This is a project that has always interested me. I tried doing this when I first started EVE and failed miserably.

@CCP Spitfire and @CCP Zymurgist hey, thanks for dropping by! Maybe you could contact the Jovian Ambassador for me to arrange a meeting where we can discuss an authorised photo shoot through Jove space for purposes of public relations? I think it's been 8 or so years since they let anyone in. Maybe they'd be open to it again by now?

@Pyx Jasta that's pretty scary, thanks for the heads up. Big smile

You know, I've been thinking about the fact that my security status is currently -9.27... While that will certainly make for an interesting time travelling through highsec, it would be nice to have a sec status that means I can avoid people or CONCORD shooting at me while I'm looking at some kind of landmark.

So I'm putting out a request....

If anyone would like to have me join their fleet when I'm passing through their area and have me tag along while they're doing a bit of battleship ratting, that would be awesome. You might need to lend me a fitted battleship though, 'cause my covert ops ship just won't cut it...

I know that's a big ask, but in exchange you'll get a mention in this thread and on my blog. A bit of public appreciation for you. Big smile

Oh, and of course you'd get your battleship back when I'm ready to move on again! I don't want to be known as some kind of battleship thief... (And no, this isn't a pirate scam. I'm serious about everything I'm doing right now.)

From one explorer to another, just wanted to encourage you as well. It's a lonely, long journey, but so far worth the effort.

Fly safe!

I've been pondering the same request, wondering if something like that could be worked out.

@Katia Sae from one explorer to another - thanks! Big smile

And yeh, it would be absolutely awesome if something Jovian could be worked out. We'll see...

Good luck on your travels Black Claw, I'll be following along and watching your blog.

Do you plan on making it a point to visit the sites of note from the eve novels such as the burning Ishukone HQ in Malkalan or player created sights like the capsuleer graveyard in Molea?

@englin thanks for your support Big smile

I'll be making it part of my mission to visit everything of interest in this galaxy. Comments like your own, telling me about landmarks that I should visit, are invaluable for me as I venture around the galaxy, so thank you!

Enjoy your trip, be sure to pay a visit to the very rare shattered planets on your journey! I did this trip a while back in one sitting and it was great fun. Covert cloaks are your friend in 0.0 for sure ♥

What do you mean, in one sitting?

And how do I look out for shattered planets? Are they 'landmarks' or do you have to search for them?

I've changed the way I present the information and 'photos'. What do you think of it?
