Hutton orbital

Hutton Orbital is perhaps the most notorious space station in all of Elite Dangerous. Located in Alpha Centauri—just down the road from our own solar system—this modest little outpost is almost 7 million light seconds from the system's hyperspace jump arrival point. This means that, even travelling in supercruise, it can take over an hour of continuous flying to reach it. Some players discover this the hard way. They accept a mission in a nearby system to ferry cargo to Hutton Orbital, blissfully unaware of the sheer distance they have to cover to make the delivery. They point their ship towards the station and wonder why, after twenty minutes, or even longer, they don't seem to be getting any closer to their destination. This happened to me when I was a rookie pilot, yet here I am, years later, flying there purely by choice. The long haul to Hutton Orbital has become something of a rite of passage for Elite players—and one developer Frontier has acknowledged with the Hutton Mug, a rare commodity that can only be bought at the station. So last night I decided to make the gruelling journey to this backwater outpost myself—partly for the novelty of having endured it, but mostly for the mug. I like mugs. It's not a particularly difficult challenge. You just point your ship at the station, engage the throttle, and occasionally adjust your heading—and not even that often. But it is deeply boring; a test of patience rather than skill. Driving in one direction for long periods of time is actually fun to me—and in Elite I don't even have to worry about traffic or changing gears. That's not to say the trip is completely danger free.

Supported by the Alpha Centauri Freedom Party, Eden has an important place in the history of space exploration. In , it was the location that provided the first detection of liquid water on any planet outside the Solar System now Sol. As the human race expanded out into the Milky Way, this small planet was the first destination for long range probes. Eden itself turned out to be anything but A planet with high volcanism, huge metal deposits and atmospheric water, it was incapable of sustaining human life and had little commercial value other than the raw metals mined from the surface. Early settlers established an un-manned orbital stop point around the planet and over the centuries, it attracted wayfarers, retired pirates and Federal fugitives who developed Hutton Orbital into the hub that it is today.

Delivered over vast distances by those in search of a profit, the Hutton Mug, is only sold to Commanders who make the painfully long journey to Hutton Orbital. Made from the salvaged frame shift drive plates of ships that ran out of fuel before reaching the station, this is purely a vanity item commemorating the epic journey. Its value lies in its rarity and latent frame shift energies keeping your drink that little bit warmer for the journey. Elite Dangerous Wiki Explore.

They are the same for all ships, affected only by the local gravity well. This happened to me when I was a rookie pilot, yet here I am, years later, flying there purely by choice. I went to Hutton Orbital before FC where a thing and didn't regret it, though. Is this really a good use of the only life I'll ever have?

It was sometime in But all I've really done here is manage to not fall asleep for an hour—which I suppose is a kind of achievement when there's nothing to look at except a starry void. During the long evenings, drinking gin, his idle hands started fashioning left over drive plates into mugs to sell at the station shop. And my ship occasionally drifts now, which gives me something to do other than stare at the stars.

Using imported botanicals and water from the planet surface high in metal content , Centauri Mega Gin was distilled on the station by entrepreneurial inhabitants and a minor export run was started to populated space.

A couple of thousand light seconds feels like a lot to me when I'm running trade routes in Elite, so I'm instantly daunted by the distance. Visualizza il sito web per dispositivi mobili. Not as long as the Hutton run but there was about 30 mins of filling up the passenger cabins and then the 40 or so min cruise to Smeaton Orbital that allowed me to kick back and either enjoy the atmosphere of spaceflight or go make some dinner lol. It's not a particularly difficult challenge. Anyway, back to Hutton Orbital. Is this really a good use of the only life I'll ever have?
