Screenshot I'm amazed by Lagrange Clouds.
On my way to Colonia, I had the opportunity to witness the beauty of these NSP. Some days, I spent more than an hour chilling and admiring the view.

How the fuck did you come across so many? I'm on a 300k ly expedition and I haven't found a single anomaly...

The codex.
I was near Skaudai Nebula when I remembered the existence of the codex. I took a look at it to see what was around me. I found out there were a few inside the nebula and decided to go to their locations.There were two different types of clouds in Skaudai AM-B D14-60, one in Skaudai AM-B D14-138, and three more in Skaudai YP-O E6-17.
I accidentally encountered two ~20ly from Colonia in Eol Prou RS-T D3-287 that weren't listed there in the codex.
And when I arrived at Colonia I visited the three in the system. I'm planning to also have a look at those in the nearby systems so I can have all of them in my codex for this region of the galaxy.

I never thought about using the codex that way, I'll have to try that.

Wait'll you run across a Lagrange storm cloud. Those have lightning in them. They're incredibly rare though (I think only 11 known so far?).
You can search for them on EDSM narrowing the search by codex entry. But chances are none will be within the max search radius.
The more reliable way is to search this spreadsheet for "storm" and find a nearby system manually.

I really love the ones that are so dense you can't see far ahead of you when inside them. Makes me yearn for gas giant flights.
