Sounds like something out of a fairy tale I know but this is serious stuff! 
Soon after starting the game I bought an Adder to try a little exploring and found I quite enjoyed it. I headed back to civilised space to get some credits together to purchase an Asp for some deep space exploring. The stories coming in from Erimus, Ranger0, Allitnil, Nutter and others helped to inspire as well.
Anyway, after a few days of trading in rares I managed to get more than enough credits together to fit out an Asp for the task. (Thanks Nutter for your tutorial...very helpful btw.) Head out on the maiden voyage, not planning on going too far to start as I wanted to test my configuration. About 100Ly out I came across a system that had not been explored and as it had quite a few planets and gas giants in I decided it would be a good spot to start some scanning.
I got to the eighth planet in the system which turned out to be a Y(Brown Dwarf) with a few planetoids around it and then turned to head out to the next planet when I was dropped out of cruise. Interesting...starting FSD instantly drops me back with the "Too Close" message. So there I am 35.9Ls from this hairy, little monster 100Ly from civilisation and nobody in sight. Oops, spoke too soon. A local security wallop pops in and tells me to hold still while he checks out my hold! I'm not going anywhere fast so he is welcome to check out any damn thing he likes! I don't have a hold in any case...some of these security types are intellectually challenged. While he is deciding his next move I hit the FSD in his general direction more to see if I can get out of this hole. Got dropped back again with the same message and my new found "friend" had disappeared.
Does anybody have any useful tips to getting myself away from this clingy star? I have tried pointing my tale at it and hitting the FSD to no avail!
Cheers,
Rathbones the not so lucky explorer!
