I'd like to know about the other Erewhon wormwhole
terminus. Various maps show it in different places. Also two names are given Joshua & Sasebo. Which placement and name is correct. |

The terminus has 3 known connections:
Also, some fan made maps have given the name Sasebo to Joshua and vice versa. The location of Joshua should be at 1/3 of the distance on an almost straight line to Erewhon, ie. NE of Sol at a distance of ~172 ly. Sasebo should be located somewhere SW of Sol, exact location not known. --- Jack of all trades and destructive tinkerer.

The third terminus (Sasebo) was mentioned in the short story Beauty and the Beast found in the sixth Honorverse anthology Beginnings. See the Honorverse Wiki on Sasebo. --- Jack of all trades and destructive tinkerer. Anyone who have simple solutions for complex problems is a fool. |

It's on p.215 of the hardcover, and there's only one reference in the story that I could find. The next paragraph doesn't make any sense, at least to me, and I still have no idea where the 859 ly comes from. |

I think it's a typo from one the sources I used, it should probably be 359 and refer to Joshua. --- Jack of all trades and destructive tinkerer. Anyone who have simple solutions for complex problems is a fool. |

I think it's from the map in Jaynes RMN if I remember correctly. --- Jack of all trades and destructive tinkerer. Anyone who have simple solutions for complex problems is a fool. |

It is, see the scanned book originals. It's in JRMN and the Evergreen one. --- Jack of all trades and destructive tinkerer. Anyone who have simple solutions for complex problems is a fool. |
