Day 1:Departed from Daibak Station, set course for Scorpii Sector DL-Y d159. All systems are functioning normally. The crew is eager to begin this new adventure and make new discoveries.
Day 5:
Encountered unexpected turbulence in the black hole region, all crew members are safe and the ship has sustained minimal damage.
Day 8:
Was interdicted by a harmless pirate that thought I was transporting valuables and quickly realize I was not. Was just going to let the now sadden pirate high wake away and collect the data from his high wake but instead decided to dust off the piloting skills and practice with fixed pulse lasers. It didn't end very well for said pirate as his ship was breaking apart once his shields were down. He jettisoned into his escape pod and landed into my cargo racks.
Day 10:
Discovered a new planet with potential for scientific exploration and resource collection. The team is eager to begin surveying and cataloging the new findings. Was pulled from Supercruise by a much fairing foe and didn't want to risk losing all the scan data that we have collected over the last few days. The pirate demanded 1 ton of cargo, so I jettisoned one of the two escape pods that I had collected in the course of our travels and settled for high wake data collection.
Day 15:
Reached Scorpii Sector DL-Y d159, the target destination. Discovered an Earth Like world which was 1.5537 times our Earth mass, with a radius of 6,924km and a 1.32G times our Earth's gravity. I don't think that there are any lifeforms that habit this planet as our scanners are picking up a surface temperature of 267 Kelvin.
