Well, what I didn't know is that a player's colonization minister WILL see them and sent colony ships to that location. ( I don't normally use this minister.) However I am told that you still cannot colonize the planet until you have the tech to see the planet. So if your intent is to keep these planets uncolonized, then this ability IS the proper one!
Uh.

Dumb question: how in the nine frozen hells does one manage to NOT SEE a bloody ring world ... ? Three billion times the surface area of the earth ... kinda hard to miss, n'est-ce pas?
