WP12 - Arrival at Beagle Point.
11 May 2019Mearmortal
Well I arrived on the 1st May late in the evening, and it was a relief to be honest. I'd been flying for a number of hours covering the 13,000LY distance from the Previous way point.I can safely say that this although my first real trip, has been a real experience, out in the middle of nowhere, no means to Dock at a station, no safety net.
Discipline has to be paramount when your doing stuff like this, you don't want to take another CMDR out of there journey to rescue you.
I did however get it wrong once, and forgot to re-fuel before leaving a system, got distracted and left myself without any means to reach another system. So I did get rescued by a Fuel RAT.
I've made so many contacts in the last few months since this started I can't believe even now, this expedition stuff really does bring people together, from all time zones all around the world.
I've been at beagle now for the last week, I scooter-ed across to Oevasy SG-Y d0 (Semotus Beacon) to moon B 9 f (Salomé's Reach) to see what was there, not much, but some nice valley's and wicked colours
I also pop'd across to VonRictofen's Rescue, and read the Beacon there, if you can locate the information, it's a good read. I didn't post it as it's a spoiler for most.
While I've been out here, I've surprised myself and signed up to another expedition to travel clockwise around the rim of the galaxy back to Sol, so i've set myself up for another 144LY journey and alowing 9 months for completion. So that would put me out there anything from 7 to 9 months withour docking, I must be mad.
