CMDR PAUSANIAS - THE SHIP OF THE MIND EXPEDITION - DAY 141
28 Dec 2020Pausanias
BLACK HOLE & NICE CLASS IV GAS GIANTHi Cmdrs,
I started the day with 205 jumps to go to the target system, I think I finished with about 140 or so to go.
On the first arrival at The Carl Sagan I handed in just 3,500,000 credits and then set The Carrier up for the next jump on the prescribed route whilst I changed to the Jumpaconda to check out another Black Hole.
Upon arriving it was once again already found but I did get this worthwhile image of the distortion of the Galaxy again, only a bit more dramatic this time. The ball in the middle isn’t a planet, it’s the result of the Black Hole distorting the Galaxy in the background.
I then returned to the Carrier and handed in 5,500,000 credits for that small diversion.
I sent The Carrier off again and then used my Asp to continue exploring finding this Class 4 Gas Giant. It wasn’t worth anything as such but whenever I find something a bit different I like to investigate and this looked interesting, I hope you agree?
The Carrier was lagging behind time wise against my jumping so I added a few extra jumps into the journey which didn’t yield anything but made up for the timing difference.
I met with The Carl Sagan and handed in 13,000,000 credits this time.
I’m going to stay here tonight and plan more of the journey tomorrow. See you then Commanders.
