I refuse to believe the unknown cannot be known ... Am still holding out hope that the plague is related - Grumbleweed made a nice 3d sketchup of systems ... going to see if i can play with that add some of the new plague systems in ....

@Han Zen, did you know that Quiness apparently used to have a world named New California as well? Check out the "Thompson Thomsonson Death Mystery" article in the FFE journals. There is nothing relevant there except the planet name - which does not exist in ED in Quiness. Maybe we need to start a "Mystery of New California/Let's find Junior" thread?

I would not put to much into the name itselfe. There were a lot of "New Californias" in the FE2/FFE galaxy. I think they made the galaxy first and wrote the storys later.

I would also like to point out that Thargoids use "hexagonal mathematics and hexagonal aesthetics"

Probably because they have three fingers on each hand.

I added the recently found Krisha system, and discovered that if you add a description column to the csv at the end after the coordinates, it automatically adds them to different layers with that descriptor, so you can make the different kinds of systems different colours (UA, Halsey, plague).

Random idea from reading the last couple of pages:
1) Give the UA Carbon (some commodity could, I believe) and Sap 8.
2) Watch the Thargoid use the newly formed limbs to destroy your ship and eat your brain.

Popov, you were asking about mutliple CMDrs viewing one UA before.

Done this thing a while back, about 4 mins or so in it will become clear they are synced.

You can watch the individual videos and extract audio and/or take noted on high/low patterns for comparison. Maybe you'll spot something interesting. :)

Awesome! Thank you very much, I'll work on it when I come back on Sunday! :D

I did a google search for this Number on it also.

Its a phone number in Australia ...

Anyone from downunder give it a call yet?

Before you start phoning people...
Cargo pods are hexagonal. Wasp nest cells are hexagonal.
Vespine storage system is one using stacked hexagons.
The number is likely supposed to be an inventory number for the cargo pod.

My occams razor is sharp.

On top of all this is Games con closing today? Did we predict a big closing hype statement/reveal?

Going off Kerresh warnings we may be about to find out.......and if we don't what was he on about?.......confusing.

I would like to point you to the existing current "Quiness Silver Comet" story since 27.01.3301:

I'm trying to find him since "Elite in Combat" ranking from time to time since months. No luck so far ...
There was a given reference to an Elite book story about the "Elite pilots killer" at around the time of publishing in GalNet.
And (the only) planet "QUY" is a amonia world with Amonia and Qxygen atmosphere ...

We salute you!

1. There is no solution

2. The solution is so obscure you could argue that it was designed not to be solved before the allotted time.

3. The solution is so simple it's a wonder how any of us get dressed in the morning.

4. The solution seems simple to FD, but is obscure for us on the outside since we have no idea what the solution might look like.

5. The solution is simple, but not obviously a solution (e.g. the morse). We've already seen it but haven't realised that's all there is.

6. There is no way to prove the solution, there is nothing to "find", the solution is just conjecture based on an interpretation of everything we currently know


Love the Ammonia discussion, trying to precisely define what conditions are suitable for Thargoids I think is worth doing, even if it comes to nothing. Not being up on chemistry I didn't think to look up freezing/boiling point of ammonia and use that as a range. :)

So −77.7 °C to −33.3 °C the equivalent to 0c to 100c.

But given humans can't really tolerate near boiling, more realistically perhaps for humans 0c-50c or for Thargoids -77.7c to -55.5c or 239.9k to 217.7k.

So perhaps an Ammonia World 239.9 - 217.7 kelvin and an atmospheric pressure of 2.28 (this 2.28 looks right? It's just it's commonly seen on Ammonia Worlds) would make Thargoid peoples happy. :)

It's almost a pity the one I dropped the UA in earlier was in this range, 219k, 2.28A.

You're welcome! There may be better footage around to repeat this now though.

That "doubler" was done a while back and it's not ideal really for specific analysis, but it was fine for what I was trying to show... That some parts of the audio *may be* rendered client-side and well that should be taken into account with any analysis. :(

It might be worth repeating the test with a focus on clear audio, perhaps at Io where the short morse rarely inhibits the purrs.

Am interested to know what you make of it, even if your thoughts are just the same as mine. It's just as far as I'm aware it's only me that's compared two recordings of one UA, and it would be really nice just to get some confirmation.

Good find on the Silver comet.

Quy/Quiness has been tested with the UA I think.
It's probably a different mystery, but something is going on.

If the UA isn't targeting Elite combat pilots only ;-)

Ammonia worlds are more than likely hard to find because ammonia has a very tight freeze-boil temperature range. It freezes at -77.7C and boils at -33.3C meaning that the temperature range required to take ammonia from a solid to a gas is only about 45 degrees. Water is 100 degrees, so while ammonia based life forms are possible (thargoids we know of) they should be more uncommon than say humans because if is far harder to find planets that are "just right". I also think the higher pressures are meant to stabilize but I'm not sure on that.

Also from a terraforming standpoint it seems like terraformed worlds have higher atmospheric pressures and that is probably to counter the fact that there is less oxygen in the air mixture. Earth for example has 1 ATM and oxygen is 20ish percent. A lot of terraformed worlds have around 8-10% of oxygen in the atmosphere but the atmospheric pressure is usually around 2 to 2.3. I thought this was interesting maybe some scuba divers can chime in on this I think they play with air and pressure for their tank mixtures.

I'd like to point out that boiling point changes with pressure. Ie. Boiling point of water at 2atm is ~121c or 394k

Heya,
I just had a look at an Elite explorer mission in Harma.
Now the text got me intrigued and wondering if these missions are just flavour or actually have a link to lore or even in game discoveries.
MMO's usually follow lore with everything and always suspected FD was lazy or not bothered.

On the surface it looks like a simple deliver message mission but Elite ranked?
Why need Elite rank for some dumbass fly here and collect reward mission? FD logic, laziness or are we missing something?
Worth exploring these missions? I don't have Elite rank in exploration so I could not test this.

Also I can see nothing obvious on the map except every ring there is pristine metals and I found Hafnium 178 convoy in the same system.

I have also seen other strange missions pop up, from secret societies that are in game and are not factions.
