https://discord.gg/sidewindersyndicate “Expedition Trailer” Join the Sidewinder Syndicate again to discover the most exotic Ringed Bodies in the Galaxy, found but lost to time!

From the biggest Planet to the smallest Moon, towards the Legend! We will re-discover these mighty ringed anomalies on the path to eventually have a great party at “The Legend”, the most beautiful ring sight in the galaxy! This trip is very welcoming for veterans and new players alike. We will provide what other expeditions can't, from the most curated, statistically impossible to the unknown ring configurations we could find along the way. If you are a ringed planet fan, this is your Expedition! For Earth-like Word enjoyers, this will also be a great opportunity to show up.

We will also support Horizons and console commanders (TLDR; we have some systems that we need to see how they looked in Horizons for research purposes!).

We will travel to The Legend, an exceptional system discovered by CMDR Dr. Digital . What it's the Legend you ask? Well, join us and find out!
