#Reddit-based Info

  1. Coordinate Thread - from r/NoMansHigh, this thread explains the Coordinate System, the central mechanic to navigating the No Man's Sky universe and plotting system locations. Also explains how to add "Recommended Locations" & "Last Known Locations" markers to Pilgrim Path App.

  2. Fauna Hall of Fame - from r/NMS_Zoology, this thread lists the largest and smallest species found in various categories.

  5. Galactic Hub Explained - from r/NMSGalacticHub, this thread explains the Galactic Hub Project in detail.

#Apps & Tools

  1. Hello Games Bug Report - Report bugs directly to Hello Games.

  2. Pilgrim Star Path - By pahefu, this web-based app is likely the most widely used NMS app. It allows travelers to navigate the galaxy by use of coordinates. Although it was designed for Euclid, coordinates from other galaxies will work - just be aware that most markers (like "Recommended Locations") are for Euclid. See the Coordinate Thread for a detailed guide to this app.

  3. No Man's Sky Wiki - Federation Approved Wiki - This Gamepedia Wiki features more information and options than other NMS Wikis. While it's primarily used to collect information, you can also add friends, keep and share a journal of your travels, and more.

  4. Hub Management System - By pahefu, this app is a 3D model of the Galactic Hub. Data can be entered on this page, but only if the system is located in one of the 11 Galactic Hub regions.

  5. PlayersLocations - Enter your location for the Pilgrim Star Path app.

  6. RecommendedLocations - Enter interesting destinations for the Pilgrim Star Path app.

#Important Wiki Pages

Note: Many important pages (including some of these) are listed on the main page of the Wiki. Take the time to look through the main page of the Wiki.

  1. Tips and Tricks - The "General Tips" page, it's a highly recommended read for both weathered interlopers and recently-crashed lost travelers.

  2. Beginner's Guide - A guide specifically geared towards those new to the NMS universe.

  3. Civilized Space - A page which explains and lists Civilized Space zones (communities of human players, aka Interlopers or travelers).

  4. Genus (Scientific name) - This page explains the 23 major categories of No Man's Sky fauna (animals). Similar info to the "Genus" section of the Fauna Guide, but more detailed. Ever wondered what exactly a "diplo" is? This will help.

  5. United Federation of Travelers - A page for the United Federation of Travelers (this subreddit's group).

#Infographics

  • Endless Twilight - A guide to finding the poles on a planet, where the sun behaves strangely, by the Bez-Harr Concern.
