Greetings fellow explorers.
I've just returned from my journey across the Galaxy, trying to get as far from the Sun as possible. Unfortunately, my Asp wasn't optimally configured, something I realized when approaching the edge, so I had to turn back after reaching IORADY FG-J B36-0, 65,011ly from Sol because I couldn't find a path that would take me further that was within the jump distance of my Asp (~24ly). I've had a few accidents, so you can see my cockpit window being anything but pristine
I saw a lot of nice sights on the trip, but I don't think I saw anything really special. I've put up an album with some images from the journey at Picasa if anyone is interested. These are a mix between screenshots taken to store important information (name, distances), pretty views, and random screenshots taken by my cat.
Currently in the process of selling all the system data. I visited just under 10,000 new systems during the trip, and while I didn't do surface scans of all systems/bodies, I did carry an advanced discovery scanner to register all the bodies. As all of you explorers know, selling data from 10k systems is not much fun. Thankfully, I have two monitors, so I sell data in Elite on one while playing Dragon Age Inquisition (a game long neglected because of E) on the other
Forgot to record the date and time of my departure, but it was quite a few weeks since I set out, and countless hours behind my flight stick before I returned. Felt weird docking again after all this time. I am not sure of the exact distance traveled either, but because of the path I had to take to get to the outer edge, the round trip was something between 150,000 and 200,000 ly in total. Don't think I'll be doing that again anytime soon.
