Captain's log star date November 29, 3306 11:20Final preparation's are being made for liftoff from Prua Dryoae IX-G b15-2 planet 1 A. During the night we run the daily maintenance cycle, we also processed the data from yesterdays voyage, and we will be moving on. As this is such a long mission we will be normal side missions, and only taking critical missions should they arise.
With 1000ly and 25 jumps behind us, we still have 7430 LY and 141 jumps ahead, just to the first waypoint along this leg. if we can make 29 jumps per day we should arrive late Thursday evening.
14:30
Progress has gone smoothly so far today. we managed to get a large quantity of stellar data moving through the sector. we also found a route that has taken us through several neutron stars which has made up a lot of time. Also we will be able to compile a much more neutron start database now as well. The onlt issue with using the stars for extended jump is extra wear on the FSD. Currently we are in Prua Dryoae BB-L d9-49 orbiting planet 2 a real nice high value water world. Here we will be running some maintenance before continuing.
15:00
A quick fix here and there and we are moving on. so far we have covered almost 1kLY today.
16:30
We are now, in the Prua Dryou BA-J b56-3 System. Our next jump will take us out of the inner Orion spur, and into the outer Orion spur. A major accomplishment for the ship and entire crew as we have never been out of the inner spur. This milestone will also leave us with 4877LY to go.
16:40
We have completed the jump to Prua Dryou HF-C d14-57 in the outer Orion spur and will be holding here for a bit to process all the inner spur data before moving on.
19:40
Its been a long but productive day, After crossing the border into the outer Orion spur we continued on, lots of new stela data and codex logs from the new sector. We still have a long way to go, but we are on schedule for this week so far. We are orbiting the main star in Blaa Eoq DO-F b3-1 now. This evening we will log the data gathered in this sector so far, then let the crew get some rest. Tomorrow we shall Start the day with maintenance, then we shall push on. To remain on schedule we need 27 jumps tomorrow, but we are going to attempt 35. This will leave us a little leway towards the end if needed.
