Balls, just got blasted away after jumping to morphe!! A CMDR in a black clipper!!.. I only had one rebuy for my Python so she's staying docked for now! I'm out of the search till I get some Python funds back up, I'll be in my Hauler doing BB missions, if anything comes up shout me!! Anyone fancy killing the clipper in morph I'd be in you debt for ever!..
No, I'd followed it for quite a ways, it had started out much wider and weaker and resolved down to just that strong narrow spike, which usually means you're really close.
Yea I would like to point out that there are Commanders in Open Play in Maia/Merope that I am friends with and that I know to be RP-Backed Griefers. I'm not one to say this usually, but I do recommend heading to solo or Private Group if you wish to stay safe-er in the investigation.
I happened to switch to the Twitch feed to watch this wonder-warrior. He had his buddies there, spawning in almost instantly. Sorry to watch you go down.
Reminds me of the 4 v 1 CQC matches. Yeah, it's hard not to die in that situation. I guess it makes him think he's a leet PVP'r.
He was waiting on a CMDR in a Corvette to exit. One wingmate dropped, another was in another system, and one buddy docked. The Corvette came out. Did our brave CMDR attack? Nah... He's only effective with a full wing.
Ok, yeah, I agree that we shouldn't need hints from Michael here. Although I don't see a lot of difference between Michael saying something here and Michael posting something on Galnet. Obviously FD were not expecting the barnacles to be so difficult to find (though some simple maths would have enlightened them).
So.. I have a weird thing happening. Last UA I grabbed I took to a planet in Merope I believe and dropped it in orbit. Never saw it again. But heard it as it disappeared somewhere below me is my best guess. So now.. here I am going to get another. I've dropped into 2 separate SSS where I hear the UA, get scanned, and then nothing. Not on my sensors, not on my contacts, no noise again. So I apparently cannot get another. I guess they are running from me?
I doubt FD is upset about it taking this long and generating this much interest - emergent gameplay and all.
So class b - blue white star, means it's loosing hydrogen - massive, so likely to go supernova/blackhole - nebulas fueled by just such events in lots of cases.
Good place to look? have we put much time into electra? looks a lot like recent branding - recent galnet news pertaning to the lost, and this is in some myths the lost pleiad - only three landable bodies and a pretty cool hue to the system - it's where I've chosen to waste the evening anyway.

Bout to drop into a world in a planetary nebula near the core. Any suggestions on where/how to look? (Keep in mind this will be like the third time I've flown near the surface of a planet.)
Nothing firm- look for larger star's i'd say, something that has the potential to pop- just a hunch I've got
Has anyone considered looking in a nebula with very few planets/stars?
Most planetary nebulae already have neutron stars or black holes. There is also a big secondary A class here, and the planet is right next to that.
So one of the things I'm seeing here is, when I go down to investigate a PoI, sometimes it doesn't render till I'm right on top of it. UI generally cruise between 1.7-2.2 km, and when I see a PoI I dive in to try and find the structure. One time I closed with the surface in a straight line, and then a structure literally materialized about 400k right in front of my face as I watched.
.
So at this point I'm willing to declare that I already found a Barney, but the game engine prevented me from seeing it.

This is more or less what I have experienced with them.
My diamondback Scout vs 1 clipper, 1 Corvette, 1 FAS and I don't remember what was the 4th ship.
I barely survive each time I faced them. Nothing more to do but to escape in such an unbalance situation.
But I did enjoy helping out the Cmdr flying an Imperial Courrier when he was ambushed just in front of the station's letterbox entrance.
I wish I had a more powerfull ship at this moment and some Cmdrs from both the Hutton Truckers or Dark Echo groups to provide better protection.
Anyway, this is not the reason why I came back to the Pleades nebula in first place.
