The ship was traveling with the ''[[Leif Erickson]]'', the ''[[Amundsen]]'', the ''[[Kossandra Centrella (Individual JumpShip)|Kossandra Centrella]]'', and the ''[[Dr. Livingston]]''. The crewmen and passengers described themselves as amateurs who had been sweet-talked into a crazy venture by a crackpot with too much money and time.

Their systems were failing and they were unable to find a planet to settle. The ''Dr. Livingston'' was lost after after a massive engineering accident, and the other ships were near mutiny because food was getting scarce. They proceeded to pass ten systems in twelve weeks without finding anything suitable.<ref name=HMPSp54/>

The ships' crew and passengers were emigrating to the outer periphery. Their systems were failing and they were unable to find a planet to settle. They had already passed ten systems in the last twelve months without finding anything.  
  
Nothing is known of the ships' fate, and all the information on them was from a file found in a communication buoy drifting in an uncharted star system in the Outer Rim Region, with date 10 September [[3051]].<ref name=HMPSp54/>

The ''Dr. Livingston'' was lost after nine months of travel after a massive engineering accident, and the other ships were near mutiny because food was getting scarce.

Nothing is known on these ships destiny, and all the information on them was from a file found in a communication buoy drifting in an uncharted star system in the Outer Rim Region, with date 10th September [[3051]].<ref name=HMPSp54>''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 54-55 "Where Few Have Gone Before"</ref>
The log entry noted anyone could find them if they "keep heading spinward." It is unknown if this implies they are spinward of the [[Inner Sphere]] in general or relative to their location. The presence of a JumpShip named after Kossandra Centrella, the first [[Magestrix of the Magistracy of Canopus|Magestrix]] of the [[Magistracy of Canopus]], might suggest a potentially galactic rimward area.
