Ariel was always a special place. It was the first planetary body I landed on when the beta of Horizons was released. For me, it is one of the most atmospheric places (although it doesn't really have one).
So, time to do the circumnavigation of Ariel!
I took in my trusty Cobra Mk III "Shamash" to Sol, flew 9000-or-so light seconds to Ariel and positioned her as accurately as possible over the north pole. This will be my starting point.
I have not set a schedule but will regularly report progress in this thread. As you approach Ariel, you will undoubtedly notice her deep ridges and canyons. Purposely, I have not done any scouting for this trip. I will randomly choose a direction and see what the sky spirit throws at me.
My plan is to drive this in Open.
