Hello and welcome back to my blog!

alt

I have spent a lot of time exploring the Universe of No Man's Sky. Travelling to a different system and landing on its Planets and their Moons is an exciting experience. You don't know what you will find. What would be the environment like, will any creatures be roaming around, what kind of hostile animals or beings you will encounter there and so many other questions are only answered once you land and start exploring it.

I have been on a few different planets in my short career in No Man's Sky Universe and it has been very rewarding so far. I have captured a lot of interesting shots from the game. Here are some of them.

alt


I landed on an extremely hot planet where volcanoes were erupting every few minutes. They would make loud noises and eject a lot of molten lava and rocks into the surroundings. I was able to capture one just after the explosion.

alt


Even though it was a very hot planet, there were plenty of species living in this world. Some were housed underground, probably to save themselves from this scorching heat.

Some of the caves on these planets are filled with plant life too. All kinds of glowing floral and mineral deposits can be found here. Can you spot me in the next shot?

alt


There are some emotes in the game too that I play with when I am taking some cool shots. I like this one a lot.

alt


Most of the planets I visited had extreme weather conditions and just a few were good to live and set up bases. Some of them even had corrupted sentinels (those pesky flying robots who act are mining police or something...lol).

alt


The ringed planets are my favourites. They look beautiful, especially at night. My second planet was a ringed planet too and I have spent a lot of time on this one, even though it is an extremely cold planet.

This game lets you become a true explorer and it has a unique way to reward players for finding good planets. If you land on an unexplored planet (there are literally billions of them), you can rename it once and upload it to the database so if in future any other player finds that planet they will see who discovered it and they will see the update name too.

I renamed the following planet as FungalWaste. It is a Hollow Knight reference and it is also an extreme planet with so many toxic gases and big mushroom-looking plants.

alt


Also, the animals here were truly bizarre too. This planet was rich in basic elements like Carbon, Oxygen and Nitrogen.

alt

It also had some buildings. I found an "Archive" while I was exploring this planet. It didn't do much but you could learn some more lore about the races. I wasn't much interested in that though.

alt


I am not sure which planet I got the next shot from. But it looks like the one that I told you earlier about the planet with Corrupted Sentinels.

alt


Another weird being I saw roaming on a planet is this living sentinel animal species. I don't know what to call it. I didn't spend much time on this planet to investigate them further. It was from one of my online sessions that I played with one of my friends.

But you sure can give them food and ride them like most of the other animal species.

alt


But this game is about Space Exploration and how can I not show you some space shots...right?

I love how they got these Gas clouds or Nebula or whatever they are called perfect!

alt


You can enter Asteroid Belts and mine Asteroid and get precious metals like Silver, Gold, Platinum etc.

alt


Going at Hyperdrive speed is fun too. You can cover a lot of distances easily in seconds and the animations are not bad either.

alt


Space Fights are also fun, especially when you upgrade your Starship a bit and install more weapons and better technology modules into it. I didn't know blowing up things in space could be that fun.

alt


There are a lot of planets, Star systems and entire Galaxies to be explored. This game gives you complete freedom to do whatever you like. There are even automated farming and mining stuff in the game. You can build some cool-looking bases. Buy new spaceships, customise them fully and drive to corners of the Universe. I love it!

Hope you enjoyed these captures!
