The popped Iteron pilot must have come from somewhere. I tried following him in to one of the class 3 w-space systems connected from this one, but only saw a few other pilots milling around. I loitered at a wormhole leading in to another C3 system from here, but the ...

The constellation has been revealed. Exploration has found three more class 3 w-space systems beyond our normal neighbour, with a couple of systems occupied, creating plenty of opportunity for mayhem. I have bookmarks for all the known wormholes, which are plenty, and anomalies in the systems. Now it is time ...

I have a wormhole to find. I pop and pod a Catalyst destroyer salvaging an anomaly before seeing a newly arrived Drake warp out of one of the local towers, and I have no idea where he went. I make the one wormhole-jump home to swap in to my Buzzard ...

I have a new scanning routine. I know that I really need to switch to combat scanning probes when hunting, negating the need to warp to a mining site, and potentially getting spotted should I get decloaked on a rock or cloud, but I much prefer the simplicity of core ...

I wonder if we've had visitors. As the home system is not stabilising I can't be the first pilot to be here today. But maybe glorious leader Fin was busy earlier harvesting gas. There is no sign of anyone currently in the system, so I launch probes and scan, looking ...

I can't be lucky two days in a row, but let's see what's in our w-space constellation today anyway. Or I would, if our home system weren't getting swamped with Sleepers. This is supposed to be space, vast and empty, but we have so many ladar sites we almost have ...

There's no one here but me, I think I'll hunt in the class 3 w-space system next door. Of course, that means finding the home system's static wormhole first, but that's a formality. Jumping in to the C3 sees a tower and a Tengu strategic cruiser on my directional scanner, ...

Leaving the boring Orca behind finds some activity. The industrial command ship turned out to be simply warping between towers, but in this adjacent class 3 w-space system my directional scanner reports both ships and drones present, and drones are only launched in the field. There are also two towers ...

There are twelve scanning probes in our home system, which is not only enough for anyone but too many for just one pilot. We have at least a couple of visitors. In an attempt to keep a low profile I swap the Buzzard covert operations boat I sleep in for ...

Fin has returned, and collapsed the wormhole behind her. She's a genius. This gives us a new static connection to find, with a new class 3 w-space system beyond it to explore. Resolving the wormhole is straightforward, and I warp both myself and Fin to it to continue today's adventure. ...
