So the first system we need to explore and survey is Barnards star and due to no planetary bodies only a grav survey is required so I'll get the two Light Seeker survey craft into the system.
A second Hercules freight ship and a Barroso colony ship are requested at the commercial shipyards.
On the 12th of February the first unexplored jump point in the Barnards star system is discovered.
On the 17th of March scout ship New Horizon 001 suffers a jump drive maintenance failure this could be serious since it is currently my only jump ship so a second one is ordered just in case.
On the 23rd of March two more jump points are discovered and another on the 7th of May. On the 21st of May the survey of Barnards star is completed. All survey ships will now probe the second unexplored jump point in Sol.
The second jump point is transited on the 26th of June 2034 and New Horizon 001 discovers Alpha Centauri the system has two stars Alpha Centauri A which is the largest and has a spectral class of G2-V this star is orbited by two gas giants and one terrestrial planet the surface temperature on this planet is 503.7 degrees so not colony material.
Alpha Centauri B which orbits A has a large asteroid field is orbited by three gas giants and one terrestrial planet although again not colony material. Each of these bodies have several moons in orbit.
Based on these findings the geo survey ships will also survey this system.
We run out of mineable Gallicite on Earth on the 20th of July 2034 this is used in the construction of engines so a supply will need to be found we do however have 20,690 in the stockpile so it's not too serious a problem. We also have 99,983 on our mining colony on Ganymede but this has an access level of 0.1 which means it's hard to get too.
Our survey team on Ganymede are still hard at work and on the 12th of November 2034 100,000 tons of Sorium are discovered with access level of 0.7. Sorium is used in jump drives and jump gates and is also refined for fuel so this is a good find this also means the survey level of the team and all it's members has increased it is no 141 not sure what the max is though.
It is now 10 years since Kate Wallace came to power and the human race decided to explore systems beyond Sol. So far there have been no signs of life and things have been progressing nicely. The people of Earth wonder what the next ten years will bring.
On the 30th of May construction of a new naval shipyard completes on Earth.
The geological survey of Ganymede completes on the 25th of August and an extra 100,000 tons of Mercassium are discovered this mineral helps with research facilities, life support systems and tractor beams.
The team is moved to carry out a geological survey on Triton and within days of the start of the survey 100,000 tons of Mercassium are discovered.
After an extensive survey of Alpha Centauri on the 1st of December 2035 only a single jump point is discovered other than the one leading to Sol.

On the 9th of March 2036 New Horizon 001 transits the 3rd unexplored jump point in Sol and enters the Tau Ceti system. On entering the system seven wrecks are discovered 3 at 8000 tons, 1 at 15,800 tons, 2 at 16,000 tons and 1 at 24,000 tons.
Are these the remnants of a battle long passed or something more recent? Due to this been right on our doorstep care needs to be taken.
Well that's all for now hope you are enjoying my write up if there is anything you want me to add please comment and let me know.
