I started on the PlayStation and played for several months. I took quite many screenshots, but I never thought of sharing them here. Here are some of the best ones.

A rather powerful looking neutron star I got a supercharge for my FSD from.

Quiet here, huh. I took a break from grinding pirate massacres to transfer some exploration pics from the PS5. Here's one from the time I accidentally became an explorer. I'd been playing ED for just long enough to graduate from Sidewinder to Python, via Cobra III. I saw a passenger mission in Liu Huang for 20 million credits, and only 1,400 ly out to some triple black hole in Hawkings Gap, wherever that was. Furthest I'd been out, but not too far.

Except that it was actually 14,000 ly -- I'd misread. Just 700 jumps in my upgraded but unengineered Python. Each way. It was brutal, but 20 mil is 20 mil. We got there, stopped to admire then view, and some NPC scanned me. My passenger flipped out then ejected.

I stopped to smell the roses on the way back, and took a single screenshot.

My home station had plenty of sightseer missions, and although that marathon 1400+ hop trip to Hawking's Gap and back dampened my desire to get out into the black, I figured there were less pleasant ways of grinding my way to an Anaconda than dragging a couple or three tourists out now and then. I bought an Orca, stuffed it with cabins and did some entry level engineering. It wasn't particularly lucrative, and I got tired of the NPC snark after I ignored their assertions that trips would be ruined unless I got them 3 tons of washing machines. I stripped out the cabins bar one luxury, kitted it out for exploration, and waited for the right passenger. It wasn't long until I picked up a 35 mil trip out to Colonia. The Rich B*tch Express was on her way.

A very lucrative trip, in all. It was spoiled only slightly by me getting worried about losing my data after I picked up my first undiscovered earth-like. Long story short, I speared her nose-on straight into one of the pads on the Dove Enigma, when the autodock refused to cut in on the final few hundred metres of my "stealthy" approach. Too late, I recalled that I'd swapped the docking computer out for a class 1 AFMU, so that I could repair the big AFMU I was also carrying. No passenger payout for me, but the exploration data covered purchase and outfitting of that Anaconda I wanted.

(I spent a long time getting all three of those solar reflections on the canopy at the same time, but it's only now that I wonder what they're reflecting off to hit the canopy.)

I bought the Anaconda, engineered it as best I could, but it was... disappointing. As I read around and looked at other people's builds, I concluded that the problems were: 1) not focusing on building a dedicated explorer, general purpose stuff had to come second; and 2) not submitting fully to the engineering grind. I couldn't afford to make more big, expensive mistakes, so I decided to build a dedicated Dolphin. I unlocked engineers, I collected sensor fragments, I got hyperdicted. I dumped luxuries like docking computers, I fitted a luxury cabin and a Guardian FSD booster. She made 60 LY a jump, dry, a joy to fly.

A rich recluse offered me 30 mil to take him almost to Sag A*, my plans were to go just a little further.

It was a great trip. I knew that I'd made some first discoveries in Hawking's Gap, so tracked over that way until I was seeing undiscovered systems, then up through Norma Expanse, and Arcadian Stream. I smelled the roses, and the Notable Stellar Phenomena. Having not yet successfully delivered a long-range tourist I was wary of Sag A*, but even if I got scanned, I couldn't come all this way and not see it. It was worth it.

The journey back was profitable. I discovered two earth-likes, and one system with a lifetime supply of terraformables. I delivered my tourist home without trouble, and netted enough to buy and outfit a second Anaconda. That gave me an idea...
