Discovering my first ELW
26 Apr 2017AVON NOVA
One week out on route to Jaques. 
Earlier in the week we jumped in to the Prua Phoe UF-S c19-3 system. I began scanning the system and found all the planets were register as undiscovered. The Universal Cartography pay commanders for data on undiscovered planets and a premium for worlds that could be mined or terraformed or the rarest of all, earth-like-worlds that could be colonised by humanity.
We hit the jackpot, the advanced surface scanner confirmed the body to be an undiscovered Earth-like World. I looked on in wonder and imagined what it would be like on the surface. What life might exist down on the surface. Future generations of humans will one day call this planet home and they will remember it was first discovered by Commander Avon Nova.
As I orbited the planet Kiara came up to take a look. She hadn't spoken much so far and mainly confined herself to the passenger cabin. I asked her how she had made so much money she could afford to take such expensive tourist trips. She told me she didn't like being questioned and I didn't press it any further. I have hardly seen her since then all week, on the rare occasions she comes out of her cabin she takes the copilot seat which in an Asp is directly underneath mine so even then she is out of sight.
With the constant jumping, scooping and scanning I am now hearing Verity and the honk of the scanner in my sleep. "FSD charging.......5.....4.....3.....2.....1......engage"!
