After busy days navigating the path through the overly dense center of the galaxy, here we were: at almost 30,800LY from the Sun, near the core of the Galaxy.
I landed my spaceship, Nao Victoria, on Armstrong Landing, at WP 11: STUEMEAE KM-W C1-342 (SAGITTARIUS A*). While the other pilots of the Distant Worlds expedition were relaxing and having some fun with their SRVs, I decided to take a walk around the neighborhood.
I did a bit of mineral prospecting, looting materials for SRV repairs and refueling, when the radar of my vehicle catched a very strong echo.
I chased the origin of the signal, which seemed to be on the side of a rocky ridge nearby.
And yes, here it was: a dispersed collection of metallic debris. In short, a spaceship crash site.
After lurking around the debris, I located an occupied escape pod! It was functional, with all green lights on, so there was a survivor: probably the pilot of the space ship.
It seems that, finally, I will be able to use the First Aid box of my ship.
I don't know what happened to the crashed space ship. Was it a landing mistake? Maybe an engine malfunction? Thargoids? ...or simply, too much narcotics at the cargo bay?
I don't have a properly answer but, for sure, this long journey for the Distant Worlds will no more be a lonely one for me. Now I have an additional task for this amazing trip, I will have to decide when to open the Escape Pod. Should I wait until we are back at the civilization bubble, or should I simply look for a bottle of rum, take a sip and open the Pod?
