After intense rush to Beagle Point from Colonia and making it there for 48 hours, as well as helping many explorers and curious visitors in the first hours of its arrival, the crew of the Nanachi is now... well, bored.
The initial idea to remain in The Abyss to explore the stars, which are mostly already mapped, is meeting more and more frowns, showing that there is already a flame for something bigger. Much bigger. Much more daring and with a real risk of absolute failure.
In the end, the final decision was made - FC Nanachi will take flight, pushing itself to the very limit, to reach the edges of the galaxy and do the unthinkable - make a trip around the whole galaxy! Starting point - Beagle Point. Ending point - Beagle Point. That's a lot of points!
As of now, the carrier is open for tritium trades with the hope it will get some extra fuel before eventually resorting to mining it. Any support is appreciated!
The planned repairs on the heavily damaged hull from the previous series of intense jumps, are scheduled to be finalized this Thursday, after which the final preparations will begin and the tritium market will be closed in order to optimize the mass. After that, the carrier will formally jump to Ishum's Reach from where it will begin the dive into the dark between checkpoint stars.
Since the carrier has limited fuel, which will be enough for 20-25 full jumps, it will stop and remain at or nearby the current checkpoint in order to mine tritium, which will be enough to reach the next leg of the journey.
It is highly advised that any CMDR that is still on the carrier, to consider his/her stay on board! This will be a hazardous venture to stars hard to or not reachable at all to unprepared vessels! The crew of the Nanachi will NOT be accountable for any stranded ships!
If any CMDR decides to stay, it is highly advised to remain on board of the Nanachi between jumps, since no warning will be given when it moves again.
The more safer periods to explore around is when the carrier reaches a checkpoint system and needs to gather fuel (the checkpoints will be posted soon). Be warned, though, the carrier will prepare to jump shortly after it reaches enough fuel to the next checkpoint. Also, the carrier may continue jumping even when reaching a checkpoint, if the fuel is enough to reach two checkpoints at once.
Depending on the day, delays may occur such as stopping between checkpoints for the night or for other personal reasons. It is not advised to use these periods to leave the carrier!
Additional note - unlike the previous journey, which was straining both physically and mentally, this one will be more held back and less active. If a checkpoint can't be reached, or a region can't be passed for the given day, it will be moved to the next one. It is entirely possible for the whole adventure to be postponed as well. It will take a lot of time, so, keep this in your mind as a final warning.
Upon reaching a suitable checkpoint at the border between The Formidine Rift and Kepler's Crest, the Nanachi will head to The Bubble in the direction to the nearest possible station with tritium in order to fill itself with as much as possible fuel, after which it will head back to the checkpoint and continue on.
I will use this topic for updates and random rumblings. If anyone is brave (or crazy) enough to join this madman, any help documenting this feat such as screenshots, videos or just general stories, will be highly appreciated since I will be too busy keeping my sanity together. Also, during the journey, it is possible for the checkpoints to be changed if a better(more hard to reach) star is found, which will be noted in the checkpoint list.
