26th February - The night before beyond drops......

Beyond lands tomorrow and I am looking forward to it, today I have been pootling around space, I popped to Maia to see obsidian orbital, the repair work seems to be progressing well.....hopefully all that progress won't be for nought as of tomorrow! I also landed at the barnacle forest in PLEIADES SECTOR SP-N B7-0 PLANET B 2 and managed to capture a Thargoid interacting with the barnacles, I was very close to the centre and nearly got sucked up in my SRV. after the thargoid went away, I managed to get myself stuck on a barnacle and having to self destruct my SRV...DOH!

I decided to come back to SOL as I wanted to see what earth looked like in VR.....wowzers!!!

I parked up in orbit around Mars and ducked into CQC, not as drunk tonight, but a good enjoyable batch of deathmatches, didn't win any but I came soooooo close tonight!, but I was grinning. Tonight I realised something.... When I was younger, playing Frontier - Elite 2 I would always get a really stiff neck during combat as my opponents would fly out of view upwards and I would try to look upwards and my neck would tense up and cause me all sorts of problem........ Now, using a VR headset I can follow the opponants upwards as they fly upwards and I don't get a tense, stiff neck....

I know its a small thing, but it makes me happy.

Travelling Stats 1

I recently (18th Feb) returned from a visit to the galactic core regions, I didn't go to Sag A* this time, just went to the right of the core, cut across a bit of the top and came back - I wanted to be back ready for the new update which is landing tomorrrow :o) Before I docked back at Cleve Hub I copied all my stats across from EDSM and I have them below showing what I found and how far I travelled:

Visiting the Barnacle forest

Took a little jaunt out to the pleiades sector to explore the barnacle forest at Pleiades Sector PN-T B3-0 on planet A5, stopped off at a couple of non human signal sources and played with the thargoids there, got scanned by them but no attack, even though I got very close to the second one. going to log back on tomorrow and see if I can see a thargoid interacting with the forest :)

Note to self #2 VR Problems 1

Trying to drink a cup of tea with a VR headset on is not dignified! Also, The top strap of the headset is giving me a centre parting!

Note to self #1

Playing CQC in VR whilst drunk is a REALLY BAD IDEA!
