Breathtaking NMS imagery
A short blog on planets and screenshots of those planets in my best possible quality from the game No Man's Sky. Often preceded by anecdotes on how I got to said planets along with their contents, weather and temperatures.

My first God-tier moon - Luna Supermundii Prima
As you all know, I've visited my first God-tier planet a while ago - what I consider to be a God-tier is a planet that has water, grass, interesting creatures, plants, trees and an overall interesting (non-brown) atmosphere. I've found my first moon like that - a blue, icy moon full of Sentinel activity, Gravitino Balls, weird creatures, grass and flora. The moon is full of earth arches and strange sculptures - Cubes with a cuboid air shape - essentially like a cubic ring. I didn't take pictures of them as they're reddish and brown, however despite the extremely cold weather and the Sentinel activity, I managed to snag a few picture of the moon in question. I guess travelling through 4 no-life blue star systems was worth it.

The strawberry milk sky of the azure Venus Caerulea Prima
And so, I took loads of pictures - blue is my favourite colour.

The floral desert of Vulcan Brunus Secundus
After the Venus planet, the next one I immediately stumbled upon was a desert planet. I was hoping for a real, you know, full sand and rocks planet, maybe even I could witness the huge snakes, however, none of that seemed to happen. The creatures we're weird alright, and there were floating islands, but the planet had a fair amount of flora, kind of defeating the weather status which was "Scorching Sands". However, this made it eligible for screenshots.
The planet has low sentinel activity and the plant Gravitino Balls, however, the Sentinels attack you if you take them, as usual. The temperature is 120°C during storms, yet - 98°C during nightly storms. What is amazing is how clustered the structures are - I could find 3 or 4 just by rising up 200 ks or so. The creatures are plenty, hell, I even found all of 'em without any intention first in 20 minutes or so. Before leaving, of course, I took some pictures.

The peaceful flora of Venus Virida Tertia
This planet I came upon after porting from the Orcus Laetus Primus system, but I left it for today. This is the first planet that has the title of Venus (Earthlike/Beautiful) which has actually normal temperatures - 21°C. However, the planet itself is pretty empty, as in - there isn't an abundance of life - there are 12 species, but they are rarely seen. Nevertheless, there are also almost no sentinels, but again - there is plenty of flora, and the planet has seas and lakes.
If there's one thing this planet has on the surface - it's definitely Titanium crystals. All crystals actually. However, the planet isn't barren, it's pretty green, has some sort of rocky structures, AND manages to have a lot of crystals. While I won't be on this planet for long, since the Laetus planet had all the resources I needed to fill my Hyperdrive up, I've taken the 3 pictures you will hopefully enjoy.

The variation of Orcus Laetus Primus
Furthermore, the temperature when I descended was -60°C, but then the day came, turning it up to +60°C. Then the storm came: 112°C. This planet was not only colorful visually, but also in temperature. And then, finally, came the creatures. They were all over the place. The rarest kinds, too. Swimming cows, walking two legged sticks, mutants, dinosaurs, something resembling lizards/snakes... I was astonished. I knew it was a blue star system planet, however, I never knew the game could go as far as that. That was some pretty nice variation.
And so, I took a picture of the planet that could make haters shut up.

The orange dawn of Luna Minervae Secunda
Luckily, my shields are fully upgraded, and so is my multi-tool, so I managed to snatch a few photos from all the triggered sentinels.

The peculiar Vortex planet - Asclepius Albus Primus
With a temperature of around -25°C at night and around 5°C during the day, the planet's climate wasn't really anything special. There is no strong radiation, nor toxicity, not even in the water. The water life is uninteresting, aside from those swimming cows. Hell, I didn't even know that such creatures could be created! Nevertheless, the planet is full of Vortex Cubes on the surface - not that I need them. After all, I was a in a star system where all the celestial bodies had Vortex Cubes underground without triggering any sentinels. So, I leave these behind - after all, they're much prettier that way.
Maybe I can 100% this planet before I freeze to death. Who knows? This planet was weird enough to make me think, in any case.

Luna Veneris Secunda - the pleasant yellow moon
Entering a new blue Star System, I've immediately landed on the only planet. It was barren, literally nothing on it, and it was ugly, brown - I didn't want to stay on it any longer. Its first moon, Luna Terrae Prima was almost the same, except it featured a green atmosphere, along with having pretty interesting animals. After I've cleared all the fauna and got my achievement, I've proceeded onto the last body in that system, and that is our Luna Veneris Secunda.
I've realised that it's a yellow planet, and I was REALLY hoping it wasn't a toxic planet. If there's one thing I hate in this game, those are Toxic planets. Always green and yellow, their color makes me puke. But this planet wasn't like that. It had no hazards, a temperature of around 10°C during the day. The creatures were extremely interesting, up to a point that I named one of them "Mistake of God #2". It was just that interesting.
But the planet, boy oh boy. Those permanent cave particles, that Savannah feel... The only thing that was lacking was the forests - the trees, as you will be able to seem, are very weird, and deny the color palette along with not being numerous. All in all, this was a moon I was considering to make a God-tier moon, however, it fell short - if it had more trees, it would have attained that status. And so, I've uploaded more than 1 picture, so make sure you check 'em out by clicking on the link under the thumbnail picture. Keep in mind, only the pictures behind that link are FHD.
