I thought it would be nice to have a compilation of the different ships and builds people are going to take on this long Journey.
I spent the last week working on my ship including a lot of engineering, gathering and trading some materials (also materials for synthesizing heatsinks, which are manufactured!), trying things like bashing against a station wall at different speeds to test shields and armour and things like that.
I ended up with a Krait Phantom. I didn't trade in much for more range and kept my 6A thrusters, but went with a Class 3A shield and downgraded powerplant and power distributor. Since I like convenience and a solid ship more than the best jump range ever achieved I also packed a few extras and kept a range of 57ly.
Apart from an AFMU I also packed:
Repair limpets, mining laser, abrasion blaster and pulse wave scanner to be able to repair myself and others in need and to support our miners with finding good rocks and chipping off ore.
The idea was, to be able to join as many different occupations as possible since we'll be away for quite some time.
Here's my build: https://s.orbis.zone/1u57
Feel free to share how you prepared for the journey and add your ship's build if you like. It might also be a nice archive for exploration/deep space mining ship builds depending on how many people contribute.
