From March 17 to March 22, the expedition departed from the Galactic Centre towards the second main objective, Beagle Point, and traveled to Waypoint 8, "Hades Edge" in the Swoals IL-Y e0 ("Goliath's Rest") system. The optional waypoints along the route were:

*Rhuedgie KN-T e3-721 ("Breakthrough Echoes")
*Rhuedgie KN-T e3-721 ("Breakthrough Echoes")
Unlike previous waypoints, Swoals IL-Y e0 was a system that could only be reached with the use of [[Neutron Highway|neutron star supercharging]] or [[Synthesis|synthesizing FSD injections]]. An alternate waypoint base camp, "Lower Hades Edge", was selected in the Hypiae Phyloi LR-C d22 system on planet A 2 (surface coordinates 23.675, -113.437) for those expedition members piloting ships with jump ranges below 45 ly, or those who did not wish to use neutron star supercharging.
