Line 22:

** At maximum range (7.5km) request docking clearance. Approach station from the side with the docking slot, as lined up as possible, and be sure that no large ships will be in your way. Be sure that you don't draw too close during this process.

** Disable all but the following modules: Life Support, Thrusters. Allow your ship to cool below 20% heat if possible. A Heat Sink Launcher aids in this.

** Head towards the docking slot at speed. As soon as possible, engage [[Silent Running]] (~~check keybindings for the key for this~~). This closes the heat vents on your ship to help hide it, but makes heat build-up inside; this is why we allowed the ship to cool. 'Ship Scan Detected' does not mean the scan was completed. Scanning takes a moment, and if you enter the docking ring or escape before it can be completed, the scan will fail (thus no [[fine]] or reputation loss).

** Head towards the docking slot at speed. As soon as possible, engage [[Silent Running]] (Delete hey by befault). This closes the heat vents on your ship to help hide it, but makes heat build-up inside; this is why we allowed the ship to cool. 'Ship Scan Detected' does not mean the scan was completed. Scanning takes a moment, and if you enter the docking ring or escape before it can be completed, the scan will fail (thus no [[fine]] or reputation loss).

** Enter the docking bay, disable silent running, and slow down as quickly as you can. Your shields will be offline, and so any impact can easily cripple or destroy you.

*'''A sufficiently-skilled pilot '''is able to accomplish the task of entering the station without any special preparations, by requesting docking at a distance and then entering the station at considerable speed. This method is, when performed by a skilled pilot, by far the fastest and most likely to succeed, but carries the highest consequence when failed: impact with the station and immediate destruction.
