Good morning CMDRs,
This short expedition is drawing to a close, but not without a few examples of the beauty of this part of the Galaxy:
There were only a handful of places where you could find all the biological samples in one place on this planet - and they happened to be in valleys such as this one!
Which provided for some interesting collections
Moving on swiftly
I don't know what it is about volcanic activity that attracts such attention...
We tried to get as close as possible to measure the temperature at the edge of this fully active feature - and it was well over 1000k
We wondered how the Dolphin's excellent heat dispersion profile could handle it - after all - scooping at a type B star barely hits 65%... But systems were overwhelmed and we have some systems damage as a result.
A lesson to leave well alone.
As we prepare to head home, I just needed to get a few shots in of the beautiful and mystifying Horsehead Nebula that is, for now, beyond our reach.
See you in the bubble soon, CMDRs! o7
