    I'm still 5 hops from The Great Annihilator. Guess I need to step on the gas! Yesterday & today were spent far away from my HOTAS.

    882lys to go. I'm on my way now. Plotting the route as I post this. That should take a good 20 mins.

    Dennis Wronka crazy huh? Still plotting! May take over an hour for all I know. I've got a telecon anyway so guess I will let it churn.

    Max Acceleration It took me a few minutes as well to plot the last leg, but nowhere near what you are seeing now.
    Actually, I think it took considerably less than 20 minutes.

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.
