Day 7
2,010LY from Cel
Sorry I skipped yesterday. There was pretty much nothing to write about. Today...Oh hell today...
Sometimes my Nav Computer is a pain the flank. I mean seriously!? You route me through five non-sequence stars in a row!? I need FUEL to FLY. I can't fuel scoop from non-main sequence stars! I don't feel like taking the risk and hoping the damned fuel rats can get to me this far out. I mean...they prolly could, but without fuel I lose life support and they might not be able to get to me in time.
Look long story short my Nav Computer is being stupid. I had to manually go in and force the thing to route me though a star I could fuel from. Three times! THREE! Who designed this thing without some form of auto function that would do that for me? I mean come on, it wouldn't be that hard. Or would it? I dunno, I'm a pilot and an explorer not a computer scientist.
Ok. Other than my NaviComp being a piece of garbage I did find some cool stuff today. Also went through a couple of storage cabinets and guess what I found! I thought I forgot it but it turns out Mom packed my Holoimager away, so I can take pictures and videos now to help document my trip! I've decided to upload them to my datapad and start attaching them to my journal entries. I'm gonna take an image of the galactic core every morning after I warm up the ship, and every evening before I shut down. It should make a really cool time-lapse when they're all put together.
It also goes without saying I'll snap anything worthwhile too. Like this:
Beautiful isn't it. That is what I've decided to call Rega. Yes I named it. You get to do that when you're the first to discover something. And yes, I came across my first few undiscovered systems today. Kinda mind boggling to realize you're the first pony to ever see something.
And that wasn't the only one I found today. I found two other water worlds in the first system I jumped into this morning. One of which is terraformable. Not only that but there was another terraformable planet in the system as well. So yeah. Score. That was a pretty good day.
