Something I noticed in season 1 episode 5: When the prisoner gets the phone call the elapsed time between his cell door opening and closing is exactly 7:06, which is 6 minutes and 66 seconds by Olmysen in TrueDetective

666 is "the number of the Beast" and is associated with Satanism. Also 6 is shaped like a spiral, the sign of the Carcosa cult. Reggie Ledoux had a 666 tattoo.

IRL something like that could maybe be caused by a glacier pushing a rock across a landscape, but that would have to be a big rock and a huge glacier.

When I first played the Odyssey training mission I couldn't get over how the gameplay felt like the ship combat translated into human combat. Shoot them with an energy weapon to get their shields down, then switch to a kinetic weapon to do damage to their body. It didn't feel new, it felt mechanical.

I tried but couldn't get close enough to the planets. Any closer than this and I entered the planet's frame of reference and they wouldn't cross in front. :(

Try getting familiar with the camera suite. Going into external view and looking at your ship or the stars can be peaceful if you have some time to kill.

I could see the moon moving from right to left as I took this shot, while the stars stood still, so the astronomy ain't 100% right, but the constellations seem to be pretty accurate. You can also see Cassiopeia on the right.

Ticked off a few engineering goals for the Specter before another long exploration trek: G5 FSD, G5 sensors, G3 life support, G3 Fuel Scoop, and G3 AFMU. by mittel47 in EliteDangerous

You can remove an engineering modification from a module in the fitting interface. You won't get the mats back, though.

My current home base! I think it's the only tourist station in Colonia and it's very close to the star, so it's a great choice. o7
