Good Morning! Roving Reporter Beth Johanson here, for Stevenson Whirlwind Adventures News, bringing you yesterday's highlights today!
First up:
YOU'RE A MEENE ONE, MISTER GRINCH
This reporter, hoping for a lead on a nearby Guardian site, traveled to Meene in hopes of getting an interview with the foremost expert on the Guardians, Ram Tah. Instead, all she got was a mission to find the ruins herself. Thanks a lot, sir! At least you let me use your remote workshop to upgrade my FSD to Grade 4. While in the Meene system, I noticed that there were quite a few wreckage sites out there, so I went for a closer look, hoping for some interesting technological salvage.
Nothing! You're on my list!
NOOB MINER AT KOINE
This reporter next traveled to the Koine system, to photograph the "noob hammers" of Viete Colony, made famous by the Buckyball Race "Armed and Dangerous," which was this reporter's second race. I had hoped for some interviews with the staff there, to get their perspective of past runs. Sadly, I was informed none of the original staff was available for comment, due to still receiving treatment following a collective nervous breakdown.
While in the system, I decided that conditions were idea to check off one of the items that I would have to do myself: exploding an asteroid. The local technicians were kind enough to not laugh too long at the flaw in my plan: my Hauler couldn't carry the necessary equipment! Fortunately for me, they had a Cobra III that was available for purchase, and they didn't gouge me too much on the price.
I promptly set out to in a hunt for the asteroid with my name on it. After arriving on site, I promptly returned to Viete Colony to buy seismic charges, which I foolishly assumed came with the launcher. I soon returned to the resource site, and quickly found an another suitable asteroid, and made a big boom.
I really should've recorded video for this one.
And that was the highlights from last night! My tally so far:
Eleven Down, Seven to Go.
