out researching xenobiology. Rumours are that certain planets are thargoid havens. Out to find out if anything can help. Lots of thargoid probes so far.

The last few days, the cries, the despair. The adrenaline, the death. Rescuing station dwellers in mercy runs, injured and evacuees. Has taken a toll. It's time to see if the xeniobiology has the answers to this thargoid threat. They have to have come from somewhere, want something. where.

Success. Back from a 6000 LY trip, my longest one yet, through the Orion Spur Shallows. Found some friendly fleet carriers out there to bank cartography on the way out so if a total disaster happened it wouldn't be too bad.

Now to prepare for a new run.

First scouting mission for this new commander. 35 million in credits and some first feet on planet and newly discovered system. Happy for now. Time to upgrade and head back out. Who knew repair units needed supplies!
