I thought of something similar, such as attempting to triangulate the Thargoid Titan locations. Assuming and hypothetically the Titans would be positioned in a way that suggested they knew of a rough location where Raxxla would be. I still feel like the Thargoid were researching for something.
The Quest To Find Raxxla
- Thread starter Macros Black
- Start date
Something to that effect. Was practiced by like allot of people but it never performed any results. It's possible it doesn't have to be done at all in lave or tinon. But more like hey here's a guideline on what to do. But we wont tell you what system to do it in. And its possible this person performed it unknownling got to said system, didnt have time to log catalog or anything due to the old discovery system. Panicked left and now its just a experience they have. So Going back over their convo and map they showed. They were above all these systems we have been checking. It's a system between six factions. I noticed some of the systems up there connect to one another like Old vector graphics. There's also a number of large stars and systems with large stars with the parent star being way smaller. Thats what is confusing people. Its a star system with a small star that cannot be scooped the stars orbiting it are red giants. The Galmap only renders the main star so if its hiding larger stars we wont know until going there. Sometimes it'll render all the stars in that system but you have to know what system to lock onto first. I just ran into some system's like that out in guardian space lastnight. Tiny parent star with stars around it about 5x bigger than it.
But if we are talking about systems near large stars on the galmap within the bubble: Col 285 Sector TM-V b18-1 :is a good candidate to use as a point to look around that area. I just noticed the distance it is from Fomalhaut and how many jumps it is to there in econ mode. I wish i was back in the bubble. I stupidly went to the crab pulsar.

Some time ago I mapped the Mealstroms. They form two relatively uniform diamonds.
I believe their common focal point is just below the systems which make up the Norse Norms. That general area is my prime current candidate for the location of Raxxla and correlates with a number of my theories. I believe it’s worth considering the Mealstroms are being used by FD to indicate this location?

But also remember each Titan's name also have star system names too. So thats something to look into too. I think it'll be in an alliance with a low population allot of pirate activity and rare goods being imported/exported. And you can't bring your fleet carrier there. That ones important. I dont think they would allow fleet carriers near raxxla.
Hmm this could be! It sort of hearkens back to initial roast theories that "A vagabond's woe" was referencing Odin, which lead us to pursuing any potential hidden elements within Urd, Jotun, Jotunheim and I think even Odin's Wisdom. But now I'm also seeing that another way to say Urd is Wyrd, which is an engineer system.
I'm sure there's a sound geometrical answer to this (astral navigation has never been my strongest point
so thank you, Universal Cartographics), but why do you need 6 points of reference?Surely, if you have 3 reference points and the target's relative (galactic or local) angles of declination, etc., from each of those points, you can still perform the triangulation?
Even if the 3 points happened to be on a flat plane, the lines would still intersect somewhere - you'd only need a 4th (different 3rd) point if 2 of the original 3 were aligned to the destination.
This 6 locations theory seems (to me) to be based on the Stargate SG-1 way of determining where each Stargate is.
But only if you join them in that particular order, which may have been done to fulfil an already existing idea of what they should look like. I mean confirmation bias allows people to map all sorts of shapes in sets of points, like fish, men with belts, lions, bulls, twins etc. There are many other options I could see to join them.
Call it crazy but what if they are suppose to be original elite ship and station designs that look like constellations.
Inara search shows two Carbon stars in the bubble:
Gl 288 B
53 Aquarii C
Though I thought there was another; Spansh is crashing on me this morning.
Google search also reports R Leporis
You do of course only need 3 coordinates, to determine a location in a 3D environment. That works for both x,y,z systems and azimuth, elevation and distance systems.I'm sure there's a sound geometrical answer to this (astral navigation has never been my strongest point

The six points are more for practical navigation, when you don't know the exact distance to your navigation markers. If you have six points, you can determine an exact location in 3D space, by only measuring the angles between the points. You can determine a position by measuring the sky box.
I think you are referring to:
Raxxla
Cora comes home soused and raving with wild stories, a new one every night. She claims she's found a map to some pirate stash, and all I have to do is loan her my ship so we can go dig it up. Maybe we should go find Raxxla while we're at it! — From the journal of Art Tornqvist, circa 2296 Raxxla...

I would argue the toast gives us 3 directions:
1. To the jewel that burns on the brow of the mother of galaxies.
2. To the whisperer in witch-space, the siren of the deepest void.
3. The parent's grief, the lover's woe, and the yearning of our vagabond hearts.
Yes, I've considered Hera with no results. Hera fits as the mother of galaxies, but I don't see what fits as the jewel on her brow.
I have no clue what the siren is or could be in this case though the brightest star in this void is Arcturus

It's not actually in the void is it, since the nearest edge of the void is 700 million light years away. it's in front of the void by about 700 million light years, no individual star in the void could be seen by the naked eye.
Mostly, everyone figured that to pertain to the landscape signal (calling you deeper into space) but I suppose it could be anything. As for "void" some of us tend to overthink that one. A lot of people generically and historically referred to space as a void in general. Interstellar space, in particular (the space between systems) can be seen as a void however.I have no clue what the siren is or could be in this case though the brightest star in this void is Arcturus

This may be a figurative form of speech. Of the real sirens, we have only heard one that sounds like angels singing from the center of the galaxy. Another case is related to the story of Zurara, where on the way to the edge of the galaxy someone began to hear sirens and voices (meaning members of the Zurara crew)
