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 undetected, but carries the highest consequence when failed: impact with the station and immediate destruction.

=== Tips ===
While in [[Silent Running|silent running]] if your ship starts to overheat you can pop a heat sink then head in the [[Access Corridor]] (mailslot) to avoid scans. If there's a security vessel near the mailslot then it might be close enough to scan you. Pop a heatsink when scanned. Go in cold and fast reduces the chance that security can lock and scan your ship. Once past the letterbox you can go normal speed. Another method is to boost once and turn [[Flight Assist|flight assist]] off to drift inside.
