I thought I'd give you an idea of the scale of the FreeSpace universe.

Here is my small attempt with Celestia. I listed all the distances I could find in light years.

Several stars cannot be identified in the current databases. If an unidentified star is a node, I also cannot tell the distance between it and another known star (Since Vasuda is unknown, I can't tell the distance between it and Deneb, for instance).


So here are the mystery stars:

Vasuda
Laramis (maybe it's misspelled)
Tau Sigma (probably not a full star name)
Delphi
Ribos (It looks like a fictional star from the Dr. Who universe)
Cygnux X1*


* Here, there is a special case as it does not exist in the Celestia database. Cygnux X1 is a known binary system involving a blue giant and a black hole that is about 8000 ly away from Sol. Well, I could use data to triangulate its distance to Polaris, but that would be too much work.




Now, can someone post that on the wiki? I don't really know how to work with it. Thanks.


So what do you think? Any additional info you might have about the layout of the Freespace universe?

[Unknown Target]

Nice.

Didn't that 3D nodemap have real-world distances with it?

[Snail]

Vasuda is Beta Hydri.

[karajorma]

Vasuda is Beta Hydri.

That's fanon.


As are half the stars on that map for that matter.

[Snail]

Well Goober said so. Umph.

[karajorma]

He's not the boss of me.

[Bob-san]

Do you have a larger version of that? I'll find the map helpful though bigger is better. Save as a PNG next time, please!

Well Goober said so. Umph.

I said it was fanon, too.
