To the Void and beyond

After a few months break from Elite, I'm back! Today, I culminated my gun for hire gig, when I was awarded my dangerous in Combat rank, it was my goal. I promised my wife that I would give up that way of life, retire my Clipper, and focus on my hobby / new gig explorer. As luck would have it, an old friend of mine new of a local merchant who specializes in exploration equipment. So off I went to the dealer with my trust Clipper. As luck would have it, I was able to customize my Conda and buy it for 15% off. I was not able to go with the top of the line equipment, as I wanted to ensure I had 2X my insurance costs available.
We stopped approximately 1,000 LY from Sol and have a first discovery on two water-worlds and 1 gas giant. The family and I parked next to one of the newly discovered water worlds. The only issue is that our current lander does not work, so we ordered a new one. It does not arrive for several months, so for now we are stuck on the ship.
The family loves the new ship, it has everything a RV in the sky would need!
 
Today was pretty good, we had lots of new discoveries, however, we were not able to reach our 1,000LY objective due to numerous new discoveries. We are currently 1875LY from SOL. Here are some of todays photos.
A new Water World is found!
