How to revisit planets in No Man’s Sky

After you’ve discovered a couple of star systems, returning to old planets becomes a bit complicated. You’ll have to know the name of the planet you want to visit – we suggest you name at least one planet in each system, or keep a travelog. Here are the steps you need to follow:

• Press Options to open up the menu.
• Go to the Discoveries tab.
• Examine the list of the left. Find the planet you want to revisit on it.
• Memorize the name of its system.
• Make sure you’re in space, in your ship, then press Down on the D-Pad to open the star map.
• It will be centered on your current system. Follow the thick lines and check out the systems they lead to. One of them will be the one you’re looking for.
• Once you arrive, just rotate the ship until you see your final destination.

Of course, this gets more and more complicated as you progress. As you discover more star systems, finding the one you want will become harder and harder. But by then, you’ll probably have no reason to go back. The way to victory is onwards!
