Another Border Crossed

I'm still slowing heading West.Arbitrary West obviously.
I've stopped quite a few days exploring the edges of the locked zone in the Formorian Frontier.
Unfortunately, my investigation didn't reveal any new information. The area is still unaccessible, and nothing in its surroundings is worthy of note.
The only remarkable find was a strip, just on the northern edge of the locked zone , where planets seemed to have unusual numbers of geological signals. The average was above 30 per body, where the average elsewhere is something from 5 to 15.
I've even found three bodies with 49 signals each, which is just 1 short of the galactic record.
I have no reason to believe, however, that this is related to the locked zone, probably just a weird coincidence.
I've now crossed the border to the Hieronymus Delta, heading to the third - and second to last - Point of Interest of my journey.
I've landed on a random planet for a change of scenery and to scan some biological signal. And once again my clumsiness made me land with the grace of a pregnant hyppo, almost crashing on this 1.6G little rock.
Luckily I had remembered to activate my shields before attempting the landing, but I lost another 3% of my hull, now at 68%.
And all this for super common Shard Crystals.
Note to self: dude, take it easy.
