Expedition Background:

Spoiler



Codenamed 'Distant Suns' the expedition was recorded in a



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 and a fleet of over 1,300 brave souls retraced those steps and traveled all the way to Beagle Point, over 65K LY away. Four months later, they succeeded, and the Distant Worlds Expedition became the largest and furthest fleet Expedition in the history of mankind.



Now, not but two months after their journey’s end, a lone Commander seeks unite Xbox One Players under one flag.



Codenamed “ Lost Stars ”, this new expedition tasks participants to travel even farther beyond the stars. Approximately 1,400 LY further. Starting at the very tip of the Orion Nebula’s Two Mass star Cluster, then continuing along the original path taken by both the Distant Suns and Distant Worlds Expeditions, while exploring as many of the planets and stars we come across.



The Distant Worlds Expedition is open to all XBox Pilots who have the endurance and time to commit to this deep space journey.​



The will have three main goals:

1.) To first travel to the tip of the Orion Nebula 2Mass star cluster, where we will begin out journey and at the same time scan as many of the 2MASS star systems as possible

2.) To travel to the outer rim of the galaxy while exploring multiple key astronomical sites along the way and ending with the Planetary Landing at Beagle Point for the first time on Xbox One (Thanks to the June 3rd launch of Horizons on Xbox One) and the subsequent exploration of the surrounding systems.

3.) To travel the 65,000 LY distance back. 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 .

UPDATE! MUST READ:

Just a little update on DWE: After a brief chat with RIT and the leaders of the exploration division of the EC (Thanks forr the advice) and a VERY long talk with my IRL friend who is helping me organize this I have decided to delay the expedition for a month. In part due to the escalation of events in the game it is my belief that within the year we may be facing an encounter of unprecedented proportions and when it does happen, humanity may need all the hands it can get. Another reason for this is because of a need to better organize the event in general. If you were planning to go on the expedition or know someone who is, then please help get the word out The Original Lost stars post will be updated within the week.

The start date for Lost Stars HAS CHANGED TO AUGUST 12th



Due to the need for more organization and a lack of preperation on my part I have officially decided to delay it by ONE MONTH. So now the official start date is august 12th. If you cannot make it now because of this, that is perfectly fine and I understand.

ALSO I am looking for volunteers to help me organize it! IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO VOLUNTEER SEND ME A PRIVATE MESSAGE . The positions are as follows:







-Basecamp Activities coordinator:







-Fuel Rat:







-Rock Rats





(Rock rats are people that look for jumponium material deposits)







-Fleet coordinators:







-And someone that can help me contact various other Elite dangerous organizations







-Maybe even some forum moderators

Important to note:

It is possible for a 25 LY ranged ship to cross the Abyss at the Roncevaux Crossing, and travel through the Solitude region towards the Ceeckia sector, but to reach Beagle Point itself, and its neighboring systems, you will most likely need a ship capable of at least a 34 LY standard jump . Ships with less range will need to carry sufficient Jumponium to make it to Beagle Point. Jumponium will be included in the Horizons DLC.

THE PRE-EXPEDITION WAYPOINTS:

Spoiler Waypoint 0 : Alpha Centauri to the Orion Nebula *KEY EVENT – THE PRE-EXPEDITION*



Before following in Distant World’s tracks by beginning the 85,000 LY journey to Beagle point, a “Pre-Expedition” will be help to explore the Orion Nebula, and the 2MASS star cluster, around our base camp at the NSV 2123 star system. This is being help to not only extend upon Distant World’s original mission plan, but to also give the Commanders that have neither the time or the effort to put into the main expedition.

The following maps were created during the





The Route Maps :



STAGE 1 MAP : Leaving the Orion Spur















Waypoint 1 : Pallaeni to the Fine Ring Sector (Shapley 1)

*KEY EVENT - THE DEPARTURE*





Leaving Pallaeni we cross the Frontier to the Shapley 1 region. Shapley 1 has no landable planets so we would look for airless worlds close to the Wolf-Rayet system and capture some great vistas with the gas cloud in the backdrop.

Distance to next waypoint : 1,300 LYs







Waypoint 14 - The Dryao Chrea Stellar Remnant



Here we arrive at another colorful planetary nebula, but this one is illuminated by the light of a hundred billion star systems in all directions! The primary is a Black Hole that is at the heart of the blue glowing ejecta nebula. The sheer luminosity of the gas cloud gives all the worlds in this strange system a perpetual twilight of blue and purple.

Distance to next waypoint : 4,000 LYs













STAGE 4 MAP : Traversing The Aphelion Bleak Lands















Waypoint 18 - The Greeroi Veil



After an arduous journey across the uncharted Perseus Stem, we reach Greeroi Veil. A small nebula that can be tricky to reach due to it being high above the galactic plane. The view from the Veil as you look out across the galactic core is one not to miss. Ships with less than 30 LY range will struggle to reach this base camp, and only ships with 34 LYs or more will be able to actually enter the nebula itself. Our base camp sits on its outskirts. The Greeroi Veil marks the final nebula along our route. After this we begin the long trek across the Aphelion Bleak Lands.





Base Camp Designation : "Camp Amundsen"

Approx. distance traveled : 48,500 LYs

Distance to next waypoint : 4,900 LYs







Waypoint 19 - Rendezvous Point



Rendezvous Point has some airless worlds - giving us a chance to explore this famous system in some detail. As some of you may be aware, this system made the GalNet News in March 3301 when the first recorded deep space meeting occurred there, 43,000 LYs from Sol. A brief recording of the event was made at the time :

A Distant Rendezvous. Leaving Rendezvous Point we cross the Cygnus Arm and head into the Scutum-Centaurus Arm.

Approx. distance traveled : 53,400 LYs

Distance to next waypoint : 4,200 LYs







Waypoint 20 - Oupailks Furnace



We're now deep in the Bleak Lands. Stretching across 20,000 LYs of the Aphelion regions, the Bleak Lands are an enormous expanse of sectors that contain very little in the form of nebulae and star clusters. It is a conundrum that has baffled astronomers since the early days of deep space exploration as to why this part of the galaxy is in stark contrast to the beauty and content we enjoy throughout the Orion Spur region. Here we make base camp in 'The Pit' - A 1.12G High Metal Content World orbiting its parent star at a mere 8 LS away. Surface temperature on the daylight side of this world can reach up to 1,534K. This is an inhospitable place in a desolate region and it is from here that we begin one of the longest treks between waypoints; 8,700 LYs across the Scutum-Centaurus Arm.

STAGE 5 MAP : Beyond the Abyss















Waypoint 21 - The Roncevaux Crossing

*KEY EVENT - PREPARING FOR THE ABYSS, AND BEYOND*



Before heading out across the Abyss, we gather at its southern edge and stock up on Jumponium fuel as this will be essential the closer to our final goal we travel. When crossing the Abyss, we skirt around the Chiea Pocket badlands and begin the final leg of the outbound journey - crossing the inhospitable Solitude Void and edge our way to the distant Ceeckia star systems.





Base Camp Designation : "Shackleton Plateau"





Star System : QAUTHEIA BA-A E0

Approx. distance traveled : 66,300 LYs

Distance to next waypoint : 5,200 LYs







Waypoint 22 : The Sublustris Beacon





Situated on the far edge of the 'southeastern' part of the Abyss, this system acts as a 61,000 LY distance marker and a navigational waypoint for starships heading out to the galactic rim from the Roncevaux Crossing. It is almost exactly 10,000 LYs to Beagle Point from this beacon star system. This is our penultimate base camp gathering before we set off across the vast Solitude Void... a lonely journey out on the galactic fringe - through ever sparser star systems, beyond which awaits our final goal.



Base Camp Designation : "Desolation Ridge"

Surface Gravity : 1.20





Approx. distance traveled : 71,500 LYs

Distance to next waypoint : 10,000 LYs







Waypoint 23 : Beagle Point

*KEY EVENT - JOURNEYS END*





Finally we arrive at Beagle Point. A star system on the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy offering all who reach it a real sense of remoteness as you look back at the very distant core regions, 35,000 light years away, and realize home is yet another 30,000 light years beyond that! There are not many places in the galaxy that can give an explorer that sense of scale. Outwards looking you see nothing but the vast inky blackness of the intergalactic void. Here at Beagle Point, at least one airless world and several airless moons await our exploration. A 1,200 LY excursion to explore The Moons of Podar can also be planned at this point. Podar is west and south of Beagle Point and sits on the northern edge of the Abyss. It is a ringed Earth-Like World that has 3 airless moons orbiting it - ripe for exploration.

EDIT: Was just looking at the OP and realized it was kinda confusing for some people to clarify:

In the itinerary, the date that is posted directly next to the system name, is the date that you should ARRIVE there and also the day we will LEAVE FOR THE NEXT WAYPOINT.



So for those wanting to come along from Alpha Centauri to the Orion Nebula, we LAUNCH August 12TH and will ARRIVE AT NSV2123 on the 13TH

and then if you are also wanting to come to beagle point from the orion nebula, then WE LEAVE FOR PALLAENI ON THE 13TH, and will ARRIVE ON THE 15TH



Then we will OFFICIALLY LAUNCH FOR BEAGLE POINT ON THE 15TH FROM PALLAENI. After that, the itinerary should be pretty explanatory.



Just remember that if you want to group up with he main group at each waypoint, then you must arrive on the date specifically listed next to the star system. Sorry ffor any confusion this may have caused.





I also HIGHLY recommend this ASP Explorer build if you're a beginner such as myself, it will give you enough power to get to beagle point and back,but if you can afford more, then do it.
