center! I didnt know there was Multiple!?????
IM GETTING IN MY SHIP RIGHT TF NOW
Betelgeuse! Landing on Betelgeuse 2 is incredible!
I'm planning to visit Betelgeuse at some point. I've seen Orion ever since shown the stars as a kid . Can you visit Rigel too?
@@TaSwavo Yes, Rigel is just North of the Witch Head nebula. You can't visit the North Star, Polaris though. It's permit locked.
Is a satellite with a short orbital period like Mitterand Hollow actually possible in real space? Or would that cause orbit decay to accelerate, so that such an object wouldn't be orbiting for very long?
It would be ripped apart.
You don't increase your jump range by 400%, you increase it by 300% for a total of 400% range. Increasing something by 100% is doubling it, 200% is triple and 300% is quadrupling.
or you can use the phrase "increasing it TO 400%" as an alternative to "BY 300%"
This is so weird I JUST went to the Toxic Green Gas Giant for a tourist mission. Crazy!
Seoul? Arr yoo shoore?
This list is missing Skardee 1.
A fairly small planet orbiting within fuel scoop distance of the parent star. Bring heat sinks....
We don't tell new players about this... They die. But it is hilarious to visit. I prefer Skardee 2... The ground isn't quite lava.
i need to know what in rosette sector pd-s b4-4 says its populated on my galaxy map but I cant get there.
Gonna try tall mountain on odyssey now.
Jackson's Lighthouse isn't the closest neutron star to Sol... 18 Camelopardalis C is (although my favourite was Lalande 25224's companion... it's a PSR series star and is the actual jump in star and very well placed for going up to Quince or heading out hubward). Yeah, 18 "Giraffe" C is 90k out from the star which is not convenient... but that's a lot closer than Maia's black hole companion to jump in. Which isn't even close to being the closest black hole to Sol in the game... there are plenty closer. For starters, right next door in HR 1185 (~20 lys closer to Sol, and half the distance away from jump in). There's a bunch out by New Yembo that are closer. And there's that notorious ship-killing system, HIP 63835 (several changes over the years have made it much, much safer)... 3 black holes in close orbit of an O star. HIP 34707 is under 200ly and right on the edge of the bubble near Jackson's Lighthouse.
Taking notes...
I just travelled over to Nervi 3 A, and Odyssey has totally ruined that planet. All these tall mountain ranges are gone. Sad :(
HIP 11902 system with 12 stars (well 11 are brown dwarfs)
I’m currently at the bottom of galactic plane and just found a system with 3 water worlds and 1 earth like world. How rare would you say that is? Been playing for a while and first time finding so much in one system
May I ask what system you’re in?
Joshua Cole I sadly didn’t bookmark it, just realized. I’ll search through my visited systems because I know the general area and I’ll let ya know when I figure it out!
I know it's just a game but could two brown dwarfs really have enough mass to form a neutron star?
It depends upon the speed they hit at of course.
@@TaSwavo what has speed got to do with it?
as far as I'm aware neutron stars are the remains of supernovas, brown dwarfs don't have enough mass to sustain fusion let alone go supernova. The speed they collide as isn't going to increase there mass
gameglass doesn't work for me sadly :C
For the Mug!
if two brown dwarves collide, wouldn't they just create a regular M star (or bigger brown dwarf) instead of a neutron star? They consist of hydrogen mostly and their masses combined are too low to create a neutron star...
I'm not sure mate, I don't really know too much about that. But I don't think two stars can collide to form a larger star higher up in the main sequence.
About becoming a neutron star, I really have no idea, but I guess someone more enlightened than me will soon reply.
@@lucasduque8289 brown dwarves aren't main sequence stars, they are something between gas giants and red dwarves (M class stars). Their mass is less than 8% of the Sun's, so there's no way they can form a neutron star.
@@kempo79 Well, yeah, I know they aren't mains sequence. I realized what I said after commenting, but I forgot to change.
Are these planets horizons or oddessy?
Horizons. Odyssey was not out when this video was posted.
What's the point going to Sol can't even land on those planets.
Lol wtf I didn't know that. The Mars station has just about every ship and module I think though.
How can two brown dwarfs make a neutron star it's not possible but I like it

I visited Earth and it looked nothing like that - it was terrible, you couldn't even make out the continents - what happened?
Odyssey happend.
@@DowntoEarthAstronomy well I hope they fix it if that is the case but a quick google shows people have been reporting this for years - some people seeing Earth perfectly as in your video and others having the same issue as me.
Rip this video once Odyssey drops
What happens then?
@@ivt8 Planetary surface rework
Don't make people fly all the way out there for a ship that doesn't exist lol, that's mean.
doesnt it ? Are you sure ?
That black hole isnt very impressive. And probably rendered wrong, because stars remain "dots" when everything is streched... And that 24.4km exclusion zone... Its not even a dangerous thing. What a shame.
The Bubble is just so last week. All the cool kids are in Colonia these days.
he said viper ... he meant courier ... ;)
No, he meant Viper. Yes he was in a Courier, but the Viper is the fastest ship in the game post engineering.
OMG, A free Anaconda! I'm so excited about that. ❤
Black holes are still the most disappointing thing in the game. Such an anticlimax.
I CAME ACROSS JACKSONS STARS 2 DAYS AGO, MY SONS NAME IS JAXSON
You should correct that the Anaconda isn't free it's just 75% cheaper.. Still a massive discount but not exactly "free"
There is no free conda its all a meme on new players just go platinum mining..
Have you even tried?!
im disappointed in sol its just a tease fest! spoiler alert you can not land on the moon or mars i find that annoying! if theres 2 places i wanted to check out then its the moon or mars i aint happy that we cant and mars doesnt even look like mars its apparently terraformed and heavily populated with humans so we cant go there dumb! id much prefer a traditional red mars planet that i can drive my SRV on i think everyone would feel the same on that subject.
My first "first" 👍🏻
free anaconda at hutton orbital confirmed
