Running dark and running silent, just the way I like it out here. We're really on a roll and it won't take us nearly as long to get this system finished up as it did for the last one. 51 moons overall and about 2 hours time after all will be said and done. That also assumes we don't run into any unforeseen circumstances.
Crew is doing well. Of course it's my cream of the crop exploration crew. I've been asked a lot lately about the size of the crews on the different types of ships I fly. Of course the exact number is classified but I generally see it as follows:
Frigates: 5 - 15 crew members
Cruisers/Battlecruisers: 20 - 50 crew members
Battleships: 800 - 1500 crew members
Carriers: 2,000 - 5,000 crew members
Of course it all depends on the mission and the ship. For instance the survey and intel mission I'm on now requires about 4 crew members to safely keep the ship going around the clock. If we were conducting deep strikes then I may have double or triple that many in case we take casualties in battle and to assist with battlestations.
