Distant Worlds - A journey beyond the Abyss

On December 16th 3300, the day Elite Dangerous was officially released, a long ranged Asp Explorer, the DSS Beagle, left the Pallaeni star system to begin the first recorded galactic crossing.

Codenamed 'Distant Suns' the expedition was recorded in a 12-series video log. The mission was to travel to the far side of the galaxy via the galactic core, mapping and documenting all major discoveries made along the way.

Some 5 weeks later, on January 18th 3301, DSS Beagle reached a star system on the edge of the far galactic rim, 65,279 LYs from Sol. The system (CEECKIA ZQ-L C24-0) subsequently became known as 'Beagle Point'. It marked the end of the line of the Distant Suns expedition.

One year later, in January 3302, the DSS Beagle is to be recommissioned and given a new mission.

Codenamed 'Distant Worlds', this new expedition will task all its participants to travel a route that will roughly follow the original path taken by the Beagle last year, this time with the added task of surveying and exploring as many worlds as possible at key locations along the way.

"Tracing one warm line through a space so wide and savage..." - Stan Rogers (Northwest Passage)

"Eight hundred starships attempting to travel through 65,000 light-years of void... What could possibly go wrong?" - CMDR Kamzel (coordinator of the expedition)

The expedition took off on Thursday the 14th of January, at 20:00 GMT.

Status Update

The Fleet has lost a few wingmen, but is alive and well, as we begun a few hours ago Stage 2 of our expedition. More photos comings, amazing sights, and the thrill of travelling thousands of light-years from any form of comfort and civilization...
