Let's go and find us some aliens!

*Begin Recording*I've taken the decision to look for aliens in the Cassiopeia, Camelopardalis, and Perseus constellations,specifically focusing on the region highlighted in this Blind Pew transmission .(Formidine Rift Mystery, and this Galnet News Article will help too. Let's not forget this! as well. ) To do this I am planning to purchase an Anaconda and equip it with fighter bays, weapons, a grade 5 FSD upgrade, together with sensor equipment to scan systems and interstellar bodies. I'm hoping for a jump range of 45 ly+
The purpose of this mission is to find sentient alien life. If possible, initiate first contact on a peaceful basis. Nonetheless, with the Pleiades sector seeing a strong Federation military presence, and open hostilities with The Empire, the chances of war with an alien species, especially one that may hold a grudge I fear is great. It is one of the reasons my Anaconda will not be a pure exploration ship. That, and the fact that some Commanders are agents of chaos and will attack the aliens 'just because'.
Nonetheless, if there is a chance peace and cooperation can be had with a non-human species, then it is a chance I must take. I hope to purchase the Anaconda later today and equip it tomorrow, ready to embark in the next few days.
