  1. Gday CMDR, I used to post this for the new guys when horizons came out, its in desperate need to be updated but it should send you on the right track :)
  2.  
  3. Welcome to Elite CMDR!
  4.  
  5. As you know this question gets asked a lot, so ill copy and paste useful links to help you get started :)
  6.  
  7. If you have horizons and choose surface start (horizons sidewinder), you will start at [Asellus Primus](http://elitedangerous.gamepedia.com/Asellus_Primus) This is a good starting system.
  8.  
  9. If you chose New Commander you will start at [LHS 3447](http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/LHS_3447).
  10.  
  11. First thing you want to do is get out of (LHS 3447) and never look back.
  12.  
  13. **Eravate** system right next door has stations under 200ls away from its star - Cleave Hub, It currently also one of the busiest areas of space.
  14.  
  15. ~~**Kremainn** system has ringed planets with RES(resource extraction sites) for combat bounty hunting, It also has stations close to its home star.~~ ~~Kremainn is now a player controlled anarchy system~~ Kremainn is a democracy again, you are free to bounty hunt there again :)
  16.  
  17. **LTT 18486** and **LTT 3572** system is close by and has RES(resource extraction sites) for bounty hunting.
  18.  
  19. Starting out can be hard, Space is big and there is a lot to explore, trade, mine and kill. Elite has a very steep learning curve and there is quite a few guides online to show you the ropes, grab some coffee and have a watch of a few of these while you are playing through the tutorials of the game :)
