Nick Croshaw

Nick Croshaw was a pilot and explorer. He was known for being the first human who navigated successfully through a jump point into an undiscovered extrasolar system, which was named after him.

Life
On April 10, 2271, after almost ten years of study of the Neso Triangle, he successfully returned from the Croshaw system and reported his discovery, pioneering the profession which would later be known as NavJumping. The system was named Croshaw in his honor, and Nick became a part of popular culture. His discovery also ushered in a new era of human exploration.
