COMMENTS
This ship is mainly a surveyer/transport: find a desired location on a
 world, then ferry cargo to that location across interstellar distances.  
The ship is equipped with a sophisticated chart room. The missile turrent 
is primarily for launching satilites and probes, not weaponry.  There are 
sufficent stores and fuel for 8 weeks of continuous operations.

Total crew is 20 - 11 command, 2 engineering, 7 gunnery,  1 services, 1 
security, 3 charters, 10 surveyers.  This ship is named after 
Terry Oldfield's song "Into The Blue" from the CD _Turning Point_.

Chart room: 20 tons, 1 MCr, 3 crew.
