The Cursed Expedition Part 2

September 21st, 3308After a couple days of jumping I have made it almost halfway to Athaip WR-H d11-8524 where the ill fated expedition started. I made several stops to rest, sleep, and collecting the raw materials I would need for reaching certain waypoints that were located in very low star density areas. I decided to land at Blae Eaec UO-X D2-2837 B7A for the night. Nothing remarkable about the moon itself but all the planets around the B star were terraformable including a water world so I scanned them before I landed. As I was making dinner I got to thinking about the circumstances surrounding the disappearance of the expedition. This “curse” could have just been space madness considering the locations of the waypoints and the amount of time needed to travel to them in one go. Most explorers most likely would not consider visiting all these places in one go due to the time investment required and I don’t blame them. There are folks out there who are crazy enough to do such a thing to begin with and I guess I can count myself as one of them now since I’m looking into what happened not to mention I’m wanting to pick up where they left off. I’m hoping the thargoids won’t be an issue on my journey considering the reports that have been coming in over the past month. Once this trip is over I’m maxing out the engineering on my current ships and finding a spot far from the bubble to call home although I might be lucky to get any engineering done before having to move my ships away from the bubble if the thargoids decide to turn the place into a mess.
