Had a very similar thought, the UAs are cloaking something in Merope, searched the inner system from above and found nothing - didn't check outer system though.

He specifically said 'if you're in the right location'.
This suggests using some deduction methods to work out where they could be and narrow the search. It would be totally meaningless if they just placed these in a random location which is impossible to work out using the clues we have.
I think this is the biggest clue he could give us; "Guaranteed to find them in the right location". So, it's not so much about finding them, but rather the right location. This means they'd be so noticeable it would be near impossible to miss, or that the location is so out of the ordinary...
I agree: all this stuff is intriguing, but the whole story lack of links with the game itself.
GERMANIUM:
-It can form alloys with metals such as aluminium and gold.
-Melting point 1211 K
-Like silicon, germanium naturally reacts and forms complexes with oxigen in nature. Unlike silicon, it is too reactive to be found naturally on Earth in the free (native) state.

Yeah...
When people say things like that, I'm tempted to think of this:http://s22.postimg.org/bp6olb6ht/I150821_161209_2202647o_Text_TRMRMMGLPICT000012328.jpg
Are we really guaranteed to see it? Us? The keystone cops of interstellar mystery investigation?
Barnacles are Super-Easter Eggs of the Elite like Megalodon of the Battlefield 4

I think this is key. We need to determine how to identify which parts of a planet are most likely to be resulting from recent geologic activity.
Shouldn't we split this forum a bit? I would but im not at home. The whole thing is getting hard to keep track and it makes it easy to miss something that might be important.
How about another poll for the suspected systems where we only post FACTS. Planets searched (polar areas most importantly maybe) etc. No theories. So we can see where other people were already looking.
Seriously. In just 10minutes this thread jumps to a new side, at this rate it's not efficient! Too many duplicates and too many theories that has nothing to do with facts and won't really help the search.

Someone reported a graphical bug, which apparently has been fixed. "Here be barnacles?" I'm stuck at work, so can't go check it out for a few hours
Not sure if we'll consider this "cheating" or not...here's the bug report:

Cmdrs i keep reading this thread and i see 2 patterns. Some trying to understand barnacles. And some trying to find the exact same one than the video trailer.
I dont think there is much more to grab from the trailer than :
1) barnacles are in game and
2) they glow in the dark.
And thats it.
Everything else will come from understanding the story.
For example ( but its just an example) ua could be seeds from an alien species spreading disease or terraforming in which case Peregrina would be a good place to look for but it's just an idea.
And being in a Corvette, no way i head there until really bored of my questing in pleiade.
Still looking around looking for geyser like area.

Please this! Pretty please!
Merope is the strongest candidate for me with the UA link. I've started systematically searching the north poles of all landable planets. If that yields nothing then I'll check the south poles and 0,0
Thor's Helmet is also a nebula.
PR-5 R2 S5+6 or pr[5>2] 5,6 seems a little "cryptographic". If this is part of the clues then some of us should look into this in as much depth as we can. I have looked at SIMBAD and it could be coordinates (meh, doesn't look like it TBH. The closest corresponding object is a little too far south west to be part of the seven sister area. ).
Also Pr does crop up in cryptology books - but i am too thick (anybody work in Langley, Virginia; or Cheltenham?).
Wolfram alpha spits out nothing of interest.

I've also been following the forum since thread 2. So many people here now given the traffic report of obsidian we might have a team of 1.5k people or more. Some of them will post here. Some of them won't read the first page. Some of them will post theories. One thing is for sure it will hide relevant info unless you want to backtrack 20pages that were made in 30minutes. WHILE gaming!
Organise! We'll miss the point if it grows like this!
Took a quick detour back to the house at lunch time and found it.
It is in the Orion Nebula. it is called * tet02 Orionis C
Only other thing I've seen in the map with an asterisk other than Sagittarius A*... also no black holes there just two big blue B stars from what I gather from looking at the map.
