I don’t know yet exactly which other blob is which … … but from my last map I know they’re Abyssal DeadSpace and JSpace. Btw … there _is_ a system at (0,0,0).

e+16 is an exponent. It means 10 to the 16th power. 10^16, or 100,000,000,000,000,000 Hope this helps. ---

I’m still alive. Got Covid, fell off the face of the earth a while…sadly not to the stars. But whatever. I’m still “out of eve” but hey…my first book is almost ready to be published so f\*\*k it… Haven’t edited my 2nd book. ---

Ok, right off I have to say thank you for this thread. I haven’t read all of it, and don’t perfectly understand everything I have read so far, but what I’ve gotten at this point is utterly facinating. Something I have found endlessly interesting in Eve is the ability to see things at great distance from various points of view, I only found out recently that there is an actual north built into our grids, and since then have been getting a slightly better sense of where I am and how I got there. There are a few things that have bothered me about tracing in Eve, one is the feeling that gate jumps feel like their distance is dictated by network latency, I have a lot of this some times and occasionally think that by the time I get to the next gate I ought to be well outside of the galaxy, this eliminates using time as a measurement, but that’s not something I can fix. When I was very new I heard about someone managing to pinpoint where Tabitha’s star was and had, for the longest time, no clue how they did it, now, because of this thread, I think I understand it. I might even be able to do it my self but I’m not sure yet. Anyhow, thank you again, this is wonderful and I’m going to keep reading and learning. Cheers! ---
