Can I get it by riding a carrier to Colonia?

As long as you get off the carrier at the other end. Can't remember if you have to make a jump, I don't think so, but you need to undock.
Now you have successfully gimped this part, what is next?

For all that is Braben, 5000 light years isn't that far. Get yourself a DBX and see the Galaxy, who knows you might find Raxxla.

I hated long distance traveling. When I first went to do this I wasn't happy. Decided to make the best of it doing my first bubble leaving jaunt to Cats Eye Nebula.
Ended up being a chill session and did the exploration stuff for the first time.

Good grief, it's come to this.
Wouldn't have been so bad if there were more unique things to do that far outside of the bubble. Feels like unless you are a sightseer the game gets pretty empty out there.
5kly is not far, its a 2 hour trip.
and if you are smart as well as aware, a visit to the shard gardens in horizons is a great start and accomplishes something valuable at the same time.
and if you chose a cheap ship to do it in, and have no carto data or bounties or missions that can fail upon death, you can self destruct to get back to the place you last docked at or lave I spose..
I have done it that way several times..its fast. .due to having multiple accounts.
my newest account, I went to the shard gardens in my first week, then unlocked all the guardian stuff had about 7kly by the time I noticed, then just turned on the self destruct and opted for a sidey in a starter system
took more than 2 hours but was very profitable for materials. and because I had landed many times, my only good option was fly back or lose a dbx and go to a starter system.
dbx is cheap and I'm lazy, sooo easy choice

I don't think it's just the distance that puts people off normal travelling, but nothing being there for them when they get there. I advise a trip to Colonia, as its lovely place to get away from the hussle and bussle of the bubble. Can unlock other engineers there too if you decide to make it your new home.
As for the ship, I can't explain it, but I never get tired flying my Phantom. I can just chew up light years in that thing without even thinking about it.

Colonia is indeed a great place to go if you want to have nothing interesting to do.
