Astro Galaxy - a realistic space exploration game

Hello World

I am SteveCrab and I am giving this reality a whirl.

Still full of enthusiasm and hope, not yet reduced to a bitter space hermit...

Happy to engage, open to deals or alliances or corps, but need to learn as much as possible quickly.

Cheers

Welcome to AstroGalaxy. I think you'll find this game offers a lot of varied activities to keep you busy. There isn't a lot of PvP, the game isn't really geared for it, but there are a lot of other challenges.
I'm rather new here myself, but most of the community has been exceptionally kind and helpful. I hope you experience is as positive as mine has been.

Welcome to this part of the universe. I wish you to have fun.

If you have questions, do not hesitate.

SPQNR SOS 1 blind jumped (130 degree track from SOL) - 7 jumps, 75 LY away into deep space.
I emmerge next to a unknown event - a place even God never completed.
Avoiding it I see my first target, an SOS! Prador 1 has also blind jumped safely to Q 0,2. Now Prador 2 lunges into the darkness - rejoining humanity and the rest near Alderamin and Arcturus. SOS 1 finds a ship needing fuel - good - we have some - BUT NOT THAT MUCH! They are only offering $48 solars - I may get it to them later....
I materialize back in Prador 1 to oversee its first SOS pod and see what we have...I spend a bit of AP to get there quicker and find - an OUTBREAK! They are paying $132 for medicine - not much profit here. I move on again with AP assistance - another epidemic. At $120 - I dont care. Next one is $116 - its going down! Just die, all of you. I will wait the 25 mins for Prador 1 to arrive at the next SOS pod and go and check  on Prador 2. 31 minute wait to arrive. OK, what about SOS 1? Survivors in pods - thats what we want to see....Their ship got blown up by a malfunction in the engines and they need to get back to earth. $205k for 88 m3 of cargo space - deal! 2 minutes to the next pod. $71k for 448 m3 - OK, thats $158.
3 mins to next rendez vouz - 4.4k fuel left...Prador 1 is going to run out of fuel at this rate - very unprofitable mission from those guys...390 left when we get there - dont even know where SOL is. Nail biting stuff around Vega and Chara (please dont ask me for fuel). $49 for 58 m3, 5 mins to next deal - keep at it SOS 1. Prador 1 had to convert 30 m3 of diamonds to fuel - and those were earth diamonds, not lunas! Prador 2 bought a donut and spent an AP to get to the next stop. More fuel at $43. Another AP and looks like we'll be spending earth diamonds here too. How are we going to get home? SOS 1 is OK - we got a direction when we arrived and we just head back. But the Pradors must have a less effective navigation system - this will be a bit tricky. Prador 1 gets a transport - finally. $229 per m3 home. Nothng left - no fuel, no diamonds. SPQNR SOS 1 lying on its side on the beach. Natives moving closer. Yellow fever throughout. Only one hope remains...

where are you? The Empire has fuel

SOL is 3 jumps (of 16 LY each)south of Vega

What he lacks in gaming experience he makes up for as a creative writer. Good thing I'm more of a technical writer or I would feel my job was threatened.  :))
