It is with great pleasure I bring you news that I am currently on my second expedition into the unknown. The quest for places humanity may one day expand to,ingrained deep into my heart. Why did he not tell us of this sooner, I hear you ask? Well, I was sat in a greasy spoon cafeteria in the ass end of Macleod Market in my home system of 38 Lyncis, just got back from running machinery to Diso... Where i managed to cause a traffic jam because I was being a forgetful idiot. (Funny story). when the urge to just go out and see more. Experience more, took a hold of me.

So here I sit in the Praea Sector and boy am I glad I decided to leave the high life behind. Found a whole bunch of unclaimed space teeming with main sequence stars. Could this be the place I find my first Earth-Like? Every jump more tense than the next.

My plan for the foreseeable future is to trawl what is perceived to be the Galactic Habitable Zone hoping to find ETL's within a reasonable proximity of each other that maybe one day someone with enough money and power may send a colonization effort. Who knows what could happen? And boy wouldn't I like to be the one credited with finding humanity's next expansion project :D

As usual I will keep you all updated weekly. Fly safe :)

Be sure to take lots and lots of interesting pictures! And if you fly into a black hole...well...uhm...that'd be bad.

...yeah...try not to do that.

Two Earth Likes in a binary orbit and a terraformable either side to boot. Today is my lucky day. About to head home to sell data then straight back out to map this entire area :D

Pictures will follow once I have secured the data.
