So, we're beginning with the bare bones basics - how to get to our cradle, our home, our mothership, our refuge in times of a single docked war target in local who is probably asleep and afk (SDWTILWIPAAA). Alt E, open people and place. Search Type by Solar System, tap in Aldrat. Right click aldrat, set destination. Time to start chugging, space pilot capsuleer dude person. But wait, there's more then one station in Aldrat? Oh no Bernard! Crisis! Click info on Aldrat, tab to orbital bodies, scroll down to Planet IX, click info on Aldrat IX - Pator Tech school, set destination. As you can see, the autoroute has changed from a + to a square. This means that it's no longer a system destination, but a station in a system destination. The other way is to fly to Aldrat, right click in space and dock at the desired station. Huzzah, you've taken your first step into a larger world. Have you typing GF after ganking some plexhauler in no time.

===Overview, D-scan and Local - Our eyes===


Our overview is our eyes in EvE, aka Everyone versus Everyone. As you should have done by now, you have set up a few overview tabs. http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Overview if not. For this class and practical, we'll be using PvP Travel and Pod saver.

Grid is the local arena of space, roughly 300km in diameter. It is possible to burn away and be offgrid, at roughly 350-450 km and not show up on the overview of people at the gate. It's an involved subject. http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Grid_Manipulation goes into it in more detail, but ongrid = overview. offgird = d-scan and probes is enough detail for this class.

Local is a system specific chat channel - shows us who is in system with us, and what their standings is to us and the Uni. Just because someone's is blue, doesn't mean they're necessarily friendly. It's always a good idea to keep an eye on it, for local spikes or what hostiles may be in system.
