[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 8855577, member: 1125"] [B]Turbulence[/B] I like to use Gravity wells and magnetospheres as a source of turbulence (rough seas) and wild weather in space. A Ship approaching the Magnetosphere of a Jupiter sized planet will be beset with lightning and rough seas they need to manouvere out of or get sucked in. Solar flares can also be used as weather disturbances [B]ORCs[/B] (Odd Radio Circle) are huge circular objects (50 thousand times the diameter of the Milky Way) that are invisible to the naked eye but glow bright at Radiowavelengths. A ‘[B]Polyphoenix[/B],’ in 2021 astronomers discovered an enormous entity, (more than one million light years across) made of aging plasma that has taken on the shape of a jellyfish that was emmiting radiowaves of immense complexity and mystery. The jellyfish phenomena is beleived to be 2 billion years old and was dubbed a pheonix because it is beleived that it is the remnant of an ancient black hole that went dormant (died) but which has been revived by a more recent release of electrons from an exploding galaxy - [I]it has risen from the dead in fiery majesty![/I] [B]Oumuamua[/B] is an asteroid-like object that appears to have come from outside the solar system and which exhibits non-gravitational acceleration (ie it sped up under its own compulsion), probably by outgassing as solid material melted due to the suns warmth, however no such gas was observed. I created a race of space Coral ‘[I]Cnidarians[/I]’ that look like asteroids but are psychic explorers who feed off space plasma. The Cnidarians send exploration drones down to planets which hatch out as Flumphs. [/QUOTE]
