    I know we don't get orbits, but maybe we could get a "temporary snapshot" of a system from this game for our solar systems.

    You mean that you sometimes want two or even three stars in a star system? That would be really fun. Especially when you accidentally FTL into them ;)

    That would be really cool especially with orbits, once you add those you could even add black holes and white dwarfs

    I think it would be neat to add a mechanic to multi-star systems, that if you have arrived inside one of the stars via FTL, that it teleports you safely to a random nearby non-star sector, with a high velocity away from the star in the same direction as the random non-star sector from the original arrival sector, to simulate a gravity slingshot. This might be a good alternative to FTL arrival in a regular single-star sector as well.

    (But please, no time-travel to 1980's San Francisco.)
