I was attempting to travel to 78 Ursae Majoris for the CG when I realized I had miscalculated the needed fuel. I was much further away than I anticipated and had no fuel scoop and the 1k credits you start the game with. I tried to make a last ditch effort to a local station when I was interdicted and promptly blown away.
Upon respawn in my new free Sidewinder, I decided to try one of the bounty missions worth 164k credits with a 2 day timer. I figured that would be good for a beginner due to the long duration. It listed that the criminal could be found frequenting 3 nearby systems so I spent some time flying around each and scanning the locals. I didn't find who I was looking for but I did find some random guy with a bounty on him so I took him out successfully. Sadly, the bounty was only for about 4,600 credits but it felt like an accomplishment. I managed to die once and make 4,600 credits in my 2 hours of playing. Right before logging I did learn that the unidentified signals are part of my bounty mission so I'm hoping tonight to be able to complete it. I should probably do some more research on the game as I'm going in rather blind, but it's been entertaining learning by trial and error. When I was experimenting with hypder-drive and super-cruise I did manage to fly into a star. Quite the experience.

The 164k bounty missions are vs elite anacondas. Don't try them in a sidewinder

Actually in the beginning you can do missions until you get a viper for RES bounty hunting.
