Oops... just crashed 10KLY from Beagle Point

Good to hear!
I was going to suggest hitting the 'select' button rather than the 'plot route' button. Plot route plots assuming a full fuel tank, while selecting a planet and jumping uses your current fuel load - thus possibly allowing you to jump further.

Nice work CMDR ! I thought my trip to Sagittarius A* would be enough for me, but all of you crazy explorers are inspiring me to head back in the black, and fly to Beagle Point as well. I really enjoy reading exploration logs like this one.

I had to "rest" in the BP system for a whole month after landing on BP2. After a more than four month trip to get out there, I just could not face another "Frame Shift Drive Charging..." voice message.
I spent the time collecting a full load of minerals for Jumponium (in the days when one rock yielded one mineral, not the three pieces it does today...we had it tough in my time).
I am only just getting back towards settled space after leaving BP2 on 1 July 2016. I am some 19.6 kylies from Colonia as of tonight. It took the spur of Mercury 7 to get me back to where I am now...and I am joining the expedition late!
Still, it was an experience...and I really don't want to come home yet. My current plan is to dock at Jacques' for a bit of a clean up and, if possible, fix the Hull and PP by just 10% (Hull to 91%, PP to 93% - my role-play world says the damage I have inflicted can only be partially fixed whilst outside of the Bubble). If a partial repair is not possible (it is over 14 months since I was last docked anywhere) then I shall leave her in a state of disrepair and head back out. I am not selling any data at Colonia as I can only sell this in my "Home" Station. I am then taking the Lakon to the EL LAID sector before finally returning to the Bubble in Autumn. Unless I die out here, of course. It is Dangerous, after all.
Hull: 83%
PP: 85%
The rest: 100%
Flying happily
