Here is a way to span 80 light years in about two jumps. First buy some fuel and launch from the station. Go to the local cluster chart by pressing F6, and choose a planet that lies within the fuel range as normal. Press H to hyperspace and the cursor will disappear, but you can still control it even though you can't see it. Now move the cursor to a planet outside the range and press F6 to get the local chart for that planet. Remember you've only ten seconds until the countdown finishes so you have to be quick. This should cause the jump to move to the selected planet, well outside the 7.2 light year range.
When the title screen with the rotating ships appear press A. This will stop the ship from moving. To move or rotate the ship, press the arrow keys, and to get more rotations hold down A while pressing an arrow key. To move the ship toward or away from you press O or I. Press D when your finished. Press W while flying to tell your score and the author credits.
