This one reads SYNUEFE TTJ C245 (the dashes are not included in the morse)

The main name can get tricky to pick out simply because of the fact that if you lose your place it's difficult to get it back again, but you can clearly hear it starts with dit dit dit (S).

The TTJ is very clear in the middle after the first pause (dah ... dah ... dit dah dah dah) as is the C245 - C is dah dit dah dit, then the five-element numerals dit dit dah dah dah (2) dit dit dit dit dah (4) dit dit dit dit dit (5). If you've ever done any radio amateur morse, you know that CQCQ followed by your callsign is used as a callout when looking for contact (seek you), hence C is very recognisable for those people.

Exceptionally clear recording this time wishblend - thanks :)

EDIT: I'm by no means proficient at morse code, but given the name I can confirm whether that's what it says or not. It would be interesting to have one which is unidentified ... but I'm not really very good at long sequences as the dot/dash/space length varies. If it were a very clear recording with a name like this one with a main name, and two following sub names, then I could probably tell you what the second two were but maybe not the main bit :D

Every system in the game has a name, so we can't get any unidentified systems / planets at this time.

That was tested a few pages back :)
Works fine. It gets the correct name.

Edit: it was you that decoded it :)

So, if this thing is broadcasting, in garbled Morse, the name of the nearest body - even for things where there is no human-made item broadcasting 'proper' Morse - does it broadcast a name for another Unidentified Artefact that happens to be nearby?

Getting the name of a previously undiscovered planet is clever enough; but presumably it must know what 'it' is?

Just tested, you can not select it to put in your ships modules. (think it was tested before.)

I should point out here that in my latest test, the deep space one, they system name (star) was not he closest object.

Test already done.

Without reading up a whole bunch, are these about the strange thingies that you can sell for over 50k? If so, has anyone considered if these are sold the purchasing station, or even whole system, is doomed?

The work with the audio is going really well. I feel sorry about trying to crowbar in another direction for consideration.


The "Obfuscation In The Outer Rim" mission is a plain delivery mission that only an Elite Explorer can take on.
In response to a question on the G+ ED group, I took on the mission to see what it says in the text.
Setting out the mission

After completion

The main point I wanted to make was about the delivery. It was for some unusual crystals that seem to be some sort of map. There was also a comment made about not knowing the frame of reference, a mention of The Dark Wheel and a question of whether they're of human origin or not.

My line of thinking...
Unusual crystals of unknown origin...
SAP8 Core Container contains an unusual crystal...
UA is of unknown origin...

... Crystals, SAP8 Core Containers and Unknown Artefacts are connected in some way?

Wishblend - how on earth have you managed to keep hold of the UA for so long? You must be doing nothing in-game other than keeping a tight grip on it!
Click to expand...

So what wishblend said for me but Wishblend did lose it at one point (by accident) but got another from an accident which caused my one to dupe (see my videos for the trip to the black hole test). But I haven't lost mine once though due to me simply sitting in a station untill a test arises that I'm happy to do as I did try to do the Nav Beacon test but decided against it when I was attracting attention as soon as I jumped in....my reasoning behind this currently is that Wishblend has an UA still but once that goes (if it does, please don't please don't) then we'll still have mine and I'll attempt to do tests then on, yes it does make testing go slower but it's better than losing all ingredients of the testing.

Is "SYNUEFE TT-J C24-5" the name of the system star or the closest object?
Click to expand...
That is a system name. It will also be the name of the star if it is the only one in the system (if there were two or more then the stars would be SYNUEFE TT-J C24-5 A, SYNUEFE TT-J C24-5 B, etc.)

Thanks. It was the C24 thing that made me unsure.

Star I think, it should all be In the video, at the end I select the nearest object and fly to it.

In the navigation panel, the star is still at the top.

It could be that the ua scanner is picking up the nearest biggest gravity object.

I say this as the nearest object was a small ice planet / moon and the next biggest object was the sun.

So the scanner theory is still valid.

Only one star in that system.

I suspect that, when marked as being in "deep space", the system name is used.

I have two questions now:

1) Are we 100%* certain that this stylised/corrupted morse is 'fact', or do we need further verification & testing, before it gets added to the wiki?
2) Out of interest, is this new, or do the previous 1.2 recordings also contain this stylised/corrupted morse, and if so, do they indicate the same thing?

* ok, we're talking about 'wiki percent certain'. It is important to be pretty sure though, as it would potentially kill any further investigation for folks reading it, as people tend to believe what they read on the internets, I know I do. Plus we'd have to provide a reference as 'evidence'.

I don't have headphones here, but I can't make out any morsey sounding bits myself, plus my stomach keeps making distracting sounds like the UA purring. Maybe its hungry. The UA I mean. ;)

I agee.
The signal from a planet will be over shadowed by the star at large distances. (It's using standard game mecanics).

Another interesting aspect of the deep space video is that it does not seem to take more time between the honk and the chitter. Transmit-Receive seems to be instant.

I was on my phone with no Twitch app. Sorry to bother you with things I should have remembered.

My question is, is there anything else hidden in the signal apart from the morse that we can work out.

It would be nice to get a comment from ed if this is the case so that we don't need to keep looking or if there is still more to uncover.

We don't need to know what if there is something else, only confirmation that there is something else apart from the deciphered morse.
