Earth-like World: Difference between revisions

Quite a few ELWs exist in the galaxy without any human intervention. [[Stellar Forge]] is able to generate ELWs given its physics simulations and a bit of algorithmic fudging:<ref>[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/earth-like-worlds-a-study-in-their-classification-and-statistical-analysis.574670/ https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/earth-like-worlds-a-study-in-their-classification-and-statistical-analysis.574670/]</ref> they mostly generate around main-sequence stars, but exceptions can occur and are prized discoveries among the community.<ref>[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/elw-bucket-list.532288/ ELW Bucket List]</ref> ELWs are especially valuable to [[Universal Cartographics]]. CMDRs can use some features of Stellar Forge, such as boxel (subsector) nomenclature, to find stars with similar features and hopefully similar planets.<ref>[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/marxs-guide-to-boxels-subsectors.618286/ Marx's guide to boxels / subsectors]</ref> There are also ELWs manually placed into the game similar to Earth, but left uninhabited. [[Trappist-1]] has one such ELW.
