I've been running Lure of the Expanse with my Rogue Trader group and they've finished the first part and are into the second. While all the 'nexus points' are within the Heathen Stars area of the Expanse, I can't see where it says Quppa-Psi-12 or the Dread Pearl are. It implies in several places that one or both are in the Heathen Stars area and we know it takes an average of 50 days to get from Footfall to Quppa-Psi which is the equivalent of crossing a sector. Have I missed anything obvious that points to where they are? I really like to place my planets so I can get consistent base travel times, especially when there are other Rogue Traders chasing between them too. Have I missed anything obvious, or did other GMs just place them where it suited them

There's no specific location, just place them wherever fits your needs.

I sat Quppa-Psi-12 to the stellar 'south' of the heathen stars, just above the 'Undred, 'Undred Teef'. Haven't decided where to place the Dread Pearl yet... most likely about halfway from that location to the Rifts of Hecaton, so a bit 'southwest' of the Heathen Stars.

Thanks for confirming I hadn't missed an official location. I think I'll put the Dread Pearl squarely inside the Heathen Stars, and Quppa-Psi-12 just to the 'south'. As most of the Rogue Traders are lagging behind the Explorers to get to Quppa-Psi, I want to keep all the locations fairly close together.
