Looks like a wretched hive of scum and villainy to me. Banter poodoo.
Just joshing
Looks like some funky hotel complex in Hong Kong!

Taking the Python (that sat in the hangar for two whole years) for a shake-down cruise:
Boom! The moment when the blastewave buffets the ship - you can just see the shield flaring, and the auto-compensating from the engines is apparent.
I'm about 1km from the blast, it barely jostles the ship, but if adds to the experience
I did get a much better shot of this moment with my mining Adder on my 'open only' account, but for some reason the images didn't get saved - I probably pressed F11 or some such in my feverish state
Yeah, like many others (feel better soon CMDR's!) I have the post-holidays lurghy
so time for an 'early' night before I cough my way into a docking bay without clearance or something!

Yeah,right.Some people will say anything to get a laugh.
I suppose it makes a change from the other parts they're often found scratching.( Pluto's not a planet??? Urania sends her regards.)
Finally able to fly my federal corvette! It took a while (a soul-crushing eternity) to outfit, but It's finally done! I can now begin assasinating people and...
Oh... Is that...?
Rebuy

Who was it?
Just took a short (~6 hour) trip out the bubble for some explo data. Came back with more than 100mcr in data. Not bad for less than 3kly.
Corvette goes bang bang
"No! No! I don't believe it!"
Synthesise ammo
This is my haz RES experience so far. Those multicannons really do chew through small calibre ammunition. I feel like I have five "Old Painless" rattling my fuselage.

Less like “Old Painless” more like five GAU-8 Avengers.
Just refitted my Krait mk II to take passenger missions in order to get some modular terminals for Marco Qwent. Learning that they're not that common...took a mission with 20 as a reward, turns out the passenger was wanted in the destination system. Went silent running at top speed, messed up the line and slammed into the letterbox entrance. Failed the mission with 42% of my hull left.
Dust myself down, patch myself up and we go again...

My (admittedly limited) passenger carrying experience is that
a) They are almost all crims trying to lie low, though they don’t ever say that.
b) The odd one that isn’t on the run from the law is a PITA wanting deviations from the itinerary, special items, etc
self-loading cargo was more trouble than it was worth, for me

I did always think your sig was connected with taking those dubious passengers that “just want to get away for a while” with their “friends”
Always gives me a laugh, seeing it!I hear Robigo mines are a good place to rack up some credits doing that. All the same, I’ll stick to exploding rocks if I want loadsamoney in a shortish space of time
Thing is, all this stuff about VOpals, Robigo runs get you money, G5 mats and rep with Sirius thingy.I did always think your sig was connected with taking those dubious passengers that “just want to get away for a while” with their “friends”

Not as much fun now, as the interdictions have dropped right off.
I really liked dropping into the tourist beacon followed by the shmack shmack of two baddies dropping in.

If you go wanted you get a decent amount of interdictions!
Moving Mountains...
Amazing seeing it all to together in one sequence.
Some of the surface boulders are the same size as the detected SOHO comet fragments that are seen almost daily.
And mostly discovered by amateur citizen scientists from publicly available images. It's good these ESA guys release their data too
