crashed in to Byeia Thaa GD-Z c27-30 1 a, a great way to end off the first leg of travel back to the bubble. hull is at 53 % so no more reckless driving for me. in better news i have done over 1/3 of the trip. so many dwarf stars on this route, i'm starting to get sick of them. anyway time to fix up the Epica II and have some fun driving around this rock bucket of a moon

At Rohini, docked at a station, it feels so weird after hours in the void of space. I was right, turning in the data on this last exploration, only added a 20% to my progress in explorer rank. It did make me like 40 million credits so i'm not complaining. But this far from the bubble credits are meaningless, but my new goal is to get back before the new year tolls. Its Only 155 jumps until the bubble if commit to hauling ass to get there. To 53 Nu Serpentis to be exact. that even with jet cone boost, but i'm not sure how many Neutron Stars I'll encounter this far from the galactic core. I should have made the time to get the level 5 distance FSD engineer job, it would have made this so much easier. 155 jumps, in 5 days. which is about 31 jumps a day, but i'm aiming for keeping up the pace and doing 50 a day, because 53 Nu Serpentis is the edge of the bubble and not the core. i'm staying away from the Pleiades, i've seen the vid feeds and since i have never been good at combat, so Thargoids would kill me. lucky those murdering flowers have stuck to Pleiades, so the rest of the bubble is safe, for now. first sign of them attack the whole bubble and its back to Colonia for me. Unless they attack Colonia, in which case the bubble has more resources to fight off such an attack. with whats been going down though, i do fear that Thargoids are going to wipe us off the galactic map. while they are not invincible, i believe that they have not shown us all they have. imagine a Thargoid as big as a mega ship. that what they could have. the feeling of doom is everywhere, and i'm not brave enough to help change that.
