🌕 Nahla Tracker updated to v0.23.

Here on Nahla, the days and nights are super regular, but just LONGER.

Since we live by GMT but the moon has its own Nahla Local Time, the tracker now has a drift chart to compare and predict offset.

🌕 Nahla News Network 🌌

1 - Thanks to @fool.canonn.tech we now have the exact rotation of Nahla - 25 hrs 26 mins. EDSM was an hour out! We will recalibrate!

2 - Yesterday, Hope system received a very rare visit from a Sidewinder. Come on, which one of you was it? 💀

@nvgg.online ok done ⭐

The animation is just derived from my observations [complete cycle attached]. The galactic band is the main clock but there is still a long way to go to working out WHAT is going on here.

I made a doc about it -

Now I know why nobody has made a planetary tracker before - it's damn hard :)

BUT I now finally understand the way that the galactic band and Hope [main star] move along Nahla's horizon.

Animation here:

It's the 'scoop and flip' method!

Nahla Tracker v0.51 (Sumerian)

In tracking Nahla's day/night cycle, I hit a major flaw - EDSM data is unreliable and should not be used. The only reliable data is from observation.

e.g. EDSM says Nahla temp is 333 K. Where? Never seen that. Even on the equator. Max is 275 K. 1/2

Nahla Tracker v0.4 (Kepler/Multi-Anchor)

- support for multiple observations
- obs now can be weighted
- Kepler model introduced, NT now understands WHY the star system works as it does

Pros: greater long-term accuracy, less drift 🪐
Cons: much longer till public release [sorry] 🫶

Nahla Tracker - which tracks the day/night cycle of my home moon - has been getting some interest on other forums and requests for it to be universally applicable! 🌒

In theory this should be possible! Will gear up for a little more testing and a public release I suppose ⚙️

Time for a break from #elitedangerous... Or during??

Some Westmalle Trappist beer. Wish you were here @nvgg.online! 🍻

Tracker just updated itself - much more accurate!
November 12, 2025 at 8:25 PM
Nahla Tracker is at v0.2! And working as intended, current situation/tracker report posted 📋

v0.2:

- added Nahla Local Time [26hr clock]
- added Coordinated Time [24hr scaled clock]
- improved galaxy map
- improved gallery scroll
- added notes

Things I didn't think of before on a 1-monitor Linux setup - running a terminal overlay onto my cockpit screen 👾

I can now make journal entries, read text docs, control the computer [well, within reason], and use Google Gemini from the terminal without switching out of Elite 🖥️

Time for a mini excursion - a mere nine jumps away from Nahla to another system found by @nvgg.online - and what a view!

Totally worth it. Will be hanging out here for a few days 🪐

- It is very flat and level in comparison to the rest of Nahla which is uneven and mountainous ⛰️
- it has multiple gas vents/molten magma vents 🌋
- it has two days and nights - one from its star Hope and the other from the galactic band 🌌
- it is mine/Miley's base from which to conduct research! 📝

Some facts about Pâte Sablée crater here on Nahla!

- This massive crater is named after a French shortcrust pastry type 👩‍🍳
- Nahla is 247km in diameter. This was calculated using coords from either side, the moon's radius, and the Haversine formula

It's Halloween so Miley gets a new paint job and a trip to the Red Mountains on the other side of Pâte Sablée crater. Lots of iron around, it's Fe-ntastic [sorry] here.

We've been on Nahla for over four months now. We had trips here and there, but this is still the mainstay!

3.5G landable, let's gooooo and do this will 0% hull loss!! Awesome system with 12 stars [brown dwarfs are still stars, right?]

Watch this space. @nvgg.online can have all my stuff if this goes wrong 📦
