Please meet at Irandan A 1 - Sir Chonk A Lot is our fleet carrier for the expedition, and this is where the mass jump will depart. Please bring a Sidewinder (unengineered), SRV, a highly engineered small ship for shennigans, and an explorer ship capable of at least 50 ly, preferably more, and FSD injections. Mining opportunities are available during the journey if you like to shoot rocks.

Constructed in 3303 by Flaming Star Logistics Operations, this asteroid base provides all standard star port services except a shipyard.

Beta Site is an asteroid base and resource extraction operation located in the rocky rings of a blue Class III gas giant on the edge of the Jellyfish nebula. It is controlled by the independent, democratic Beta Site Operations faction and currently has a minor presence from a theocratic group that styles itself "Followers of the Star." Base services include commodities trading, mission and passenger boards, a Universal Cartographics franchise, and a crew lounge. The docking facilities include basic refueling, repairing and restocking services, but not a shipyard or outfitting hangars -- at least yet anyways, according to Councillor Pate.

NGC 2174 (also known as Monkey Head Nebula) is an H II emission nebula located in the constellation Orion and is associated with the open star cluster NGC 2175. It is about 6,400 light-years away from Earth. The nebula may have formed through hierarchical collapse of the greater interstellar medium.

The Crab Pulsar at the heart of the Crab Nebula was one of the first pulsars that mankind ever discovered, back in the 20th century, by Jocelyn Bell Burnell (who had also discovered the LGM-1 pulsar a year earlier). Though her contribution was recognised by her peers, it wasn't this discovery that earned her the Nobel Prize.

Although the nebula that surrounds it is small it is one of the most beautiful and intriguing, so it is no surprise that people would want to set up home here. The Crab Operations Syndicate have made this system their home and it boasts stunning views of the nebula as well as a safe place to rest. Though make sure you ask for somewhere to stay nicely, as the station crew are said to be somewhat short tempered.

A relatively small and lesser-known nebula situated on the edge of the Perseus Arm, some distance farther south than the Monkey Head nebula. It serves as a good waypoint for those looking to cross into the Outer Arm Vacuus, as it's as far south as the Crab Nebula, but it's near the galactic plane.

This is an open cluster of class B stars. As such it is nothing especially remarkable except that it sits within the sparsely populated rift within the Outer Arm Vacuus, thus making them really stand out against the sparsely populated backdrop. The cluster requires an engineered frameshift drive or the use of FSD boosts to reach.

This is the most distant system ever reached, and reachable, southward along the meridian line, located only 101 LY from the zero line. This system is only reachable with modded ships and a heavy use of Premium Boosts.

These are the Jumponium needs for this system, assuming a grade 5 FSD mod with a ship reaching at least 48ly. This includes the return trip as well to get yourself out :

This relatively dense cluster Brown Dwarf stars is a distinctive patch of stars in an otherwise barren region of the Outer Arm Vacuus.

The Groerld Association is a group of young luminous stars in the otherwise sparsely populated Perseus Fade, near the shores of the Outer Arm. Its members are between one and two billion years old and still relatively close together. Current theory is that the Association may be the core of a once bigger star cluster, whose low mass stars segregated and went into the near spiral arm's stellar stream. The higher mass stars remain in their tight configuration, because there doesn't seem to be enough gravitational and tidal forces around to pull them apart. It is speculated that the Association will thus continue to exist for considerably long time.

The Association was mapped and surveyed during the Children of Raxxla's Monoceros Mission in June 3303.

Sitting at 16,899.75 LY south of Sol and deep in the Outer Arm Vacuus, this is thought to be the most southern system from Sol currently reachable. A few systems are found further south, but these are apparently well beyond reach of current technology (even when combining engineered FSD's, Jumponium and neutron star boosted jumps). The system is named in honour of Roald Amundsen, one of old Earth's great Antarctic explorers.

Located on the southern edge of the Outer Arm Vacuus, not far from of Exteriores Australis, this cluster is a good opportunity for explorers to restock on jumponium or just taking a break from navigating through the void on their way further south. It consists mainly of older M-dwarfs and is approx. 300 lys high and 100 Lys wide, making it one of the larger star associations in the region. With a small 'upper' and a big 'lower' patch of stars constituting the bulk of it, its form roughly resembles that of the islands of New Zealand on Earth.

This system located in the Outer Arm Vacuus on the road to Sepositus Beacon has an interesting close ring proximity feature. The class IV gas giant A 1 has metal rings with an outer radius of 467,693 km with a high rotational speed.

The rocky world A 1 a has a close ring proximity and is slightly offset from the rings plane. This moon provides an exceptional view of these rings. It is possible to experience some disorientation while SRV riding on the surface by the mere presence of these imposing fast moving rings in the field of view.

When the A-type star passes in backlight, it adds a particularly powerful light that produces a halo around the gas giant. A mist can appears at the surface during an eclipse or at night.

A small nebula situated 15,000 LYs from Sol in the Perseus Fade. There are a few black holes in its vicinity and water worlds orbiting gas giants, a high metal planet with water world moon, and an abundance of water giants associated with the nebula.

The Seagull Nebula (IC 2177), is a region of nebulosity that lies along the border between the constellations Monoceros and Canis Major. It is a roughly circular H II region centered on the star BD-10 1848 (HD 53367). This nebula was discovered by Welsh amateur astronomer Isaac Roberts and was described by him as 'pretty bright, extremely large, irregularly round, very diffuse.'The Seagull Nebula (IC 2177), is a region of nebulosity that lies along the border between the constellations Monoceros and Canis Major.

The Anaconda's Graveyard is the final resting place of the Distant Stars Expedition of 3303.

The crater in which the Graveyard is situated was given the placeholder named "Anaconda's Graveyard" by Erimus Kamzel for the Distant Stars Expedition, as it was to mark the final waypoint and resting place for the expeditionary fleet that first surveyed the Cancri Cluster.

Approximately 1 year later, Frontier Developments added a tourist beacon to the system (screenshot below) as well as the actual POI itself, complete with derelict Anaconda's within the crater Erimus had scouted for the Distant Stars expedition.

Home at last. You're free to return to anywhere in the bubble at your leisure, but the official end of the expedition will be at San when Sir Chonk arrives. Sir Chonk will be in system for at least a week to allow folks to transfer their expedition ships.
