UA Mystery thread 4 - The Canonn

[Kalearne]

Given the new hint, can we make this a concerted / group effort? List all the Nebula, systems within as well as the planets which people have visited (and how many POI perhaps?) I don't have enough time, but perhaps someone could start a new thread and keep updating the first post with everyone's data?
A start: http://i.imgur.com/tbYUzFF.jpg

Pleiades Nebula
Witch Head Nebula
North America Nebula
California Nebula
Pelican Nebula
Orion Nebula
Horse Head Nebula
Veil Nebula East
Etc.

An approach I'll be taking is to try the systems whose names are more easy to write rather than those with jumbled numbers and letters. Looking forward to searching once again and good luck to all!

Thanks Michael, we appreciate narrowing the search.
I think for the purposes of continuity and those who don't follow the forums it'd be useful if this snippet of info was revealed in game through a Galnet article.

Agreed ! Needs to be on Galnet to be fair to all ....o7

It'll be newsworthy when someone discovers them

I've recently bought Elite Dangerous and this sounds really interesting to join in.. but is it only for people with Horizons or can I still take part with the base game?

I have a lunch coming up - I can write one, put it on our site and submit it to the Galnet thread within the next hour. Hopefully.

- in response the Michael's comment above - it would simply be saying something about the Canonn community focus looking for alien objects on planet surfaces in the Pleiades

- actually, have just thought of a funny angle on why the search has intensified... Involves an anagram of your name Michael (yet to be fixed) and Onionhead...

The UAs are floating in space but it looks like the next phase of the search is surface based.

Dusting off my Investigative Journalist Asp as we speak!

 

[unrealization]

If the myth thing was inspiration,
Merope serves purpose (connection to Sysiphos) regarding the massive task of "combing" the planets,
as does Alkyone, she was wife to Poseidon, god of sea.

Poseidon, god of the sea, you say? On Earth, what environment are barnacles found in?
Now how do I manage to leave the office so I can go check out Alcyone?

Whoops.. sorry

Especially when we nuke'em from orbit!

 

[PaulR]

Would you be interested in knowing a region of space that is likely to contain barnacles?

Michael

Who wouldn't, but I guess it is right under our most

 

[squiggsy]

I don't think I've ever jumped so fast, 2000LY's in about 1 hour 20 isn't bad, nearly there now! I think I'll pick up a UA and test my theory out, time to get me listening ears on.

 

[BEKTOP 3APEMOB]

So devs need us to find barnacles, because Thargoids are late to enter the scene? Oh I can't wait for it

 

[Cosmos]

Nebulae are good places to look, especially the one with the seven sisters in it.

Michael

Thanks for the hint. You know it would have been nice if we had been given some reasonable clues in game for its location.

There probably are, we just haven't found them... Or maybe not!

You mean all the UA's pointing to the Pleiades wasn't a huge hint? lol we had the information, and we repeated it on here multiple times, we just didn't follow through on the information properly and spent a lot of time doubting it before thoroughly disproving it.

Well people have been scouring Paladies for a long time.. I spent a while there myself but there was little other indication and there isn't anything to really match UAs and Barnacles. The two could be totally unrelated.

 

[Kyp Shard]

What, like UA's forming a massive bubble around the area, and having seven markings on their heads that we theorised a couple of threads back may be associated with the seven sisters? Nebulas being featured in trailers? Those sorts of things would have been good, yeah.

Edit: ninja'd

Ninja'd but I wasn't sure if the comment was sarcastic or not - because, let's face it - the clue was huge!
