I just jumped into a system expecting to destroy the sun. There are nine well populated planets in the system, but no sun. How is this possible?

Is there a Ringworld or a Sphereworld? Constructing either of those uses up the star.

Have you modded the game at all maybe its a glitch in your mod.Or maybe your screen is just dirty honest i have made mistakes like that because of a dirty screen.

The imagemod happens to contain a star image that is totally invisible. You could still click on the sector to see the description of the star, though.
Another possibility is that the star is hidden behind a storm. If the storm has a cloaking effect, you will not see the star until you bring in a cloak-penetrating scanner.

I've looked everywhere for the star. There just isn't one in the system. This is the strangest thing I have ever run across.
I have looked at every sector and found nothing. There is one storm in the system, but it is one that damages combat sensors. Besides, I have hyper optics III on my ship anyway (I can see a cloaked enemy ship).
How am I supposed to blow away the system with a sun killer if there is no sun. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Well, you can always create a star, and then blow IT up http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
