NOTE: I'm just putting these out as ideas. I do not want to work Schema to death!
Rogue Planets:
Lifeless worlds far from any stars, possibly drifting in between galaxies. More minerals than your average dodecahedron.
Pulsars:
Stars that shoot out streams of ... stuff from their north and south poles. Possibly a hazard, possibly an opportunity to find interesting resources/ships.
Brown Dwarfs:
Failed stars, plain and simple. Might have planetary systems, might not.
Neutron Stars:
Tiny but massive stars that bend spacetime near their surfaces. Perhaps they could be used as wormholes for smaller ships?
Binary, Trinary, Quadruple Systems?
Why not? (Yes I'm sure there's a perfectly good reason why not.) Oh, and please have multiple colors IF these are implemented.
Nebulae:
These have been suggested many times before, but still a good suggestion. Perhaps only scanners will work in them?
Gas Giants WITH Moons:
Something that could really be great, after all, imagine a blue quadruple system with a gas giant and a few r50 planets (the moons) orbiting it. *My computer shudders with fear while imagining it*
Planets with Moons:
Just the moons idea again.
Rings!
Perhaps half of the gas giants could have rings of some sort? Certainly would look nice if done correctly.
Comets:
Imagine r50 or less ice planets on elliptical orbits ... sounds like a comet to me!
Algol Binaries:
Okay, look it up on Google Images, and understand the awesomeness involved with these stars. Literally one star eating the other one.
Variable Sized Stars:
Right now we have two sizes: Main Sequence and Giant. Imagine a universe where stars (non-neutron) were in the region between Main Sequence and Giant, and each one was a different size.
So that's about it, please leave responses telling me why these won't work if they won't, and thanks for reading all of this text.
