The Intrepid 3 make Sag A*
08 Jan 2016Jim Beaumont
We did it. Following a day of rest and minor repairs to ships, we got the Nav comps run up, rigged for Wing access and all arrived in a close by system ready to jump into Sag A*. Merc acted as lead and pushed the jump, me and Oppo following closely. Crazyhorse couldn't manage the huge distance in time, but he is still going and hoping to get here.Still, it makes for a fantastic sight. All the better to share the moment. It was great having a good comms link via the external patch. We had a good chat about the amazing shift of light around the outer edge of the black hole. We then formed up in front of Sag A* for the obligatory pic, can't say I have seen one with 3 ships in front of her before.
Once we were done Merc was off, smashing out the Ly heading back to home. He needs to feel the controls of the FDL. Oppo was taking the night off and setting out for home tomorrow. Myself, well I'll be doing lots of discovering, lots. I missed so much on the way here!
