Besides morale, which is okay, all our resources are now at 3.
Since we only need to go 1 distance, I think it's safe to say that whichever distance uses the least fuel should be the primary consideration, even if that puts ships back on the board.
If you have the opportunity to risk a raptor for resources, I say the Admiral should go for it, especially if he has an SP.

We need a 6 or better to not kill off one population.
Actually, a 7 or better (becomes a 5 or better with the SP). Not that it matters here. Look at that! The Virgons decided to enjoy our hospitality. How thoughtful of them!

I have looked at our options for where we chart a course, and--making sure I got clarification from the GM that this is how it works--as we only need a brief (1 distance) jump to the next point before preparing the final jump to Kobol...
I have picked a Distance 1 card. It costs 1 fuel but we can risk a raptor to get fuel on a 3+. I have played a P3 Strategic Planning so no matter what we roll, that's an autosuccess so no net fuel loss.

Nice job, Salty! The Quorum would like me to convey their appreciation for your navigational skills. (Pulled me away from doing an overhaul on a viper just to talk about it, too. Apparently a radio transmission wasn't good enough. Frakkin' politicians...)

Congratulations Team Humans! You have made it to distance 8! Now you need to get the jump track far enough along to make it to Kobol.
The skies are clear. The fuel went down, and then it went up! All in all a good turn.
But wait! I almost forgot. That wasn't an auto-jump, that was a FTL induced jump. That means we get to play a crisis card!!! Let's see what the Gods have in store for you.
