Return Mission Time: 8 hours, 39 minutes, 22 seconds.
We made the trip to Colonia and back in 2 days time. While the trip out there involved a couple of sight seeing detours (one of which was Black Treasure), once we arrived at Jaques Station in Colonia, I honestly can't see what all the gossip is about. It's like no other system in the bubble, with the exception that Jaques Station is the only station to have a Frame Shift Drive. Rumor has it that Jaques Station was lost for a while and turned up in Colonia. It has been parked there since.
Over all return time between leaving Colonia to Gagarin Gate, and leaving Gagarin Gate back to Jameson Memorial was 13 hours, 9 minutes. This makes for one extensive trip in an Orca jumping 40lys at a time. While fuel wasn't an issue, the boredom of the return home was, at times almost falling asleep at the conn.
I have included a few photos from our trip, but as for doing this in the future that is something that I am not willing to do. I can now say, "Been there, seen that, got the T-Shirt".
The return home left the ship integrity at 38%, which isn't bad for a 22,000LY one way trip.
As for me, I am going to take a well deserved shower, shave, and get a good hot meal.
