34.3  VESPER-M4  - A - Space installations near Slough Unauthorised installation. See this gallery for images and more information.
Base Jumping 9C (Oluwefami Depot) at 22.9395, -4.2683 Exit from Oluwefami Depot A great base jumping location with 0.11g gravity and a landing which is good (planetary base) For more info see this video Source(s):Alec Turner
34.6  Andhrimi  - H - Asteroid bases Big Pappas Base.

38.3  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).
41.6  Aeternitas  - H - Amazing Stations Houtman City is a large station only 14 Ls from the star it is orbiting. Mentioned by Obsidian Ant in this video

51.6  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
53.2  Mundjiga  - H - Capital Ship When not on duty, the empire capital ship INV Replicator is stationed nearby to Sagan Port.
55.8  MU Cassiopeia  Megaships C1 Artemis generation ship. See this image.

65.3  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.
66.0  Mandhrithar  - H - Space installations A1 Security installation. See this image.

70.2  Sun Takush  - L - Canyon Runner Has a deep ice canyon. See this reddit link for more details.
70.7  LAWD 26  - L - Explorers A Wolf Rayet star within the bubble. I remember spending ages looking for Stone's treasure here, thanks Frontier, I should hand myself in at Hutton orbital for "mug" recycling.
70.8  Masszony  - M - Materials Hunters Planet 1AA Has a very high 2.9% Arsenic content. This is one of the highest levels in the bubble. For other good Arsenic sources try this EDDB link here
73.3  Grabrigpa  - H - Space installations 2 Agricultural installation. See this image.

74.4  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.
75.3  El Tio  - M - Materials Hunters Planetary object 3ea has 2.9% Arsenic. For other good Arsenic sources try this EDDB link here
75.6  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.
76.7  Khruvandji  - H - Capital ship dock Consolmagno Enterprise Imperial Capital ship dock. Image. Source(s):CMDR Mr. Boombastic
76.7  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

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.

99.7  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.
99.8  Gridge  - M - Installation 1 Military installation. See this Image. Source(s):Keybuk

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.
