Take a look at the second post of this thread...
The other system, Pleiades Sector JC-U blah blah, the planets with barnacles are pretty close to their star.
Actually, Merope 5C orbits a star fairly close, but it isn't the primary star in Merope.

This is exactly what I thought when I saw the first barnacle.
I assume we've tried wailing on that center spire with a bunch of ship mounted multi cannons? Perhaps they're just really tough...... and with enough violence they'll crack open and spew yummy giant melons, and biscuits?
I also saw these flashes, but it looks more like a bug than like a feature.
ah my apologies. not really used to this forum layout so I glossed over that information before realizing it's actually clickable. whoops.
Either way, the subreddit thread about how the texture on the barnacle looks like the Barnards Loop Nebula had decent timing to say the least, as I was in the Orion Nebula at the time read it. I was just looking for confirmation that the barnacles grow on rocky or sandy worlds (as I wasn't aware of the findings after Merope 5C), which seems to be the case from the screenshots.
I won't be spending much more time here, but I'll spend a couple days searching around some rockier looking worlds to see if the texture shape really has much merit. (To be honest, I'm a little bit doubtful. Oh well)
The expression seems more like surprise & mild arousal!
You can see more of the structure if you clip under the ground using the debug camera.
I'd check your graphics settings.
Not at my Barnacle. Those wee bitty's go absolutely everywhere when shot with the SRV. Never had one that rolled to the Barnacle.

Btw, where does one sell meta-alloys? My home station bought them for 0 credits each, even though they apparently have an 80 000 average.
I was just exploring the structure on PLEIADES SECTOR JC-U B3-2 (21.9,96.9) and we decided to check other modes to see if it had spawned, came back and it had completely despawned from Open.
Note that in the dark side it was quite visible thanks to the sparkles it emits from my ship from about 1km up.
Shooting the main structure etc had no real effect. We did agree that the symbol on the alien looked like the Magellanic Clouds. However going to look at them might be a bit beyond our reach?

Sell them at Obsidian Orbital for 80000 each
I'm having quite a bit of difficulty getting any of the fixed PoIs on PLEIADES SECTOR JC-U B3-2 1 to spawn in either open or solo (suspect I'm getting a dud instance of open that has other people not finding them in it). I'm currently at the correct spot to see the 3rd barnacle (thanks to the great screenshot) so I'm going to do some stuffing around to see if I can get it to turn up.
Thankfully I've already had a good look at the first one on Merope 5c so I'm sure I'm not crazy
ok...got barnacle 3 in open. Going to head over to the anaconda wreck(s) now and see if they're around too.
That symbol reminds me of this:
Please keep an eye on the very first post of this thread. Obsidian Orbitals situation has worsened. Rizal has asked us to sell meta alloys to the station. https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5697b7319657ba822748c09c
I haven't read this thread since my post yesterday afternoon and it went up 1200 posts in that time.
Sod that. Not bothering.
On what basis? Couldn't it be making the situation worse?
Let me explain to you what the barnacle is : a thing that is absolutely based on pure LUCK AND RANDOMNESS

Couldn't find either Anaconda or Barnacle 2...they're all I looked for before I returned to barnacle 3, which was still there.
