Hi TJ
Nah, my hacked Sidewinder would make that jump no problem, tiny ship + Class 8 Hyper drive He He! Mind you, scrolling the map might be a bit of a problem though.

Hold down Shift as you scroll. That speeds things up and you should reach these galaxies by the time Elite 4 is released

That is pretty amazing however, we should really be focusing on the problems in OUR planet first, then worry about venturing into other galaxies

Given that this is is Frontier forum, I'd expect a lot of flames any time soon.
Turquoise, mountain-slicing ones, from plasma accelerators.
