The wayfarer station is ahead, the cruiser is to port (to the left) so you head for the wayfarer station (and at that speed, pass it) and turn left (to the port) and on your next turn, burn like crazy for the enemy cruiser, leaving the Wayfarer station way behind....<br/><br/>You won't even need to make a piloting check.  Making a 45 degree turn at the end of each move action is free... you just need to keep the engines going.  Get Thraxius (with Cortez's help) to pump the engines on the second turn and get as fast as possible... and reach that cruiser before it can get out of the 20 VU bubble you can scan accurately (if it's inside that, it won't matter if it goes into silent running, you'll have a good chance of seeing it).<br/><br/>If it can get outside of that bubble before you arrive, it could escape... which is why you need to hurry.
