Spent the afternoon and evening searching for systems with landable high metal content worlds...I must say they are few and far between out here. Mostly iceballs with the occasional non-landable HMCW. I found three systems with landable HMCWs:

IORANT NC-D C12-1
IORANT ON-I b23-0
IORANT UU-E B25-0 B (about 5 planets)

I also found a water world:

Had a nice chat with Cula Ta and Traveller_GG this afternoon.

'twas a good chat :)
Kind of looking forward to meeting up again - going to be a seriously bizarre moment in that I met you when I was on the way BACK from BP over 2 months ago and here we are again! Same ships and everything :D

Agreed, Traveller_GG...and it seems like such a long time ago too.

I echo that, was good to catch up. Good to know I and several others are heading to you in an effort to find them mats.
Looking forward to you touching down at BP

It looked like a SRV towing a kite at 8:40! :D :D


(5K off and making a beeline straight to you, to help out with prospecting for jump juice - could you please let me know which systems you've looked at?)

Day 123 completed (at 2am Perth time):

All I can say is the Rock Rats are awesome! Thanks to Cmdr Eisen and Baroness Galaxy for their efforts in helping collecting jump mats.

Initially I scouted out some of the systems near BP looking for suitable landable planets/moons while they flew hell-for-leather in my direction, with Eisen arriving first. The Baroness showed up later (having had to travel at least 3000LY to get there.

We then spent a solid 2-3 hours collecting mats (or was it more?).

I started out needing: (to make it one way to BP)

54 Vanadium
34 Germanium
28 Cadmium
20 Niobium
4 Arsenic
4 Polonium and
4 Yttrium

Now I need:

43 Vanadium
20 Germanium
27 Cadmium
17 Niobium
0 Arsenic
4 Polonium and
3 Yttrium

Thanks again Cmdrs for all your help and patients (especially with the stupid Discord malfunctions). See you again soon ;)

And the videos are great!

Please let me know which systems you've visited and I'll try others.

and Frawd - we need to arrange another photoshoot: An Anaconda next to a Sidewinder on (or just above) the surface will look amazing :D

It's only been 100,000LY since we last met.
