Fall Into The (Hawking's) Gap

06 Jul 2020Dante Cortez
I've been very lax about keeping logs. Too busy flying? Nah. Just forgetful, or lazy, or both.

Anyway, I made it to Eta Carina, saw the Guardian ruins, picked up some souvenirs... Made my way to a FC to sell some data - ridiculous to have to pay 25% tariff on my data, but I guess that's a convenience fee for not having to head back into the Bubble.

While I was there, I picked up some tips on exploration. I've set a course for a less-traveled area in Hawking's Gap. When I get there, I'll pick a new direction. So far, I've been pretty much straight-lining about 50ly below the galactic plane. The region I plan to end up in should have lots of systems, and not much traffic, so hopefully, there will be some good pickings.

Found a jackpot system the other day. Three stars. Star A had a terraformable water world. Star B had one as well, and a terraformable HMC world, and three additional water worlds. That's right, five, count 'em five water worlds, including two terraformable, and one additional terraformable planet. That system should buy me a couple of lobster dinners when I turn in the data.

(No, I won't tell you where it was. My secret until it's registered to my name. But you can help me name the system. Deciding between Splashdown and Raindrop. Or maybe Oceania.)
