Top Twenty Lists of Traveller

[Spinward Scout]

Hi Everybody!

I've been thinking about making some Top 20 lists for Traveller, but I'm having a little trouble coming up with categories. Here's what I've got so far:

Top 20 Worlds of Known Space
Top 20 Minor Races
Top 20 Technological Wonders

What else could I add to this list?

I was thinking about excluding the Major Races Homeworlds in the Top 20 list. But then, everything has some interest to it, otherwise, we wouldn't be playing the game, right?
