Cannot get thru wormhole

Beacon 9 - 'Lost in Deep Space'
The research team activates the next alternate symbol and at this point, all communication with the ship is lost. A massive distortion in space is created and the carrier is pulled into it. The distortion eventually forms a black hole, which the player must figure out a way to use in order to proceed to the next location. The black hole is located 20 sectors up on the SZ coordinate.

well i've tried slowly creeping up on it, i've tried blowing thru it with the mantis drive. i just can't figure out how to get through this silly little hole in space before the gravity crushes my ship...suggestions would be greatly appreciated since i'm so very close to completing this obnoxious quest. thanks PLEASE HELP LOL

"If I remember right you just have to keep adjusting your nav point till it's spot on to make it through or was that just past the wormhole? hmmm..."Yoda Moments" Gotta love 'em"...

:D;)

Line yourself up on the center of it with ur autopilot. Once you hear your ship starting to creak, hit F2, it should blast you through. You might have to experiment a bit to find the right spot to hit F2.

Fly to the same sector ... or at least within range of your jump drive. Pitch zero. Heading 360. Right click on the black hole. Subtract 4000 from the Z coordinate. Then jump.

Save before doing any of the above.

LOL...I think the 4000 is for Mercenary. He or She is talking about Legends I believe. Anyways send you a U2U Antikythera. In Legends the adjustment is between 2500 and 2800 depending on your ships speed.....

Maars is probably right. But I think maxing out your shield is also a necessary step in Legends.

2500 is in Mercenary. Tested

I don't know in Legends, though

Gues the Yoda moment was a minor, incomplete one.

LOL...Thanks Rush. Now I do not have to redo the calculations as it stayed the same then....
