    Ian Norton use the power play view to plot route..don't use the realistic map view...power play view worked for me..takes less time to plot in power play view..

    Ian Norton Try multiplying your maximum jump range with a full tank by 11 and then plotting a route slightly shorter than that. Worked for me from just over 1000 ly out to 200, then I had to do single jumps until I was 3 jumps from Sag A*

    I plotted a 997 LY jump to sag a..:)..

    nikhil ranjit I tried your tip of using PP view but no luck at all. If I'd left it for more than 15 minutes it might have finally found a route but I wanted to get to Sag A* some time this year. :-)

    arrived...

    Well done, now you need to plot at 200 ly route to start with, and get shorter as you get closer. Another couple of hours should do it.

    My PC has no guts.. I tried a 50ly plot and it took 20 mins

    Its not the PC... its the choice of distance.

If I average 30 jumps an hour for the rest of the way back to the Bubble, I reckon it's going to take me another 15 hours of flight time to make it back to cash in my explorer data. Oh my...

I didn't make it far today. Only 200 ly.

I didn't make it far today. Only 200 ly. As I had planned I visited all the class O stars in NGC 6357. In the third of these systems I came across the first black hole. I ended up spending most of 2.5h visiting those systems. In total I have found 5 black holes and a neutron star. And an ELW in a system between the ones I targeted. So while I didn't make much progress towards Sagittarius A*, I did make a bit of progress towards Elite Explorer.

The various hints and rumours about the Formadine Rift have been playing on my mind.

The various hints and rumours about the Formadine Rift have been playing on my mind. I'm strongly tempted to take my anaconda out for a research mission. I still have a 2nd account so it would make more sense to take that one instead of my main one but that account has virtually no money so maybe someone could drop me a few creds of cargo. So.. this is me suggesting we run a parallel exploration trip with some lightly armed surface capable ships. Who is in?
