OXPs that add activities near the sun?

Post by Astrobe »

I'm looking for OXPs that add activities near the sun.

I know of Wildships that may add a solar station, and "Solar Harvesters" (unreleased alpha OXP by ocz). Are there others?

[EliteWiki] Rescue Stations has a mission or two where you get to go close to the sun.

Thanks for the answers. Unfortunately they were not what I was looking for.

PS: I think I'll just make Wildship OXP spawn its stations near the sun - one per system of course. I find that Wildship has a tendency to "overpopulate" systems, but the opportunities they offer are interesting.
I'm also considering making the fuel scoops act as a small (1LY or less) extra tank refillable by fuel scooping only (some plasma remains in the pipes after scooping, that get "sipped" once the main tank is non-empty). Should provide another good reason to go hug the big plasma ball.

Curse of the Black Sunspot will give you quite a bit to do, close to the sun..
