This one 'blew me away', pun intended.

Look at the center screen shot, upper right corner. It looks like earth is exploding. Is that possible? If not, how the heck, what the heck is going on is that screenshot??

Thats the earth jumping into a new system using some sort of new hyperdrive system can't remember the exact name for it right off hand. SC was experimenting with it quite awhile back and used the earth as a joke I believe.

Oh Jeez, that is the funniest thing I have seen all day, the earth coming out of hyperspace. LOL.

You sure about that E5? Maybe you better look at the shot again. I may be wrong but I don't remember the nebula being that color in earth's region. Plus that is HJ FX around the earth not an explosion.

I wasn't going to post again at this time, but a great idea came up to me, just right now. I will create a new profile, use playmod and RANDOM Earth to see if some of the fireworks are in the current BCM, too (since I haven't used RANDOM before, still newbie)

that would be the planet Majoris

That image is from the time I was experimenting with the removal of a planet post-RANDOM. The effect was that after RANDOM detonated, about five minutes later the planet would be destroyed too.

I decided against it because then the planet/moon would be forever removed from the game since it won't be able to rebuild.

DOH! Had me fooled. I must have been absent that day.
