Today I had a nice day. I started by sending the A.I.001 auto miner to the mining site then, in the morning, nothing compares with a nice patrol over Tau-23. After checking all the systems of my Pytho, I scanned the communication channels and I found out there was a fight somewhere near the Kyushu jump hole. I headed that way and I found a small wing of colonial and IMG fighters under attack by an Outcast destroyer. I engaged the Storta and results were notable. It went down in less than 10 minutes. After this patrol, I guarded our miner a bit then I took out my advanced train because the miner reached maximum cargo capacity. After the miner filled my train, I decided to go to New Berlin alone since no one was available at that hour. Not even a mercenary or a freelancer. But everything went alright and I unloaded the 4987 units of niobium ore at New Berlin for a nice amount of credits. After that I filled my cargo with MOX and went back to Orkney, to unload it at Dounby. I returned to Tau-23 to check the miner only to find out he had another load for me. I was a bit tired so I deactivated it and I stored all that ore on my transport. I will take it to Rheinland some other time.
