Operation Autumn Squirrel Expedition
"Like Squirrels gathering nuts in their nests to prepare for winter..."
What are we doing?
Explorers old and new, miners, scouts, and spreadsheet titans alike from the Buur Pit Community are deploying a carrier in the name of the Deep Space Support Array!
The team intends to deploy the DSSA Buurian Anchorage to the Dryau Awesomes, and to establish the vessel as a permanent safe haven and Tritium Fuel Depot for all travelers passing by above the galactic plane!
Do we want you?
We absolutely do want you on the team! We are accepting any and all who wish to participate in any way. We need miners, scouts, and those just wishing to hitch a ride to enjoy the sights are welcome as well!
How are we doing the thing?
In a nutshell, we are deploying the carrier from the Buurian Protectorate home system of Tewanta, to the Dryau Awesomes (Dryau Ausms KG-Y e3390).
The entire trip will be one very large logistical operation as well as a grand sightseeing tour!
We will be traveling along an 8-Waypoint itinerary! Along the way, we will be stopping at visually spectacular systems.
You may find our fleet carrier jump schedule and full itinerary, here!

Mining and Scouting Operations
Waypoint systems will see scouting and mining operations going on to keep the carrier's tritium reserves topped up.
The scouts support the miners, and the miners support the carriers!
Upon Arrival at our Destination
Once we arrive at the Awesomes, the scouting wing will set out to find tritium hotspots.
The Buur Pit Mining Company Corps of Cartographers (BPM3C) will get to work once mining locations are found, to create Tritium maps in the surrounding systems.
The ultimate goal once we arrive is to set up a potential tritium supply line to the Buurian Anchorage for future fueling operations.
Future Tritium maps will also be open source, and available to all people passing by wishing to mine for their own tritium fuel.
If this sounds like the style of expedition for you, please have a look at the mission briefing document for a fully detailed outline of what we are doing!
This sounds like fun, but are you going to leave me stranded out there?
No! The BPS Buurian Reflux will be traveling with us the entire way!
After our mission is complete, the Reflux will be departing for Colonia to provide an opportunity for commanders to unlock the Engineers and pin bluebrints. After a short time, the Reflux will throw everyone back up to the bubble!
