There is a way but dont bother. You cant get through the jumpgate without a mod.

You visit Alaska during the campaign but thats all I can say in this forum.

normally it is only accessable in the main story. you can get a mod or change the codes in the game to make it open

To find the passage trough the minefield to the Alaska jumpgate.
Imagen a line on the *zoom in map* from the gate and in between the two weapon plattforms and trough the minefield, pass by the minefield in turret mode and you will see the opening.

@ Chief Engineer

Now that sounds like the navigations of old. The by word of mouth dead reaconing method.

Aye Aye Sir. Left at the next star and straight on til morn.

The opening is almost straight in front of the jumpgate. Line yourself up with that, and you can't miss it. You may have to adjust your course a little, but you can't miss it.

Downloading one of the jumpgate mods(there are at least two which allow access to story-only systems like Alaska) will allow you to enter. There's not much to see though.

And the old fashion way of navigating is fun. Waypoints are for the directionally challenged.

@ Chief Engineer,

I was struggling myself with those mines, so ta very much, m8! I dont usually use the nav map that much any more, I'm so familiar with Sirius that most systems I can navigate by eye and dead reckoning.

Is there anything in there that's worth the trip?

Is that a pocket of volatile gas?
No, that's a jumphole...

at the time m8 I had my reasons for being there! plus it was a challenge in itself, a minor and unimportant one perhaps, but it beats tiling my kitchen.
