Halfway between Colonia and Sag A*

My journey to the Galactic centre in the Deepblack Explorer has given many opportunities to record unknown neutron stars, black holes and various rocky bodies, but until today nothing that posed a risk to my vessel. However today, while seeking a system for refueling, I found a binary star system in which the stars were so close it was possible to scoop from both simultaneously. Amused by the novelty I had not considered that my ship - which never usually exceeds 65% of its heat capacity even when scooping from empty to capacity - would rapidly overheat when subject to radiation from both sides! Cue frantic launching of heat sinks and a rapid departure into the void. Even the best engineered ship needs some shade to stay chill!
