This validates my interest for the galactic center, quick calculation shows that I should be able to reach it, go to Colonia and back to the Bubble on a full cargo of Tritium...


Have you ever wondered how life would have turned out on planet Earth if the solar radiation was X times stronger? You know, so harsh, that it would blow off the atmosphere before it can even form. Pufff... gone. Nice bold lump of supper radiated/heated rock with 0 atmosphere or water.
Lets pack 5 stars into a space/system of 1 and expect a miracle. Naah... make that 10 stars, unstable orbits, massive radiation... ahh... much better. Let the life begin.

Kasumi GotoI was just stating things from my observations, I'm not actually involved in any Titan assaults directly, never have shot at one (or at least not done anything that directly contributed to its destruction).


umm... right... then where did all that expert advice originated from? OMG! It was all just a LARP!

No wonder my ships are burned to cinder and every hired NPC is dead.
I think you should call their wives and now fatherless children and explain.

Rrr... I shall curse you! Let the gravity be harsh on you!

There are ways to know things without needing to be involved in the fighting. Like having been present throughout the two years(ish) of the war narrative and paying attention to its various mechanisms.

Thargoids also only send the drones to do their fighting which are not involved in the reproduction process, they're just the end result of it. Unless I get something wrong about what you're saying.

Also, did you really have to take a picture of your face in a helmet on the night side of a planet, with an active flashlight pointed directly at the camera? Because that's what will get you a gravity curse.

Interesting map.

I was looking over it this last weekend and found the hidden memes hilarious!


I'm thinking about turning the Mandalay into a Passenger ship for Long-range Exploration Missions, should be interesting, other than that, having been there, I know why the Galactic center isn't explored so much:

Stars are very sparse and many times out of a ship jump range, plus the router is uncharted so it doesn't work, you have to do the Nav by selecting the systems yourself...

That's where the Fleet Carriers comes on their own...

So, you are like a consultant who has never seen the action? Ouch...
Also, it seemed to be out of reach for you to figure out that I was talking about hypothetical human NPC warriors fighting the thargoids.
Amazing.

Your bizarre rant about my absolutely wonderfully artistic avatar image made zero sense. Are you going straight from thargoid related consulting to deep space photography? LOL, I mean, why not. You sounded almost convincing in one while having zero experience. Why not try another, hopefully les lethal to poor expendable fighting folk.

BTW, I have no idea who is on that picture or where it was taken and by whom. I found it on my ships computer.

Wait! Was it taken by you? Is it out of focus and hazy because you could not get the camera close enough to your eye?
I only ask because you seem to know the details of the seen so well.
Wait... there are more images. Ohh... it really was you... OMG!
Kids, OUT!

Actually, I've seen the action myself a fair amount in the early months before shifting to evacuation work, thanks very much.

... and I could actually still get a camera close to my eye, so if it wasn't you who took that picture, nor me (and I took no such picture of anybody, because I'd have told them to shut off that light), you should really ask yourself who did.

In my opinion, long range exploration/sightseeing missions are a waste of time and not worth the payout. Sightseeing does not pay until you return to the start location. Sure, 50 mil for a trip to SAG-A or Colonia sounds great. Stack in 10 missions and earn 500 mil. But for sightseeing you have to make it all the way back to the starting point to get paid. You'd earn way more than that surveying planets and exo along the way, and much more per hour spent doing one way repetitive Robigo runs.

You're probably right, I've done some in the past, it's tedious...

Vanity is the valid point for exploration....
