'''Sagittarius A*''', often abbreviated as '''Sag 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, also called [[/Sagittarius A*/]] 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.

*'''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 Mk III]] 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.
