Colonia Run

Date: 22 Jul 3310 Time: 5:04 Location: Szameit Ring, Peneng Wa

It doesn't feel too long since I returned to the bubble. Rode out to Sag A* then back via Colonia in the Mooncrusher Type 9. The Explorers Itch settled in and the 30LY range on the T9 just doesn't suffice so I've been tinkering with a DBX. Engineering is almost done, only needing to strip down the life support and tweak the thrusters.

I have thrown a waypoint out into the black, Nuekuae FW-D B15-0, it's 211 jumps away and puts me in Colonia Range. I'm looking to make good progress but the DBX's tank is half the size I'm used to so I'm expecting plenty of time sitting at stars to refuel.

Blackbox should relay the journey back but I've never been good at making sure it happens so I'll be keeping a rough copy onboard to manually upload if I need to. It honestly feels daunting. Everyone recommends the Neutron Highway but I'm more old-school. You see more that way.
