Colonia too the Bubble, any pit stops along the way?

If I recall, someone mention there are stations now between both place.

Is there a list or web site about them I could view before heading back?

Sweet and thanks. I google it and this was first on the web page.

Colonia Connection Highway

The Colonia Connection Highway is a network of Starports, Outposts, Surface Ports, and Megaships that stretches across 22,000 light-years to connect the Core Systems to the distant Colonia Region, home of the famed Colonia system and Jaques Station. On September 15, 3302, Latugara PLC, an...

Decided to once again slowly head back, get more exploration data and so on.

I won't be following the Colonia Highway though might cross it now and then as won't be to far away from it, hopefully find something interesting.

Thanks Colonia for having me a second time, I'll be back again some day.

Most of the time when I return from Colonia I take the "cylon taxi"
(buying a sidewinder and self-destruct to the starter location, leaving the ship I flew out there).

If that's not an option, @Alec Turner took the scenic route up to Colonia, just apply the map in reverse ;)

Going to Colonia

My journey to Colonia and back is now complete. You can read the journal entries from each of the 46 days I spent on this incredible voyage of discovery by following the links below. If you scroll down past these links you'll find the original forum post where I gathered information about the...

Its only 242 jumps from where I am currently (on way back to Jameson from Sag A via Colonia)...I'm beginning to wonder about the Cylon Taxi but Ive got a nice clocked FSD in my exploraconda. Which I swap into my other general purpose Conda, so Im reluctant to leave it in Colonia. But damn if that isnt a great idea.

I could but I won't, not leaving my Python behind. I have been following Alec travels but for now I will boldly go where no man has been before.
Will eventually hit the highway which seems to be pretty close to the route I took first time to Colonia.

Click to expand...

not telling how to live your life, but you could store the FSD as module in colonia and transfer the module. ships are too expensive, but for single modules that can work.

..but.. word of advice, not that you are as stupid as me....

i was a happy colonial citizen over christmas, enginerd my conda happily (drag drives, fsd range) quiet times.... played in open.

was shot up by a ganker, respawned at jaques, was nervous, switched ships, missclicked, sold the conda....
sidey back to the bubble....

so after the long trip watch the buttons while storing the module.

Might be worth mentioning that Rohini and Gandharvi both have big stations with shipyards and outfitting.

If you're taking multiple ships/modules from the Bubble to Colonia, you can get to Rohini in one evening (especially if you use neutron-boosting) and then book transfers for any other ships or modules to Rohini at the end of your session. Next session, go from Rohini to Gandharvi and book more transfers when you get there. Then Gandharvi to Colonia. The total transfer cost works out the same, but this means you don't have to wait 3 days for your stuff to arrive when you reach Colonia (because by then it's only coming from Gandharvi rather than the Bubble).

Of course, you can reverse that too: Colonia => Gandharvi => Rohini => Bubble.

Or you could take a ride on a Carrier. Though I have discovered that a Carrier can't jump into the Rohini system without selecting a planet (probably because it's a close binary, and this seems to block the default jump-in point near the star: not sure if this always happens, it might be dependent on where the stars are in their orbits).

Awesome info guys, much appreciated. Have noted the two places mentioned and will most likely detour towards them.
Maybe they will have something I could use or upgrade too if they have class "A" stuff.

I headed Easterly for a bit leaving Colonia hoping I would find something unusual and came across two earthlikes, all first to find systems. Now heading for Gandharvi and check it out, make repairs if need be as I am cruising without a repair module.

I'm not sure when I'll get there, have about 150 jumps with a lot of scanning along the way.
Will look you up once I get there if you are still there then I will drop in. I need to upgrade my scanner. You have those? Should have done it in Colonia but forgot about it.

Just check the page and it will give my latest location, I cannot help with the scanner, I do not have Shipyard or Outfitting installed, unless you mean the remote engineering which should be available. Mine is a slow boat, I may mine in one location for several days or up to a week before I move on.
