Some fun and absolutely amazing stats straight from today's ED newsletter .

[FONT="]It’s a big galaxy out there. Players have been out exploring Elite: Dangerous’ full-scale recreation of the Milky Way since launch, and together you’ve discovered 615,475 previously uncharted systems of the 400 billion in our galaxy.[/FONT][FONT="][/FONT]

[FONT="]On a simple average, that’s 17,585 systems per day, 732 per hour or 12 per minute. Good going, everyone.
But let’s put that in context, because with 400 billion star systems to explore the community have charted just 0.00015 percent of our galaxy. Let’s put it another way: if everyone keeps going at the current rate, it will take 150,895 years to map the entire Milky Way.
But with new players joining every day, we might just get the galaxy mapped before the turn of the hundred and seventieth century.
