I depends from planet to planet easiest way to find out is to build about 10 or so and divide the power output by 10 to find the energy per sat and then do the math for how many to need to get you 300k total energy

that still doesnt answer my question, if we are just talking only solar stats, how much does it take if i get 17 energy per solar sat?

300,000 divided by 17. You do the math

Isn't it aroudn 10k solar sats for 300k energy? Their is no exact number to place because different planets have different solar out puts do to temperature.

that is simple math... if you get 17 energy per just divide it into the amount of energy needed for the graviton.... which you can find the answer to in your technologies.

I would suggest doing it on a hotter planet. It only took 8k for me to get it

Yes definately do it on the hottest planet you have to not have to build as many, because if you are trying to get graviton and only using the sats you will have quite a lot to build and crashing sats is some players hobby.

Slot 1 is the hottest and slot 15 is the coldest. Sometimes one slot that should be colder may be hotter than another, and the best one to do this in would be slot 4 since it is closest to slot 1 but still in the slot 4-7 area so it has higher chances of being bigger, but some players colonize slot 1 and use it only for that then abandon it.
