Survey work
- Phase 0 - Remote Survey: initial sector maps indicate the presence of stars and any other major phenomena—such as black holes and nebulae—that are detectable remotely, from outside the sector.
Features that are undiscovered and unidentified (i.e., GM level) will be denoted by a red unknown object symbol in SST; discovered features that are as-yet unidentified will be gray.
- Phase 1 - Sector Mapping: the ship is on an ordered course that should allow it to utilize its sensors in a manner that will detect all notable system (and non-system) features, such as planetary bodies. If they do not, the features remain undetected. Use the base Difficulties (enhanced by the Strength Package) indicated for the ship's long-range sensors. All star systems will have their orbital patterns determined by this survey.
