I like that
I love how everyones jaws collectively dropped at that picture, nice job [up]
Great shot! I couldn't give you a +rep so virtu rep+1
I tried to do those things where you screenshot how far away from Sol you are, but unfortunately this isn't the furthest from Sol I've been cos I've left the Nebula, and I don't have a Sol permit either...
Close enough in the scheme of things, my furthest point from memory is 44,082. May just keep going unil I can't go any further before heading back to the bubble.
yeah, I was thinking I might wander out to around 50,000 (it's a nice round number) as I'm already out this far and then see how I feel - I've only got a jump of 35ly, so not sure how far I can get before I run out of range.
+1 real rep to LostLegend on behalf of all those who had to rely on virtual.
I was thinking of staying out here like you two, but I haven't spent an extended period of time for months now. Plus I want to prep an explorer Cutter for an undisclosed reason...
lol that it isn't actually as mystical a reason as I'm making it [big grin]

Good to see your still out here Gary. A few of us are heading back towatd the bubble but there are still DRX representatives out this way so you'll be in very good company.
As fun as the shenanigans in Myoangooe were, I've decided to begin pushing towards Beagle Point.
To those who are heading that way, gimme a shout for some en-route tom foolery and various anti-space-madness-activities
And for those heading back to le Bublè for the 12 Days of DRX-mas, I wish you a safe journey!
Fear not, I shall be back for new year and hopefully whatever devious outing Chris and co. have dreamed up for team DRX [big grin]
I will of course also continue participating in this here fine thread!
Right on, Commanders! [cool]

oh man, that jovian looks like it's made of parma violets...gurgle gurgle...
Nice pic Tom, no chance on our side of the pond. Cloud cove too thick especially on my side of the Pennine's.
I'm a fan of round numbers after my short jaunt this evening it's just under 45k, I've got my eye on a Neutron. I'm nine jumps short, with approx 42Ly jump range. 50K is a good round number. I can also feel Sag A calling. I'll see how it goes as I got burnt a little this evening by a triple star system that thought I would look good at 200% heat for a little while. Squeaking bum time.Also as an after thought not had any issues plotting routes in the galaxy map since we left Jaques. Which was around the time 2.2 landed. Not sure about everyone else but I'm a lot happier with the galaxy map and other things that have changed.
With that range you can get all the way to Beagle Point no problem, and much much further with boost. You'd be only the second FDev to get there! (that we know of). Check out Route 33 or The Smuggler's Path for your shortest confirmed routes across "The Abyss".
Parma Violets!!!!! Not had them in beards! [haha]
Neither have I, but that colour screams 'parma violet' to me
Made it to 45k tonight as well, and have already done Sag A* and got the achievement
The new route plotting since 2.2 is much improved and makes travelling around the core much easy.Beagle Point is still ~24kly and after another distraction tonight I'm down to 82% Hull so I'm likely to turn around at 50k and head back for some repairs and a new coat of paint. Thinking of trying the Engineers when I get back to see if I can treat the old girl to an upgraded FSD for Christmas.
