This is a great and invaluable guide. I'm glad it's been stickied in the Guides and Tutorials section, and pleased you have it added to your thread.

Me too. I think you deserve a call from Her Maj CMDR, for all you do for us. Then you'd be Sir Alec!

Just stumbled across this thread. Thanks Alec! By the time I am finished clicking on each link and absorbing the information within, humankind will have overcome the main obstacles to interstellar travel, radiation and gravity, and Alpha Centauri has long been explored by laser driven fully automated Light-Sail deepspace explorers, and we will have explored about 1.2 million exo planets (currently roughly 4.000)
