Well, the only thing of interest out here so far is... about 18 fleet carriers in system? ;]

There's been some interesting developments going on in the upper plane of our galaxy...


Yes, it's rather interesting. They are telling pilots to stay away from the system ( Wregoe GA-X B3-0 ). Which means they expect everyone to go there and find...what? :)

Edit: It's about 1600 LY out, in the middle of nothing. I think I may mosey out that way myself. Just because.
I suspect a trap, as always, there were reports of lengthening FC jump times as the horde started to head out there last night so I expect once all the destination slots are full the Thargoids will destroy all the stars for 500Ly around trapping everyone.

Decades ago I was friends with a bunch of Star Trek RPGers and I suggested that as all televised Star Trek was canonical and the cartoon series included Kzinti therefore Known Space was in the canon so why not have them detect the core explosion. So my suggestion about the trap isn’t a new departure.

You'll probably need to grind for special fleet carrier mats - assuming you take it - in case a new Thargoid ship supermegadicts your jump.

Sheesh... when did I get so cynical? :D
Well you joined the forums in ’18 so maybe four years ago.
 
I may never make it to the Thargoid area, I keep getting distracted.

This time it was a very good distraction, though. I found a system with 2 planets that had undiscovered Stratum Techtonicas. They were even easy to find, and the planets were quite lovely.

I decked my DBX out in the new "Survey" ship kit, and it's pretty cool. The little radar thing even rotates slowly, as if scanning. Plus it has some nice sticky-out bits. A change of pace!

A rather decent payout :)
