Kakleonigon XXVIV, so the star cartographers will hate it forever. Perform a scan on the gas, see what it's comprised of.

You don't currently have the right equipment to scan the planet.

Ask for off-world transport opportunities at the bounty hunter office and pricing

((Based on the recent posts, I assume FTL tech is extremely cheap and fast. Not that Pazmu necessarily knows...))

(Human... Why it HAD to be human?)
Raskar grumbled, but tried to hold his despise - he was here after a job, after all. But his patience surely wearied thin. They better had some good jobs...
"I would like a job suitable for a small starship captain. Be it military, scouting or exploration."
He stared above Linda's head and tried not to look like a twinoid who wholeheartedly hated other races.

Pazmu

A large, muscle ridden man stands behind the counter. He had a large, dirty rats-nest of a beard, but asides from the his facial hair he was completely bald with the name Skinner tattooed on the top of his head, made up of us limbs with parts of the skin ripped off.
Skinner
"What chu looking for pencil arms? ... Transport?" He laughs whole-heartily, smacking his large, calloused hands on the counter. "Transport? No, even if the announcements say "Or alive," Ill just laugh at'ya for bringing them in alive, kill'em myself and take the money."

Raskar

Linda
"Let me see sir." She smiles and looks down at the computer screen. "Well, currently it looks like they're not recruiting military here, but they are on Earth if you want to join up there. If not, there is a job the military will pay you for. Theres a pirate is the system thats been attacking military ships that they'll pay you for taking out."

(Well, to hell with serving humans. Although mercenary job doesn't sound bad...)
"Can you provide me some more information about that pirate?", - Raskar politely required. - "Like weaponry, area of activity, preferred targets?"

"Thanks. I'll go for him, then."

Now, to search weapons for Light Bringer... And to remember a thing or two about spacefight in general. Heck, I don't even know the most effective method of smiting my enemy into wasted cosmic trash!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It didn't have any weapons back then. But who am I to protest?  :)

((Still, can you give some insight into space battles? For now, I don't even know what I must be concerned about and how everything might play out. Can one ambush another in the open space? Quite possible, but you must have very long radar range to do that reliably. What about asteroids and other "environmental" features? Do they affect battles in any way?))

Head to space port and ask for off-world employment

Pazmu

There isn't a whole lot going on at the port, but there are a few smugglers openly trading their ill gotten goods.

Cromwell

As soon as you drop down into the gas of the atmosphere some of the paint on your ship strips off, and theres a small flash from the engines, causing damage to the engines. However, the ship does automatically take a sample of the gas and put it on the computer screen.
55% Methane
35% Neon
10% Helium

The next planet in the system is a medium-sized planet, just from looking, it looks like it has water and plant-life.
