Four days ? or has it been five? must have made 200 or so jumps at least maybe. Im now nearly 2000ly from the alliance core worlds in high up in the galactic plane. Today i spent most of my time mining, i figured if you come out this far (not THAT far) you might as well get the good stuff. Painite all the way! i didn't drag out 320t of limpets to come back with osmium or even platinum no siree! Besides those weren't my orders... "Go out, get a feel for the black amd come back with some tasty data for the alliance cartography boys"Only my second short trip out, but i have definitely come back wiser. My flight assist off skills took a massive leap forward from twisting and turning the anaconda about in the prime undiscovered metallic rings i was tasked with finding. Next time ill fit out my ship with a slightly bigger jump range so i can reach a few more of those tempting systems 20ly (ish) simply didnt cut it.
Still... 320t of painite is still a big haul. But these rings are much the same as the good ones near home, just quieter and more placid. A gentle distraction from the grinding of scanners and the whining of drive cores.
