Haulin' Woes

The "Meredith Vickers" really isn't a long haul ship, but what she can do is move a lot of stuff. The trip out to Maia was certainly onerous but what I've found out here is worse: no where has the components in sufficient quantities to supply Obsidian Orbital (and Prof Palin's) needs.Even more annoying are the little side missions the Prof is tempting people with. Alien Biological material: where can I get that easily in a Cutter...
On the positive side, I've made contact with the crew of the Indra, which orbits the monstrosity which is home to Ceres Tarn Shipyard. I even managed to land there in 4+g in Meredith without a scratch. Last time that'll happen I guess!
I've paid to have the "Lyta Alexander" transported over. Maybe a smaller ship will be more useful. Plus it would be good to see how my new toy handles out here at the sharp end.
