I have essentially given up on open space now that every mission I get involves slowly flying through 4+sectors to reach it, and then slowly flying back.
This is dull as Hell and doesn’t help anyone. So I propose that players be given the option to launch directly into a system containing their chosen mission. This means less time wasted and more time spent actually playing the game.
What about fitting cruise engine or using interceptors? Some of them can even jump!
Because squishy ships die, and the idea is to bring ships that can survive the inevitable cheap ambush from 20k aggro range aliens.

Now I’m amazed. How can any alien kill you in an interceptor or a cruise fighter? You can just outrun them.
And btw, aggro range on aliens is 3000 m. Like any other npc.
Well, I always self-destruct, after I get my daily mission done.
Imagine, what would be, if you would fail the mission with no ways to repeat it, in case if you would get destroyed on your way home, or if cargo escort would get destroyed as well.

I don’t see the issue. If there are missions that can be made unwinnable then that is a separate discussion. This is about allowing players to skip the pointless chore of travelling through open space.
fly with station protection off, im sure it can be less dull 
Solution is simple.
Rift module should be implemented in Invasion mode.
You can create a wormhole or a rift to any of 3 chosen locations.
However, this module must not be GS based, but so far every Invasion module is.

There is an even simpler solution: use something called a microwarp, i.e. use a recon
Recon is the way to go in OS.
If you don’t like 3 cargo you could use gold ship “berserk” or the new cargo module.
Also, I always abandon ship once the mission is completed. I’m not wasting my time flying back.
Eh… Travel with an engie that uses the warp gate, abuse it to hop across sectors?
I’ll typically use a recon or cruise tackler to do my daily monocrystal missions (normally cruise tackler). I’ll also fly with station protection off (granted I have no choice due to my karma level), that way I can kill unsuspecting pilots as they are attempting to do their dailies, XD.

You’re the reason I stopped doing dailies w/o protection.
