I'm home, safe, and sitting on a K162. I've kind of been chased out of the class 5 w-space system connecting to our home, but only after almost destroying one of their strategic cruisers in transit. The death of the Noctis salvager was just fate, and I had to shoot ...

I was thinking about having a night off from space and, as I find myself here anyway, my heart may not be in it as a result. But if there's one lesson I've learnt during my mercurial moods it's that I'm keen on exploration. There's no direct scanning that needs ...

I get back to the home w-space system as my glorious leader arrives. I'm not staying long, though, simply swapping to a stealth bomber and returning to our neighbouring class 3 system, where I noticed a lone pod on my directional scanner. I update Fin to the situation and warp ...

I'm back in space and looking for something to shoot. I was in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system six weeks ago and the tower I have listed remains in the same place, although no one is home. A blanket scan confirms no obvious ships are in the system and ...

New sites continue to appear in the home system faster than I can despawn them. This is untenable! Maybe some rocks have gone since yesterday, but in their place is, um, oh, a wormhole. Okay, there are no new sites today and instead there are two wormholes for my exploration ...

It's getting untidy at home. Some gas has gone but more has cropped up in the meantime, creating a mess that I cannot eradicate quickly enough. I activate the new sites and ignore them for now, jumping to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. Two towers show occupation but there's ...

I have time for a quick poke around, see what's happening. Sleepers are breeding in the home system, adding some infrequent rocks and a bountiful gas site that I activate in the hopes they will go away again soon. I turn my attention to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system, ...

Here is clear, what's there like? I'm off to find out, jumping through our static wormhole to a class 3 w-space system. My directional scanner only reaches out far enough to show me the ninth planet in the system, which has two moons, a customs office, and little more of ...

My expectation for today is to indulge in a little light ratting, nothing more, but I'm willing to be offered a different opportunity. Maybe some sightseeing first, as our neighbouring class 3 w-space system sports a wonderful example of a magnetar phenomenon. The w-space anomalies are all quite impressive, but ...

I'm going to take a poke around w-space, once I've determined which way is 'up' in the home system. I seem to be pointing in a rather curious orientation and I never can find our star quickly, but I get my bearings and launch probes to see the Sleepers starting ...
