Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 10I decided to set my sights on Messier 78 today. As I left the Orion Nebula Tourist Centre, I decided to pass through the Running Man Nebula on my way to Messier 78. Some truly astounding views from all of the different nebula in the area. See my pictures...
Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 9I left the Spirograph Nebula 4 days ago. Nothing much of note in the systems I passed through. I have decided to switch from Economical Route Planning to Fastest Route Planning for sanity's sake. I want to get the exploration credits, but if I'm going...
Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 8BD-12 1172 in the heart of the Spirograph Nebula is absolutely breathtaking! I have spent several days in the system just bouncing from one planet to the next soaking in everything the system has to offer. Other than the science megaship and a fleet carrier...
Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 7After bouncing around the Witch Head Nebula for a few days, I have decided it is time for forge onward. I am setting my sights on BD-12 1172 in the Spirograph Nebula, which is a stop on the Canonn Challenge. I'm still in the Inner Orion Spur, but I hope...
Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 6Finally made it to Hanna Enterprise in Shenve. With a couple of jumps to go, I came across a shipwreck on a planet's surface. There were two occupied escape pods. I had the storage space in my SRV for them, but I don't have any storage available in Serenity....
Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 5Not much of an update tonight. I've been slowly making my way toward Shenve from 116 Tauri. I'm taking the economical route so I can visit the most systems. Nothing too exciting recently. Mostly Type 1 gas giants and icy bodies. Settled for the night...
Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 4Finished up scanning 116 Tauri tonight. Not much else to see. I did find some awesome soil on 116 Tauri D 8 A. The turned up dirt in my SRV tracks change from green to blue and back to green again as I was driving around. It was pretty neat. I took a...
Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 3Made it to 116 Tauri, first system to check off of Canonn Challenge. I love super close binaries and this happens to be a super close trinary! Sure is a long haul to the fourth star to find anything truly interesting. 116 Tauri D 7 is a Gas...
Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 2Started this session by reviewing the Canonn Challenge waypoints. I was already on my way to Shenve when I first heard about the Challenge. Since I'm already underway, I have decided to take a different route, but I still plan on eventually hitting all...
Journey Across the Galaxy - Entry 1Starting today, January 24, 3307, I (Michael Fuller) have finished engineering Serenity (my Diamondback Explorer) to the point that I feel comfortable beginning my journey to visit all 42 of the galactic regions. Using the Canonn Challenge for waypoints,...
