The black hole known as ‘Black in Green”, about 5,000 LY from the Galactic Center…

A tourist installation known as ‘Tranquility’s Stop’ orbits the black hole and offers some of the most breath-taking views in the Galaxy.

These high-energy phenomena are characterized by luminous clusters of energy comprised of a circular red core emitting a slow gaseous trail.

Currently traversing the large gap between the Outer Arm and the Scutum-Centaurus Arm, on a course to the outer edges of the Galaxy.

The fleet carrier 'Phoenix Rising' being joined by the newest squadron fleet carrier 'The Gilded Phoenix' in high orbit above a remote icy world in the Pegasus Sector...

Phoenix Flight Explorers Commune is overseeing wealth redistribution operations at Semeonis Vision star port, drawing the ire of the mega-corporation which currently controls this star system.

Commander CardioTherapy of Phoenix Flight Explorers has submitted the first personal logs of his research expedition, beginning at a Thargoid site on a moon of the second planet in HIP 14909...

The 'scavengers' actually seem to be nourishing the pods around the site, not eggs but more like a mechanism for growing parts to fix the site, which may actually be an ancient Thargoid mother ship, used in war against the Guardians.

Phoenix Flight Explorers Commune is currently at war against the Lords of Djapan, a harsh feudalist regime oppressing people in the Pegasus sector.

Fleet carriers 'Phoenix Rising' and 'Erebus' are overseeing war operations, determined to bring civil liberty to the system.

Phoenix Flight Explorers SRV shenanigan pictures taken by commanders Stef Lennon, Netterkakao, JoKer, and Cardio Therapy

Includes an ancient Guardian site, Dav's Hope, geysers in the Veil West Nebula, and a daring rescue from a distant canyon

The luxurious tour vessel "Magical Mystery Tour" flown by Commander Stef Lennon visiting some spectacular locales within civilized space:

1) Radioactive Green, a green gas giant only 300 LY from Sol

2) So-yeon Dock orbiting a terraformed world

3) The purple gas giant in Moanza, described by the locals as being the dwelling place of the Great Spirit that protects them

4) A pristine Earth-like world in a system of multiple life-supporting planets

5) A "hot Jupiter" orbiting extremely closely to a brown dwarf

6) A safari water world in Aapelinja, home to some of the Galaxy's most astounding megafauna

7) Water world orbiting the barycenter of a close binary pair of stars

8) Ringed ice planet in Dassareti, famous for recent reports of unusual readings

9) The soft glow of a brown dwarf

10) Canyon flight on the icy moon of a gas giant

Election season in the Pegasus sector has ended, and Phoenix Flight Explorers Commune has peacefully taken control of many local stations, including Haipeng Landing, Galilei Dock, and Borlaug Ring.

Citizens have rallied behind the cooperative's governance, with its core precept being the equal stature of all members of society. Nearby systems such as Valkunth and Jura Laima report sustained periods of civil liberty as a result of the commune's investment in the people and infrastructure.

The enticing Fly Trap Nebula lures in unsuspecting pilots, only to find a black hole waiting to swallow them.

This gorgeous supernova remnant lies near the center of the Formorian Frontier, approximately 55,000 LY from Earth.

The Seldowitch Nebula located in the Formorian Frontier region, around 54,000 LY from Earth.

The nebula glows in bright spectral lines of hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, the glow coming from the intense radiation of the neutron star at its heart, and also from several massive stars in the vicinity.

A spooky ghost ship arrived in the Chukchan system today, its hull compromised, its escape pods jettisoned, and with no sign of its crew or cargo.

Compromised flight logs point to a mission the ship was on almost 200 years ago, and some imprecise travel coordinates were deciphered, apparently pointing to the Coalsack Nebula.

Meeting with the fleet of the Perseus Reach Deep Space Expedition at the nebula known as the Winds of Enlil, at the far side of the Galaxy in the Newton's Vault region...

The Winds of Enlil are a bit of a conundrum; many classic characteristics associated with most nebulae seem to be missing...

First, it does not have a core element, such as a stellar corpse, from which the Winds may have originated...

Also, the compex does not have any young stars or protostars; most stars inside of the Winds are rather old M and K class stars which range from 1.5 to 6.8 billion years old...

This may indicate that the Winds of Enlil are moving through the area, being pulled in by the Milky Way's gravity; therefore this may be the formation of a dust cloud that will turn into a stellar nursery after a few million years.

A basecamp meeting of the Perseus Reach Expedition in the Outer Orion-Perseus Conflux at a nebula known as Bendurion's Present.

The explorers found an extremely high mountain on the icy moon of a gas giant, and one of the fearless members can be seen taking a drive off the edge.

Exploration photos submitted by Phoenix Flight Explorers member CMDR JoKer on his first expedition to the derelict megaship 'Zurara', which was stranded in deep space in the Formidine Rift.

CMDR JoKer also made stops at some of the abandoned Project Dynasty deep space outposts in the Rift, as well as the gorgeous Heart & Soul Nebulae.

The Lights of Alexandria, a system of two O-type stars and a Herbig Ae/Be protostar, located in the Aphelion regions about halfway between Masefield's Ocean and the Nyauthai Ripple.

These three stellar bodies total about 70 solar masses, and their combined luminosity makes the system visible from a few hundred lightyears away, making the Lights of Alexandria a prominent navigational beacon.

Continuing quickly across the Orion-Cygnus Arm, on a course for the Perseus Arm, one of the least explored sections of the Milky Way, and the primary target for the Perseus Reach deep space expedition...

Mapping some of the terraformable worlds along the way, including a rocky non-atmospheric planet with an unusually large crater
