Updated version for the OMEGA update released in Feb. 2024:
The hardest part in permadeath is the very beginning. Once you have stabilized and have access to resources, tools and a ship, it's mostly a matter of time to get this achievement, provided you don't make a fatal mistake (overconfidence, as in all permadeath games, is the true killer here).
To drastically speed up your journey to the centre of the Galaxy, you will need to find the first portal glyph (Sunset). Once you have it, find a Monolith, then a Portal, and simply enter the Sunset glyph 12 times in a row, filling the coordinates. You will reach a planet very near the center of the galaxy, and it should only take you a couple jumps to reach your final destination. This will save you a couple dozen/hundred jumps from black hole to black hole!
