The designation of this class 3 w-space system looks awfully familiar. That happens a lot, though, strings of numbers jumping out at me and making me think I've seen them before. After all, maybe I have, it was just when I was ordering a takeaway and not jumping through a ...

Today's scanning finds me a new ladar signature and a new wormhole. I resolve them both, but jump through only one. There must be more than a single planet and its moons in this class 3 w-space system, so I bookmark the wormhole, launch scanning probes, and warp away to ...

I scan, Fin calculates fuel requirements. I didn't scan for our first static wormhole of the day, so am surprised to see so many new anomalies. Six more have cropped up overnight. I resolve the new wormhole quickly enough and, rather than jumping through immediately, I bookmark its location and ...

Didn't I just refuel this tower? Okay, maybe it was a while back, but levels are dropping enough to catch my attention. There is enough fuel for a couple of weeks of continued operation, but it's best to think about getting more now rather than with only a few days ...

I'm alone in this class 4 w-space system, I may as well scan and look in our neighbouring C3 for activity. Or home, for a new gravimetric site first. The rocks are bookmarked, adding a new pin to my system map, and I continue scanning to find our home system's ...

Glorious leader Fin is in our connecting class 3 w-space system. 'Occupied, no one home, low-sec.' Situation normal, then. We form a fleet and I am guided to the wormhole leading out to low-sec, able to find the static wormhole in our home system as Fin copied the bookmark to ...

Today's wormhole is nicely conspicuous against a background of bookmarked signatures. It's not quite a fully mapped system any more, although noting the single new anomaly corrects that, and more signatures will appear soon enough, but for a few days I should have an easier time plucking the wormhole from ...

I start scanning the home system and realise it is a good day to take a proper look around. I am by myself, the afternoon is relatively early, and plenty of sites are missing. I could do with removing the defunct bookmarks to get a clearer picture of the system ...

A Noctis isn't much use when salvaging other people's wrecks. The salvager ship's tractor beams won't be able to lock on to wrecks owned by others, negating the main bonuses of improved range and speed of the beams. A more traditional destroyer is more suitable, being agile and quick, zipping ...

A conspicuous wormhole is a good wormhole. At least, it is in the home system, either to go out exploring or to warn of potential invasion. Today, as is the more common case, I am heading through our static wormhole to explore our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. A punch ...
