Freak occurances

I've been playing Oolite for a while now, but it's still full of surprises.

This is what happened when I lost my way and wandered into witchspace while playing Long Way Round. A new clean pirate appeared every few seconds. Lots of fun, but there were too many and I had to leave in a hurry.

Later the same day I came across this. 2 Cojoined cargo cannisters which are impossible to shoot or to scoop. Very mysterious. What next? 2 headed sheep?

Conjoined cannisters are quite common on multiple scooping at speed, when the tractor beam is less efficient they clump together, if yours occurred "naturally", then that sure is a freak event.
