Furthest point West

Does anyone know the furthest point reached on the western edge of the Galaxy?

I bet Chiggy got close on his ELW hunt.

Last summer I got to Phraa Groa MG-F C14-0 at -40,544 LY. Don't know if anyone's been further but with modded FSDs and jumponium it should be possible to get quite a bit further now.

I made it to over -38,000. My furthest ELW according to my records was BYAA FLEE US-U D2-3 at -37,790

*edit* I was staying where "D" system densities were 30-50 systems /subsector though (on the edge but easily traveled) I'm sure just to see how far you could go, another couple thousand LY would be possible

I'm at -38,550. Not sure how much further west my Cobra can go, if Allitnil cracked -40k in his Cobra trip then hopefully I will but I'm unlikely to break any records set by people with Asps and Anacondas, even unengineered, jumponium-free ones since my Mk III is both those things as well.

Mine was with a stripped down Conda, different trip.

I'll not waste weeks trying to find a way in the Cobra then

Cheers for the replies, I'm in a Asp with 36-39Ly jump heading out that way. I need to find some Polonium and Yttrium on the way to give me about 6 Premium jumps, hopefully. I have plenty of Basic, and about 10 Standard. Currently at -10000,100,0.

I found a reliable polonium source out west last trip out around 20kly. Ill post it tonight.
