Just started exploring, I think I'm hooked

I think some development time should be given to implementing an Explorers Anonymous group. We need counselling.

Hello, my name is Ulysses Wolf, and I'm an Explorer....


...and oh, lor', they're only going to introduce a Buggeh. All is lost.

Congratz aRottenKomquat, and welcome amongst the explorers ranks!

As a Pathfinder I really understand the need for exploring and the feelings behind that.

I'm actually ready to start my biggest trip.
I want to reach Sagittarius A* ( or the closest) with my Sidewinder "Ghostrider".

No shields, no autorepair module, no guns.
In open.

See you in the deep black.

I finally found a black hole! Already discovered, of course, but it's a start.

Also, I love how the background view changes as you get closer to the galactic core. I'm still nowhere near, but this arm of the galaxy looms brightly in the background and it's stunning.

At about 8kly I felt the tether break and then I could just go on and on. May you find many colorful worlds on your path!

I feel the same way partner. Even put it to poem.

I am now 5100 light-years from the bubble and have no urge to return. Despite being near two prominent nebulas, almost everything is unexplored except for the neutron stars and O-type stars. I guess everyone went to the nebulas and scanned the exotics and left everything else untouched.

Lots of unexplored A and B stars in my area, probably going to hang out here for a while and just scan everything.

Thought this was cool, a brown dwarf about 50 light-years from the Trifid Nebula.
