Need to make a decision

Location: HIP 13674Recently left Li Yong-Rui after getting access to Pack-hound missiles. Considering unlocking Prismatic Shields next but I have not decided for sure. A couple other options I am considering is retracing the steps of some of the various Expeditions. And at present I am working to collect Tritium for the planned trip to the deep black. Rough estimate; I think I may need about 8k of Tritium to make the trip out and back. I am bringing enough with me just in case I decide to head back early or have difficulty finding sources of Tritium while away from civilized space.

Mined 180t of Tritium this afternoon and also bought 752t more. Upon returning from my mining trip and acquiring the 752t of Tritium I left the command deck to do some looking around the galaxy map in Stellar Cartography. The nebulae /west/ of the bubble called " Traikeou" looks like it might be a suitable destination while doing some exploring along the way. I found that the Neutron Plotter site also has a FC route plotter as well. Random selection of a star system in that vicinity shows a need for approximately 2617t Tritium round trip. If I head out to the black; Traikeou or elsewhere, I will be playing it by ear. If I make it that far and decide to keep going, so be it. I have put out some feelers on the squadron communications network also known as Discord to see if anyone would be interested in such a trip. If any other commanders decide to make the trip with me I will need to fit a Shipyard and Universal Cartographics which will increase the fuel consumption. The trip most likely will not be until the FC interior has been remodeled and the shipyard is saying it will be Update 11 which occurs in roughly a month.
