-In this guide, we will cover how to navigate the universe and find a [[Planets|planet]]. You'll learn to use the [[StarMap]] and [[Telescope]], as well as what to look for. If you already know how to do this, consider skipping to Looking for a planet. Finding a [[Planets|planet]] may take some time, don't give up!

 ==Navigating the universe==
-To navigate the universe, you will need to learn how to use the [[StarMap]], [[Telescope]], and [[HyperDrive]]. Let's start with the former.

+=== The Starmap ===
 The [[StarMap]] is divided into the Universe and Solar views. You are able to toggle them by clicking <code>Mode</code> in the bottom-right of the [[StarMap]].
-In the Universe view, you will be able to see nearby [[Star|stars]] and their coordinates. The Solar view will show your current solar system; it's star and orbiting planets.<gallery mode="slideshow" caption="A StarMap in the Universe and Solar views.">
+In the Universe view, you will be able to see nearby [[Star|stars]] and their coordinates. The Solar view will show your current solar system; it's [[star]] and orbiting [[planets]].
+Clicking on a planet displayed on the [[StarMap]] will automatically configure attached the coordinate property of attached [[HyperDrive|HyperDrives]] and [[Telescope|Telescopes]] to it's coordinates.<gallery mode="slideshow" caption="A StarMap in the Universe and Solar views.">

+=== The Telescope ===
+The [[Telescope]] is used to look at the properties of celestial bodies. These include;
+* Planet/Star type ''<small>(See [[Planets]] page for more info)</small>''
+* [[Resources]] <small>(See link for more info)</small>
+* Atmosphere <small>''(Breathable/Non-breathable)''</small>
+* Average Temperature
+* Gravity
+* Rings (True/False)
+* Tidally locked <small>''(True/False)''</small>
+* Radius ''<small>(Only for [[Star|stars]]/[[Black hole|black holes]])</small>''
+Before entering a [[Planets|planet]], you should always look at its properties as entering a [[Planets|planet]] with conditions you are not prepared to deal with may prove deadly.
+You should be especially wary of hot [[planets]], as they may set your thrusters ''<small>(And if their is high temperature enough even [[PowerCell|PowerCells]] and [[SolarPanel|Solar panels]])</small>'' ablaze if proper cooling is not supplied. If this happens, try to quickly craft and attach a few [[Cooler|Coolers]] to a power source, and then leave the game to prevent the fire from spreading or completely destroying your thrusters.
+To view a celestial body's properties, simply configure the [[Telescope|Telescope's]] Coordinates property to the celestial body's Universe coordinates and click it. Be aware that the [[Telescope]] requires power to operate.
+=== The HyperDrive ===
+The [[HyperDrive]] is used to traverse the Universe.
