if you guys would be so kind as to bump this thread (assuming you read it, and agree with the idea), I would deeply appreciate it :smile:

For those who may not be able to read it on Spectrum:

Hello all! I am curious about stellar things in Star Citizen  

I was looking at information on the known star types in SC at present. I see the standard types on the Hertzsprung - Russell Diagram , but curious about magnetars and other exotic star types (as defined https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exotic_star ). I have an Endeavor specifically to go see, explore, and research these stellar bodies  

Also, I am curious if CIG is connecting with any universities or scientific bodies, to connect us (the players doing research) with real world information to help scientists analyze data. I realize that may not be possible or realistic, but as someone who has his desktop running for SETI, I'd be remiss to not ask

no :p

For details of astronomical phenomena, see the Loremakers Guide series. They always put nuggets of info in about interesting stellar phenomena and such. Hence systems like Null, are centered on a classical Cepheid Variable star.

They are planning to fill the verse with cool stuff to study!

I'm a big fan of their lore series, but hoping they'll look at my idea :D

It's been a rough year, but I often lurk :)

I think they did consort with Scientists when making the Star System making tools, so fingers crossed that also included what stars will be there...

I think Tyrol would be a bit of a dud if they didn't have some solid science backing up the knife-edge star in that system - It'll go Nova one day and when that happens i'm running like hell... but what a game-event it will be!

Sure thing that's a no brainer, +1 bump : - )

CHEERS!

I think @August meant read in general.

Have you named your endeavor yet? What modules do you plan to use? The telescope I am guessing?

Maybe if the heading is changed to 'BEER FOR UPVOTES' it would be more effective?
