Heart Nebula exploration mission diary - Day 8 part 2
01 Feb 2021Jarsil
I did it.After 8 days, around 7,5Kly I arrived at the Black Hole in the middle of the Heart Nebula.
The nebula itself is an astonishing view
The black hole is, well, for lack of better words, a little disappointing.
Truth is, I've seen the biggest of them all, Sagittarius A*. Every other black hole in the galaxy seems really small compared to that beast.
But I also remember Maia B* as a big black thing. This one was quite... small, that's it. Extremely powerful, but small. So small the last jump practically landed on the outskirt of the hole, less than 6Mm from the center.
And now? I'm not coming home right now, that's for sure. I want to go to the four Formidine Rift expedition stations Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta. Then, I already set my eyes on a MS Star way below the galactic plane.
My return trip will surely be at least 1k Ly under the plane. I just want to see some good unexplored space.
