Mintaka!

I went on another, albeit shorter, expedition these days, this time with my shiny new ship Silver Dances On The Waves:

Instead of aiming to reach a particular place, I wandered around looking for systems with blue and white stars (because I like those the most):

For a long time, I have been wanting to visit the Pleiades Nebula. So eventually, I returned to my old Adder, had some maintenance done, refitted it for exploration, gave it fresh paint, and headed off into the void.
