Can I reach a star?

[Nick]

I mean literally fly up close to a star system's sun. In my starting system I've flown more than 55 million ks directly at the sun but doesn't seem to be getting any bigger. I figure if it hasn't gotten any bigger after 150 million ks then that means it's just part of the backdrop.

I've heard that there's a wall that prevents you from getting close to the sun. Haven't tried it myself though.

one of the early streamers (before it came out for ps4) tried to travel to one and wasnt able to. So assuming nothings changed. nope.

Well, I managed to fly 150 million ks toward my sun, and nothing. It didn't even get sightly bigger. So that's that, time to warp on to the next system....that was an hour well spent.

Yea it appearst to just be backdrop, which is just super lame.

The stars are part of the skybox in every system. Funny how they are always the same size and coloration. Also how every planet/moon has an atmosphere, plant life, and are too close to each other to possibly have a stable solar orbit. No gas giants, dead planets or rogue comets. What a fake tits universe they have made for the game.

More childhood fantasy than sci-fi. Imagine kids taking inspiration from it and aspiring to be astronauts, only to get stoned by the fact the universe isn't like the game one bit.

Hello there

You hit the nail on the head wth the term "Sci-Fi"

Science Fiction.

The game was always pushed as a leap into the amazing rather than reality.

The game would be rather dull with all the planets being airless lumps of rock and ice for the majority.

Gas giants would be nice.

Even games like ED are very loose with reality.
