So after 20 hours in ED I managed to buy another ship. 2 actually. An Eagle, and a Hauler. I like to keep my hauler around this one area I've seen a lot of mining resources (LT 18486). However it didnt have a shipyard, so I had to store it at LHS 3447. Well my Eagle is at Chiba, is there no way for me to store my hauler at LHS 3447 and retrieve my Eagle at Chiba? Or am I a noob that is missing something? I guess that's my first question. Question number 2 is the only resource I've found is Bauxite haha. Is there a way to tell what resource is where on the system map? I've searched for it, but I guess I have too many unexplored areas because no planets are showing "mineral rich" on my system map. Thanks again for the help. RVBCABOOSE in game feel free to add a useless noob.

I can't help with Q#2, but for Q#1, no, you're not missing anything. If you want to keep two or more ships, you have to buy a sidewinder to go to the other location, sell the sidey, and take your second ship back home. I have not seen the devs say there's another way to do this in the future, but who knows. My advice is to sell the ship you're not using. Yes, you take a 10% loss. But when you want that one back, just sell the ship you're in a buy that other one and re-kit it.
Howdy,
been flying that area for some time. I have a notebook that I keep track of my findings (really helpful)
KINI: imports indite, Bertrandite and Gallite Go to ZMEYAAYA they export Indite
ZETA AQUILAE : exports lepidolite, bertrandite, gold and silver
this is a start... I start by going to the system map while in station... go down the list of planets and write down any that are under 8 ly from the station ( this is a 1 jump) range. go to the galaxy map and look each of the planets up and note their imports and exports... when I get to a target planet... open up the commodities table. On the upper right corner there is a drop down... chose a new target planet and the items that the planet you are on will show what it imports and exports on an irregular basis.
hope this helps jump start your search for resources... will be glad to help just look me up.
