Title: Largest Planets Ever Discovered
Post by: Rostin on August 11, 2014, 02:58:32 AM
I just located a remarkably large terra planet in my travels, so I am curious.

How big are the biggest planets you all have found?  :19:

(Edit: Please brag about gas giants and solid planets alike. I am willing to bet that no one has found a terra planet bigger than this one (that I have found) yet...)

I found a solid planet with a little over 100 slots on it. But now I know that is not the biggest...

Raphael has found one (as I'm sure others have...) that has I think 122 slots on it (?) which is CRAZY. Bigger than any ship or station; you could construct a powerful base there as long as the system didn't go nova :)

support the 'novae' pledge and purchase modules that are designed to stabilize a system (like I am)...

But I wonder if those are a permanent fix or if they just delay the inevitable..  :21:

My understanding is that we can only delay it. Would've been better if we could stabilize it. Would also make sense story-wise (not that many care, LOL) since the stars within the first ring will be immune from going kaboom. The Sol Corp must've been able to stabilize them somehow. :)

You are correct.  Somehow they have prevented it.  That said part of me would love to see Sol go kaboom lol
