** 32 other galaxies are visible from the Milky Way.

** Several sentient [[species]] in the [[galaxy]]. The most notable are [[Human]]s, [[Thargoids]] and [[Guardians]]. More species are yet to be discovered.

* [[Flight Model]] of Elite Dangerous has Newtonian physics with a fly-by-wire layer applied over the top to make the combat feel visceral and seat-of-the-pants, rather than Frontier's jousting at huge distances. Newtonian space combat (ships will continue to move unless intervened but without orbital mechanics)

* Freeform (manual yaw/pitch/roll) interplanetary flight allows to fly freely through star systems in realistic scale to get to a destination. Players can choose to travel wherever they want, including vista points to see [[Earth]] rise on the moon, the sun appearing behind [[Mars]], or they could choose to explore the vast expanse of space and discover new points of interest in star systems.
