But you'll be there in ten days at this rate!
Not many distractions in the first few kly but I'm sure things will slow down later. Which reminds me, has anyone got any good advice on how to look for Stellar Phenomena on a trip like this? There's the Codex of course but it's kinda useless as it only lists three examples for each. There's also a great list over here ..But you'll be there in ten days at this rate!
A lot of types of them do require nebulae, but not all.One thing that I wondered - do they only appear in nebulae?
Oh that's brilliant - thanks!This is what I used for Signs of Life Alec, put in a system on your route and pick up to 10 codex entries to look for. Might have to do a few searches to cover all of the Stellar Phenomena you want to look for. https://www.edsm.net/en/search/systems
Edit: Oh, and bump the search radius up a bit.
Indeed. Even as I was saying it I just knew you wouldn't do it that wayn.b. I gather it's actually possible to access Livery from the main menu ... but where's the fun in that eh!
Thanks Alec o7For anyone who enjoys following a jolly good adventure here on the forum I have another recommendation for you.
Cmdr @sgurr is attempting to do what I'd written off as basically impossible ... he's circumnavigating the crazy ice world of Pomeche 2C in an SRV!!!
Go over there and show some support, he's gonna need it!

This deserves its own thread .... EDIT ... don't mind me ... it's in its own threadDay 1 - 18.12.3306
And so it begins. After yesterday's excitement curating a little Buckyball Triathlon ..
.. for Frontier's 2020 Anniversary livestream in front of 10,000 Twitch viewers I am now definitely ready to leave the responsibilities of the bubble behind me for a while. I'm starting at Napier Installation in Ross 671 (site of yesterday's race) but despite the list in the OP here I don't yet have a firm destination in mind so initially I decide to just head down about 250ly to Kuwemaki (home of enigineer Hera Tani), don't know why, just somewhere to go while I settle in.
And so, farewell to Napier Installation, farewell to my friends in the ongoing Scarab Mastery Championship and farewell to the bubble - adventure beckons!
Kuwemaki is a cool location, but uneventful and I realise I have literally zero idea why I came here.
For my next tentative step out into the black (and perhaps that's what this is, just a couple of those hesitant little steps we take before the big leap) I decide to visit one of the lowest inhabited systems in the bubble, Guinasan.
Nothing there but a small outpost. Enough of this hesitancy ... I plot a course for Mammon Monitoring Facility, the first location on the list. Time to actually leave the bubble behind.
It's a very cool system, very pretty.
I have no need of its facilities tho' so I plot a course for the next stop along the Colonia connection highway (Hillary Depot on Blu Thua AI-A c14-10 : A 4 a) and leave this rather lovely asteroid base in style.
Then it's time to settle into what will no doubt become a very familiar rythmn - jump, roll in to a good fuel scooping trajectory, check the FSS, carefully time engaging the FSD against the last bit of fuel scooping with the aim of allowing the temperature to rise into the 90's but not beyond, and off we go into the next jump!
About 25 minutes later and I arrive at Hillary Depot to discover it's a superb location, with the planetary base sitting at the foot of an ideal little base jump.
Yeah, OK ... this journey's gonna be fun! Time to let one of SRV's stretch its legs a bit.
Right, that'll do for day one - 2,107 ly covered, some 20,000+ left to go.ColoniaAdventure here I come!
