(based on discussion from this thread):

Can you use the Sense Surroundings application of the UtF skill to sense Yuuzhan Vong?

They're species traits don't say otherwise. And I would say yes, you could. Because since they don't exist in the force, a Jedi attempting to sense other beings is going to feel that "gap" in the force where the Vong is.

Sure you can, but it takes a DC 30 check to do so. It is right there on page 34 of LECG.

If you have a Lambent crystal attuned in you glow stick, the normal DC apply. That makes things easier see?

I don't know how I keep missing those. Thanks.

BTW: regarding the lambent crystal, it says you can ignore the penalties to UtF to Sense Force and Sense Surroundings. Am I correct in assuming the Sense Force penalty to sense Vong is -5 and the Sense Surroundings penalty to sense Vong is -10?

That is not exactly correct. The normal DC for Sense Surroundings is 15, that goes up to 30 to detect Vong.
