A commander exploring near the eastern edge of the galaxy at Hawking's Gap suffered a major setback after accidentally colliding with an oversized fungus. This crash caused the loss of approximately 120 million credits worth of cartography data and 1.2 billion credits in Exobiology scans. The incident forced the commander to jump back over 21,000 light years, erasing hours of careful exploration progress. This event underscores the inherent risks of deep-space exploration and the fragility of valuable data collected during such missions.
