New player here. A bit surprised to see this mission "procedurally" generated. Has anyone else seen this?

why is "Israel" even in the vocabulary of the random name generator?

That's exactly what I was thinking. I did find a link to an existing star system online: "Israel Hands". Someone "discovered" it in 2018. https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Israel_Hands I'm still figuring out their RNG, so I don't know if this is part of their vocab or part of the curated content.

from how I understand this Israel Hands has been renamed by players from the name "Gotosu-Ava".

Oh, that's interesting. So perhaps this is pulling text from human-named systems? I guess that's more understandable. Still something they could moderate better.

Iirc moderation is report driven. You can report named things as inappropriate via your discoveries tab. If no one reported it, I presumbe nobody would have reviewed it.
