TripTik146 Expedition Highlights

Introduction

See all 18 interstellar skybox nebulae across New Eden.

Since these nebulae span multiple regions and no single system is designated, please refer to each nebula’s description for the relevant regions. To explore them, go to Dotlan Maps and enter the desired region in the search bar. From there, you can choose any system within that region for navigation..

Locations

Across known space, there are 19 major phenomena visible in the skies of New Eden. One is the EVE Gate, and the remaining 18 are interstellar nebulae. This TripTik will guide you to each of these 18 nebulae so you can experience and appreciate their beauty firsthand.

The Cauldron

Regions: Aridia, Kor-Azor, Genesis, Khanid

Description: In the Cauldron, the remnants of several supernovas render the space unstable and treacherous. Filled with volatile gravity currents and large chunks of stellar debris, the whole area is much too dangerous for space travel. The Cauldron lies between the Amarr Empire and the Khanid Kingdom and acts as a convenient natural barrier between the two hostile factions.

Travel note: Located primarily in hisec/lowsec, with some viewpoints being nullsec.

Domain Nebula

Regions: Domain, Tash-Murkon, Derelik, Devoid, The Bleak Lands

Description: Primary nebula of Amarr space.

Travel note: Located primarily in hisec.

Malpais Nebula

Regions: Malpais, Perrigen Falls, Outer Passage, The Kalevala Expanse, Cobalt Edge

Travel note: Located deep in nullsec, specifically the very active drone regions.

Cloud Ring

Regions: Cloud Ring, Outer Ring, Placid, Pure Blind

Description: Named by noted Intaki astronomer Alnadil Jouber, Cloud Ring is notable for its central constellations, which are encompassed by a massive ring of dust and gas expelled from an ancient stellar catastrophe of colossal proportions. The first scientist to observe and detail this phenomenon from observatories in the Placid region, Jouber went on to theorize that analysis of the ring's extent, density, and rate of expansion could give insight as to what monumental event could have caused such a disturbance and when it might have occurred.

He further theorized that such an explosion might have had far-reaching gravitic effects that could destabilize wormholes, and might have been a contributing factor in the collapse of the EVE Gate. While later researchers have discounted many of his ideas, the validity of his theories has yet to be categorically disproven. It is noteworthy that the Sisters of EVE maintain several bases in Placid, from which scientific expeditions to study the Cloud Ring are coordinated.

Travel note: Located deep in nullsec.

Lonetrek Nebula

Regions: Lonetrek, Black Rise, The Forge, The Citadel

Description: Primary nebula of Caldari space.

Travel note: Located in hisec; however, The Forge is a highly active hisec ganking region.

Verge Vendor Nebula

Regions: Verge Vendor, Sinq Laison, Essence, Everyshore, Placid

Description: Primary nebula of Gallente space.

Travel note: Located in hisec.

Metropolis Nebula

Regions: Metropolis, Heimatar, Molten Heath, Derelik

Description: Primary nebula of Minmatar space.

Travel note: Located in hisec; however, most external viewpoints are in lowsec or nullsec.

Caroline's Star

Regions: Literally everywhere, although I found the best viewing spots to be Venal, The Kalevala Expanse, and Cobalt Edge

Description: Caroline's Star is a very unique nebula in four qualities: It can be seen anywhere in New Eden, It shifts based on what system you are in, instead of what region, Its explosion was seen from all of New Eden at once, It does not change perspective no matter from which angle it is viewed.

Additional reading: Mark726 Caroline's Star

Travel note: The viewing spots above are all located in nullsec.

Ginnungagap

Regions: Geminate, The Kalevala Expanse, Etherium Reach, Great Wildlands

Description: Ginnungagap is a huge black hole at the edge of Minmatar space. It is the largest black hole close to civilized space. The black hole has already rendered several solar systems close to it uninhabitable, but otherwise it is not considered to pose any great risk to inhabited space for the foreseeable future.

Travel note: Located in nullsec.

Jove Nebula

Regions: Venal, Tenal, Tribute, Vale of the Silent

Description: Primary nebula of Jove space.

Travel notes: Located in nullsec.

Big Citadel Nebula

Regions: The Citadel, The Forge, Black Rise

Description: A small nebula separated from the Lonetrek Nebula by a dust lane. It can be seen next to the Metropolis Nebula in The Citadel.

Travel note: Located in hisec.

Little Citadel Nebula

Regions: The Citadel, The Forge, Black Rise, Essence

Description: A small nebula separated from the Lonetrek Nebula by a dust lane. It can be seen "below" the player in The Citadel, or below the Lonetrek Nebula in Essence and Black Rise.

Travel note: Located in hisec.

Cord of the Elements

Location: D-B7YK, Syndicate

Description: Triptik #027 Cord of the Elements

Travel note: Located in nullsec.

Trace Cosmos

Location: Gererique, Solitude

Description: Triptik #037 Duvolle Gravitational Observatory and Trace Cosmos

Travel note: Located in hisec, but the only way to get to Solitude using gates is via lowsec and nullsec.

Tenerifis Nebula

Location: Tenerifis, Impass, Omist, Detorid

Travel note: Located in nullsec.

Scalding Pass Nebula

Location: Scalding Pass, Great Wildlands, Wicked Creek, Immensea

Travel note: Located in nullsec.

Pool of Radiance

Location: 6QBH-S, Stain

Description: Triptik #035 True Creations Pool of Radiance Research Lab

Travel note: Located in Stain, an extremely active nullsec region.

Vapor Sea

Location: Stain, Tash-Murkon, Querious, Impass, Period Basis, Paragon Soul, Immensea, Esoteria

Description: Vapor Sea, also known as Crib of Stars, is a melding pot of gaseous clouds where new stars are being born. Although new stars and solar systems are still millions of years away, the area is of great interest to scientists. The lack of gravity wells makes it impossible to create stargates anywhere near the area.

Travel note: Located in nullsec; however, it can be seen from certain southern lowsec regions.
