Hutton Orbital Sucks
I have, I hope, started a new tradition, from Hutton orbital to Beagle point and back to Hutton Orbital with no docking anywhere else. At least I hope it's going to be a tradition, I mean it doesn't matter how old they are, there had to be a first time for every old tradition right?
Oh yes, but you have to use the free Conda with its E rated FSD or it doesn't count!

Stellar idea, count me in. Now I gotta go back there for the Annie, damn.
Muahaha, made my day!
It a spiritual thing with Hutton.
You don't get to know someone if you haven't walked a mile in his moccasins- and you never really played ED, if you haven't been to Hutton.
Take it like a poodle....;-)

Check his post history. Goes pack to the way back times in the long long ago. OP is just trolling or attention seeking.
Yeah well wait till you don’t read the description properly and actually fly there in an anaconda and can’t land, I know a player who did that.
The free Anaconda is unlocked after you win a game of "Mornington Crescent" with the station staff - they like new people to play with.
Exactly. Wish people would stop saying “free” Anaconda. It’s a myth and the new guys always get confused.
It costs 100 credits and you must be docked near Cubicle 3.
Hutton is well worth the 90 minute trip. What people forgot to say, other than the free anaconda, is that It is the testing station for space legs and walking around.
The Faulcon DeLacy show room and MegaGin museum are worth a visit just for the custom flight suits and decals you receive alone. There is Wonder's Pilots emporium Spa, Hutton Widows Net support group's office, the Thargoid and Fer-de-Lance Bar, a local branch of McThargoids and lets not forget the Make-shift MODs hospital. There was a night club, but i think that was closed down, its far too close to Cubical 3. The proximity was setting the fire alarms off so it had to be moved. I think it is being moved to the spare landing. There is a radio office there too but usually Cecil wont let you in unless you can drink more Gin than is locally recommended.
By far the best thing you can get from Hutton is a Mug, so what you need to do, is dock, doesn't matter which bay, Head to the Thargoid and Fer-de-lance, ask Dorris at the bar about frameshift drives, she will tell you to speak to a guy around back. He gives you a bit of a fetch quest, he wants scrap, about 800 T of it but its worth it in the end because you get your very own hutton mug for the cockpit of your ship. Only issue is that most ships don't come with cup holders so... it will probably get smashed and float around in pieces within the first 20 seconds of flight. Still worth it for the screenshots.

Funny, I always thought that the Thargoid and Fer-de-Lance Bar was in the Barnard's Star system (or possibly Bernard's Star, which isn't on the Galaxy map).
When I went to Hutton, I was in an Anaconda and they stole it from me, in order to give it to some over-enthusiastic noob. I had to fly back in just my vest and pants.
Never forget that every free Anaconda is a stolen Anaconda, nicked from some poor stooge. DON'T ACCEPT YOUR FREE ANACONDA.

I've seen people here and on reddit genuinely fall for it
I never fell for any of the forum tales... But I did fall for the mission from Sol that looked really lucrative.
The really annoying thing is that at the time, the mission only gave you two hours, and I didn't realise it was a 90 minute journey. So, as I was doing lots of missions, I completed a few others first, then headed out. I realised half-way to Hutton that I wouldn't even make it there in time (after the shock of realising how far it was).I still went. I then went again just to show it that I could...

Look up the acronym TANSTAAFL and enshrine the concept up there with Never Fly Without The Rebuy.
