DESCRIPTION | ||
→ | ||
On May 23, 3301, CMDR Kelly Eldridge, who had been exploring deep in the black, took the following photo of what she described as "the strangest gas giant I've seen so far." She would continue to finish her expedition and ultimately reset her account. Years later, when the significance of her rare discovery came to light, the system that this gas giant was located in was forgotten to time. She never made note of the name of this system, and we only had this single photo, her logs, and her memory to go off of. I am proud to say that we have finally found this gas giant on August 16, 3308. Lost to time for over 7 years, Kelly's GGG is located in Shaulai DL-P d5-274, within the Perseus Arm. For a detailed account of the discovery, please see the discovery forum thread. | → | On May 23, 3301, CMDR Kelly Eldridge, who had been exploring deep in the black, took the following photo of what she described as "the strangest gas giant I've seen so far." She would continue to finish her expedition, however, she vanished soon after she returned to inhabited space. Unfortunately, at the time she didn't realise the significance of her discovery, and she didn't note down which system she found it in. With CMDR Kelly Eldridge's disappearance, the only clues that remained were the single picture she took, and a short diary she kept of her expedition. People would soon go on to discover more of the rare and elusive green gas giants, but the location of where the first one was discovered was lost. Seven years later, a dedicated group of explorers launched the "At the Eldritch Gate" expedition. They scoured the galaxy looking for the exact places where CMDR Kelly Eldridge might have travelled, based on the entries in her diary, and used the positions of stars and dust clouds on her photo to finally rediscover the lost green gas giant. For more details on how exactly the discovery was made, please see CMDR Orange!'s detailed account. |
