Just a little update from me:
I'm currently taking part in the
Distant Worlds Expedition. The objective is to reach an outer rim world on the other side of the galaxy. The initial fleet had over 600 players signed up, myself included. Now, numbers are reaching 1000 players signed up and on the fleet roster.
If you wanna track the journey, you can visit the
Distant Worlds Website. We also have a newsletter and I am keeping my own
logs for the journey complete with pictures that I am taking for my role in the
Photography squadron.
The trip is slated for at least 12 weeks as covering about 80k LYs in ships that can only jump 19-34 LYs takes a really long time! We're also working with several cartography groups, prospectors, and colonization projects (and the Dev team) to help make this a great community experience.
