'''First footfall''' is a feature that was added with [[Elite Dangerous: Odyssey|ED: Odyssey]]. [[Universal Cartographics]] gives credit to the first person who sets foot on a planetary body.
 
To be credited with First Footfall on the [[System Map|system map]] requires landing and disembarking from your [[Ships|ship]] and/or [[:Category:Surface Recon Vehicles|SRV]] on the surface of a planet or moon in an uninhabited system. This credit is automatically recorded after disembarking by [[Universal Cartographics]]. Most planetary bodies in or near the [[Core Systems]] and [[Colonia]] have already been claimed during the over 1300 years of interstellar exploration. Thus to find unclaimed planets or moons you must travel further into deep space.
 
Getting First Footfall does not grant any credits directly, however, a commander with First Footfall on a [[Planets|planet]] is almost guaranteed that they will receive the First Scanned 500% Bonus (5x the base value)  for any biological species they sampled on this planet when handing in the data to [[Vista Genomics]], as no one else can have scanned the species before them and it is incredibly unlikely that anyone else would be able to find, scan and hand-in the data before them.
 
After you make First Footfall, you will be able to see the Commander's name on the planet details in the System Map view. First Footfall is granted even if you don't scan any biological entities on the planet surface. If you disembark an [[Ship-Launched Vessels|SLV]] like the [[Nomad]], you will get First Footfall even if you don't step out of the SLV.

In the same way that Buzz Aldrin made way for Neil Armstrong to be the first man on the moon, the control to disembark is for an individual commander and there will always be someone first down the ladder, this accolade will not be shared between commanders.
