Almost Crashed, At Least I found Space Pumpkins

I very recently, very happily joined Canonn Research Group, and as part of a patrol I landed on a small planet in the systrem PLAE BRIAE NR-W to scan a biological site.As it happens often when you've done something a couple of thousand times, I became too confident and I didn't pay attention when landing. This means that when I realised it was a 2G planet I was already going down like a rock, and no boost or no attempt to climb again could avoid me crashing onto the surface.
I touched down with the same grace my dad collapsed on the sofa after a shift at the factory.
Luckily I had remembered to activate my shields beforehand, so I just damaged my hull instead of blowing to pieces and losing 200k light years worth of data in the process.
Still, I have about 400k light years to go in my journey, and flying with a hull at 70% when you're not even halfway is not great.
Anyway, at least I found Space Pumpkins.
