Distance (Ly)	System (Links to Inara)	Civilization Allegiance - Security - Economy	Interested Parties	Region	Notes
16.3	Groombridge 34	- M -	Space installations	4A	Scientific installation. See this image.
16.7	Sol	- H -	Humans Thargoids		Permit required (especially for Thargoids). Check out Voyager, a kind of E.D. easter egg. Check out the Federation Battlecruiser near Earth (unless the Thargoids have already got to it) but don’t get too close, there is also one near Mars but apparently it is the president's personal ship and if you get too close they open fire. I seem to remember that this system has inter-system trade potential, buying metals at the extraction stations and selling them at the service ones. I think Jupiter has some RESs for bounty hunting within a ring that is unusually sparse of ‘roids. I went here to get selfies in front of all the famous planets and moons.
			Base Jumping	Ariel	Canyon ridge jumping (Aashenfox) A great base jumping location with 0.03-0.04g gravity. For more info see video Source(s):Alec Turner
17.1	Epsilon Indi	- H -	Canyon Runners		Do some canyon running here. Mitterand hollow as shown here by 777Driver. Mitterand is a small moon orbiting the planet New Africa. Mitterand Hollow is also an amazing planet for the speed in which it orbits its mother planet, around 90 seconds. Land on it and watch the mother planet go flying past every 90 seconds or so.
17.4	Alpha Centauri	- M -	Rare traders Muggins		Lose a few hours of your real life trekking to Hutton orbital (about 1 and a half hours) to pick up some mugs. And whilst you’re there you can drop one off, you-yourself, what else could you be if you did this stupendous run? Still it has gotta be done for some fun.
			Space installations	B1	Civilian Installation. See this image.
20.9	WISE 0855-0714	- L -	Space installations	5A	Agricultural Installation. See this image.

35.7	Luyten 674-15	- M -	Wreckage Materials Hunters	Bells World, at lat./longt. -10.9630, 170.1096	Wreckage of something, perhaps an Annaconda?. Fill up on Tellurium, Ruthenium, Antimony and Tungsten here. There are 3 cargo racks close to the wreckage, destroy them and they will release these rare materials. Log out and log in and start all over again until you have had your fill. Head for -10.9630, 170.1096. Check out the link here. Scan the wreckage before you leave and you will get a marker on the map for the next time you need to return. Supposedly, there are also Thargoid sensors here.

69.4	R Coronae Austrini		Explorers		A crazy disco light like star as shown here. Looks like changes in Elite Dangerous have been made as the behaviour of this star seems more muted now although it is still super hot like a White Dwarf or Neutron star (although it is listed as a type B).
70.7	Zeus	- L -	Megaships	Planet 1	The Midas, a dockable megaship, orbits planet 1 in the system Zeus about 9 Ls from the entry star.

90.3	Chujohimba	- H -	Canyon Runners		Do some canyon running here. Chujohimba B2 as mentioned here. Bit of a trek to get there though apparently. Also one of the cheapest places in the bubble to buy Imperial Slaves see Eddb.
92.7	Aku	- L -	Hi-g-Landers		High g planetary landing challenge. Planet 1 has a gravitational pull of 3.5g, thats 3.5 times that of earth. Try to land without splatting your spaceship. There is some kind of ground facility here (no docking facilities) called Sturgeon Works.
93.3	Zoqui Xuang	- H -	Capital ship dock	Hoften Enterprise Station	Capital ship dock. Image Source(s):jumpingclear
94.7	Sanna	- M -	Wreckage	Caher at 55.35, -74.85	A wrecked Anaconda. Lying around the wreckage was a Thargoid Sensor, and a low yield cargo cannister that ejected rare materials when shot. There were also some invaluable salvage lying around when I visited. See this Sanna Anaconda Wreck Gallery. There is also a data point which when scanned and sold gave a tidy 175000 CR
95.7	Vucub Huan	- L -	Bounty Hunters		In the Codorain area, ALL the factions were present in this system at one point so you could cash-in all your Empire, Alliance and Federation bounties in one go. I believe this is no longer the case but there are definitely Federation, Empire and Alliance factions in the local area so it should be possible to sell all your bounties by visiting this system and another nearby. Here EDDB lists the factions that are currently present in the system.
97.0	Nervi	- L -	Base Jumping	3A at 22.5596, 113.1018	Mount Nervi - a leap of faith (Susanna) A great base jumping location with 0.09g gravity. For more info see this video Source(s):Alec Turner
98.7	Nevermore	- H -	Installation	A1	Giant Civilian installation (Long structure). Image. Source(s):777Driver, Alec Turner. There are some satellites and a navigation beacon here as well although they do not seem to yield anything when scanned. There are quite a few ships including some security ships hanging around the installation and pirates appear every now and again. Feels like a LO-RES so beginners could get some bounties here.
98.8	Mandhrithar	- H -	Space installations	A1	Security installation. See this image.

The system name links through to Inara where details of the stations in the system and their facilities can be obtained and also trade opportunities etc. (when it is available).

Most of the resources systems here I have found myself but many I have found on the elite dangerous forums and have given the links and credit where necessary. For Ship docks, Megaships, Installations and Asteroid bases I mostly used the information supplied by Alec Turner and AlistairHope.
