Back in the Pleiades

Made it back in one piece a few days ago, and it already seems like forever ago that I was out in uninhabited and unexplored space. Made a tidy sum on my exploration data, and it bumped my rank up to Pioneer. I also received an invite from Professor Palin while I was out, so I decided to take advantage of his research center's outfitting station and finally got some corrosion resistant cargo racks. No more mad dashes across space watching my systems degrade to dangerous levels. Now that I am back, I am wondering what I should be doing with myself. I am feeling the pull to explore already. No idea where to go though, and my Asp needs some more jump range. Back to the engineers for more mods? Sounds about as good as anything else. Or maybe I should do a few trade runs in my Corvette. The cargo space in that thing is amazing! Unfortunately the jump range is awful, even after a visit to a few engineers. It certainly is nice to be back in the Rocinante. I don't feel nearly as safe in my Asp, and the amenities and living space aboard the Rocinante are luxurious when compared to the Dulcinea. I have thought about trading the Dulcinea up for an Anaconda and getting it fitted for long range exploration, but I have too much sentimental value in her. When I can afford to keep all three, I'll think about getting an Anaconda. In the meantime, I think it's possible to squeeze some extra range out of the Dulcinea before I go on the next adventure.
