Wow, love the one with the Conda landed like it's just waiting for the sun to drop below the horizon... Just needs a BBQ and cold beer :)

These pics give me the itch to explore... maybe I'll take the long way out to Colonia ;)

Love the pictures. I would love to do that but don't think I am cut out for loneliness of deep space for too long.

You don't have to go terribly far to find nice sights, just a few thousand lightyears out of the bubble and the general galactic view changes quite a bit.

With an upgraded asp for instance you can cover a kly in just under 25 minutes easily.

For instance a trip I often recommend to start off with is just go around to the California nebula.
It's pretty much exactly 1000 ly from the bubble and the large nebula can make for spectacular views.
