- Is this a good system?

what do you think about portals or wormholes in elite?
You have EDScout, that see if your current route have been submited to EDDB. Don't know if keep working.
-
What do you use to enhance your experience?
I can’t believe no one has mentioned ED Scout yet. It’s an incredibly helpful tool for exploration. Here is a short review video of the tool.
-
Fighter jets show the direction the plane is travelling on the HUD, would this be a useful feature in E:D (especially low-altitude flying)?

Simple question
Pretty sure edscout may have something you are looking for. It tells you the value and some quick info about planets
-
Got my Cobra and 750k. Reckon I'm good to go exploring now.
just pick up a detailed surface scanner and fuel scoop then you're set, ED Scout is something worth considering too.
-
Is it worth doing the scans?
If you are on PC, there is a 3rd party tool that really helps with this called ED Scout. It will tell you the approximate value of a planet before you surface scan it so you don't waste your time scanning worthless planets. It's really great. Here is an EXAMPLE of a system in ED Scout that I scanned recently. The list of planets at the top are "high value targets" that the tool recommended I scan. The list of planets below that are the ones I actually scanned. You can download the tool and learn more HERE.

This system I scanned came to a value of over 8 mil! Now is a really good time to turn it in with the current CG bonus of x3 value to exploration data.
The app is a bit flakey and stops working pretty regularly. To fix this, just close it, and then relaunch it. You can get it HERE.

Exploring Credits
ED Scout is much more compact and less featured, but has the ability to display output to a tablet or phone, in case you don't have a second monitor. https://github.com/joncage/ed-scout

Felt like i'd hit the motherlode
Just looked it up on EDcodex, looked cool, installed the .exe from this link and it's instantly working lol Thx OP! I had some extra space on the tablet and a dire need for this tool!

How to get rich with sampling space mushrooms, a tl;dr
You need three things: a small ship with a decent jump range + fuel scoop, an Artemis suit from your local station shop, and Elite Observatory with the BioInsights plugin.
-
Exobiology does NOT earn you 200mil/hr
Elite Observatory (Core) and BioInsights Plugin let you see planet values after you FSS Scan a new system. I had like 3.5b in just a few days, filtered stars by F G K and skipped planets that didn't have at least 1 signal worth 7m.
- Question about Elite Observatory
-
This is what 5 systems can get you while doing exobiology
Could use Observatory along with the BioInsights plugin which pretty accurately predicts possible bio and their value. Saves a lot of time if you know there's nothing of high value to scan and skip those bodies.
-
Need a step by step guide on how to install and use ED Observatory
Most likely you'll want the most recent ObservatorySetup.exe from this page: https://github.com/Xjph/ObservatoryCore/releases

Is this a good system?
Elite Observatory is a lot like this too - https://github.com/Xjph/ObservatoryCore
- Gathering Biological Samples.
-
Is there a way to see how many bio samples am I carrying with me?
ObservatoryCore https://github.com/Xjph/ObservatoryCore with BioInsights plugin https://edjp.colacube.net/observatory and you'll never need any guesswork again. EDDiscovery Statistics tab gives total scan values for any time period (current day, last week, since last dock, since custom date).
