Mar 30, 2017 at 18:03 comment added Cort Ammon @Avernium I think it depends on how colonized the average planet is. I think this could happen early on, when there's a few heavily colonized planets and then mostly outposts from there. Planets are big. I do not doubt however, that a FTL capable civilization would realize something was going on if they came across Courescant.
Mar 30, 2017 at 18:01 comment added Avernium While this is creative, it seems highly unbelievable that not just one, but multiple, FTL-capable spacefaring civilizations care so little about examining new worlds that they could manage to miss another spacefaring civilization while cataloguing the planets they’re present on.
