{{quote|Supermassive Black Holes tend to form when an initial Black Hole begins to swallow even more mass including other Black Hole. With time they acquire a vast mass - and become a key compoment of the galaxy. With much of the other galactic mass rotating around them and can be several million solar masses.|In-Game Description}}

'''Sagittarius A*''', often abbreviated as '''Sgr A*''' or "Saga", is a famous system that serves as the exact centre of the galaxy. It is home to the game's only known Supermassive Black Hole, and a much smaller white star called Source 2. The system is very popular due to its significance as the centre of the galaxy, and is a common destination for [[explorer]]s.

Sagittarius A* is 25,900 light years from Sol. It will take roughly 700 jumps to reach the system with a 35-40ly jump range. The record time for reaching Sagittarius A* is around 8-9 hours of nonstop play and not exploring the systems on the way there. Normally, a realistic, profitable voyage to Sagittarius A* and back will take a few weeks.
==A Guide to Getting There==
A voyage to Sagittarius A* and back is not easy - in fact, it is sometimes said to be quite dangerous, but if you ping every system with your [[Discovery Scanner]] and explore the ones that look valuable, it can be extremely profitable - you can make several tens of millions from a Sagittarius A* trip.
===The Right Stuff===

If you want to set off on the journey, you need to be equipped properly''':'''
*'''An exploration ship''' - you can't go exploring without having a ship meant for it! [[Diamondback Explorer]]s are particularly recommended for exploration due to their low cost (2 million credits) and very high maximum jump range (34ly). [[Asp Explorer]]s have a higher jump range at 37ly, but they are much more expensive at a price of 6 million credits. [[Anaconda]]s are capable of reaching up to 40ly, but it is extremely expensive. Shorter voyages to other locations like the Orion Nebula can be accomplished in a [[Cobra MkIII]] or a [[Hauler]], however.
*'''Advanced Discovery Scanner''' - most systems, especially systems with hot, white stars, will have objects that are over 1,000 light-seconds away from the star and will not be detected with an Intermediate or Basic scanner.
*'''[[Detailed Surface Scanner]]''' - Detailed surface scans will maximise the amount of credits you can get by scanning objects.
*'''Class D modules''', except [[Frame Shift Drive]] (FSD) - Having Class D modules will increase your jump range, but your FSD must be the best it can possibly be. The best FSDs cost around 4-5 million credits. By the way, if you get worried downgrading your modules to Class D, don't. You don't actually need anything other than Class D (Except your FSD, of course), including [[Life Support]], [[Power Plant]], and [[Thrusters]]. Installing an A-rated smaller Power Plant in some cases might be preferable to a D-rated larger one, due to higher heat efficiency which will make scooping stars a lot easier.
*'''Fuel Scoop '''- there are no stations on the way to Sagittarius A*, which means you'll have to fly into a star's corona to refill your fuel tank. Equip the best one you can afford, you don't want to spend more time next to the star than you absolutely need to.
*Bringing weapons and most utility modules is not recommended! There will probably be no-one around to attack you while exploring, and having weapons or utility slots on board will decrease your jump range. The only utility modules that would be of any use are heat-sinks and shield boosters.
*Shields are useful for preventing damage when landing on planets and for the occasional pirate on return to civilization. Also useful for protection from players who occasionally hang around Sagittarius A* preying on unprotected explorers.
*[[Auto Field-Maintenance Unit]]s are handy to have but they're not essential. Your modules will deteriorate over time and it's likely you will warp into a not-nice location along the way. They don't reduce your jump range.
===Patience is Key===
Sagittarius A* isn't exactly a walk down the street - it's 25,900 light years away from sol. You read that right - Twenty-five thousand light years from [[Sol]]. You won't be able to plop yourself in the seat of an Asp Explorer, hop on over to the centre of the galaxy, and get back to Earth in time for tea at grandma's. It takes, at the absolute minimum, 8 hours to get there. That's not an awfully long time, but remember that the guy that got there in 8 hours did literally nothing else but get to his destination, and 8 hours is just the time it took to get there, and it's unknown how long he spent getting back to Sol.

If you want a profitable voyage, you'll need both time and patience and you must be able to handle being away from civilisation for a few weeks of playing until you get to the core where it's likely you'll meet up with other visiting explorers.
===Know What You Can Scoop===
Not every star is scoopable - only 7 star types are scoopable:
*Red Dwarf Stars (M)
*Orange Dwarf Stars (K)
*Yellow Dwarf Stars (G)
*Yellow-White Dwarf Stars (F)
*Blue Main Sequence Stars (A, B and O)
The sequence can be remembered with the phrase, "Oh Be A Fine Girl, Kiss Me!" or simply "KGB Foam". Be aware that T-Tauri stars are often mistaken for normal stars, as they look exactly the same - but you can tell if it's a T-Tauri star if you get into fuel scooping range and nothing happens. It will also show that it's a T-Tauri star on the system map. Be aware that sometimes you will stumble into massive swathes of space that are full of T-Tauri stars and you might run low on [[Fuel]] while inside. If this happens, search for the nearest scoopable star or if there are none nearby and you're close enough to inhabited space (<1,000ly), you can get someone with [[Fuel Transfer Drone]] to help out.

Running out of fuel in the middle of a voyage is the worst thing that can happen to an explorer - without fuel, you can't make jumps, your modules will run out of power, and you'll be left to die. Unless the fuel rats manage to save you.

==Notes==
* Sagittarius A* is the only known Supermassive Black Hole in the game - as well as being one of the largest objects.
* Being the centre of the galaxy, Sagittarius A* is one of the most popular systems outside of inhabited space. It is particularly popular with explorers, but caution is advised if going there in Open Play as some explorers have had issues with gankers waiting at the black hole to interdict unarmed explorers going to the system.
* Many explorers have pleaded to have a special community goal to colonise the system and build [[Starport]]s there.
* Special voyages have been proposed to bring an [[Unknown Artefact]] to the black hole and see if it will do anything. None have been attempted due to how far away it is, the knowledge that it might do nothing at all, and the fact that Unknown Artefacts attack your ship's modules.
* On 18/02/16 Sagittarius A* became the first location where the theoretical instance cap was broken with over 50 player ships in the same visible space. Soon after this record was again broken with 101 players recorded.
* The maximum surface scan range for Sagittarius A* is 144,278 Ls.<ref>http://i.imgur.com/O1xSG6I.jpg

* It's essentially a harmless graphical entity. They haven't put in any particular hazards yet.

The Imperial Cutter was added in the 1.5 "[[Ships (Update)|Ships]]" update in December, 2015.<ref>https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=191898</ref>

The Cutter features 4 medium [[hardpoint]]s: 2 on the nacelles and 2 on the belly; 2 large hardpoints on top of the ship and 1 huge hardpoint on the chin. Notably, the exterior lights on the ship change color from blue to red once hardpoints are deployed.

With its 792T cargo capacity it has the largest cargo bay a playable ship can have, topping the Type-9 with 260T more cargo space, over 48% more space, while having significantly better shields and speed than the Type-9. This will make it the most logical choice for traders.

Unlike the Type-9, it is extremely well-shielded, very fast (though not maneuverable) for its size, and reasonably well-armed, giving it far greater survivability and allowing some limited use of it as a combat ship, especially in the piracy role. In addition, with plenty of internals available to mount mining accessories while still leaving the largest open for cargo holds, excellent speed for moving from asteroid to asteroid, and a sufficiency of class 2 weapon mounts, the Cutter is unquestionably the best mining ship yet.

{{quote|Specifically formulated structure offering superior resistance to thermal damage at the cost of vulnerability to kinetic attack.|In-Game Description}}

Mirrored Surface Composite is a specialized reinforcement material for the ship's hull. It is designed to give the best protection against energy weapons, such as [[Pulse Laser|pulse]], [[Burst Laser|burst]], and [[Beam Laser|beam]] lasers at the cost of vulnerability to kinetic damage.

Allegedly, it also reduces damage taken from flying too close to a star.<sup>''[needs citation]''</sup>

Military Grade Composite

[[File:Ss_(2014-12-16_at_11.39.21).jpg|thumb|311px|Military Grade Composite]]
{{quote|Hardened structure and compounds offering superior protection against all types of attack.|In-Game Description}}

Military Grade Composite is a reinforcement material for the ship's hull. It is designed to give better protection than [[Lightweight Alloys]] and [[Reinforced Alloys]] against all projectile and energy
weapons. This is not a specialized composite in the way that [[Mirrored Surface Composite]] and [[Reactive Surface Composite]] are. Military Grade Composite offers the best all-round protection of any reinforcement material.

==Specifications==
As with all armor the price and weight of Military Grade scales with the size of the ship. However it is almost always twice the price and weight of Reinforced Alloys.

{{quote|The Viper Mk III is the most recent development of the most successful fighter classes ever built. The original Viper Defence Craft was designed by Faulcon Manspace in 2762 in the Reorte shipyards. The basic model was beefed up with the Viper II by Faulcon deLacy. The new Viper III is a revitalised model with a new more armoured look. It is a top class fighter found in many well equipped police and naval forces...|In-Game Description}}

The '''Viper Mk. III''' made its first appearance in the game in Standard Beta 1. It is the main vessel used by station security forces and law enforcement, and is currently the fastest ship available to purchase. It is a highly effective combatant, with a turning rate comparable to that of the Sidewinder and the same weapon capacity as the [[Cobra Mk. III]]. This has resulted in a "run away from whatever you can't beat" ship which has been known (with sufficient skill) to defeat any other ship class released thus far in single combat.

Its main drawbacks are that its heat dissipation, power generation and hyperspace capacity do not equal that of the Cobra, which limits the value of having the same hardpoint capacity; mounting the ship's full weapon weight makes it very short-ranged, and an energy-heavy armament causes it to either overheat or use all available power very quickly. Fuel is also an issue as the ship comes with a tank with a capacity of only 4, and it can be extremely difficult to find a fuel efficient setup that does not compromise combat ability.

In addition to its official police/security role, the Viper's speed, range and combat capability make it ideal for bounty hunters, small-load couriers, mercenaries or smugglers, while its small cargo capacity makes it a very poor choice for merchants, and a survivable but inadequately profitable platform for pirates.
