UAs, Barnacles & More Thread 5 - The Canonn

[Tall Bird]

Quick question, I'm kitted out in an exploration ship - where's the LMC? I'll head over and look for barnacles if you don't want to!

 

[John Stoutbeard]

You should look better then
There's a big bolded link to them. Everything is underlined, is a link.
On the big spreadsheet, the tab is called 'form response 1'. I agree a better naming is needed
Panzertand?

Thanks guys, it was just the initial lazy work. Renamed and highlighted in Blue.

What Runcible is traying to say...

It's outside the galaxy, like 160k lightyears out. (We can't go there)

We would be there if there was a way to reach it. It is a neighbouring galaxy. Just try to reach the White Pea Nebula, you might be able to go to LMC from there. ;-)

You will need a ship that can do 163,000LY in one jump!

Anyone tried to stack multiple premium FSD injections at once? It's that ricegrain on the chessboard crap all over again!

*flails in horror*

Everyone'd been mentioning this 'LMC', and I had no idea what everyone was going on about. Thought maybe I could help out

Would just need a fuel tank the size of a small city to do the jump

Hmmmm looking back at horizons release vid

so the shot with the crashed T9.
the blue bit is an Anaconda
the green bit is a building
and the red bit looks like another anaconda.
So a t9 and 2 Anaconda's sounds like a crashed UA convoy to me.
is this a shot of the origin of the barnacles?
Just so you can see the clean version.

Edit : do love the way the engines are still going.

I think so. Fairly sure humans were involved on bringing barnacles/UAs to the Pleiades.

It's that white cloudy thing in slarty's sig just below your post.

Pretty far away.

Large magelanic cloud - may have spelt it wrong

We all admire your enthusiasm, but I think you may need more than a jaunty twinkle in your eye and a family sized tin of travel sweets to get there

Theres plenty of nebulae you can reach that need checking out tho.

I was never to bothered about the origin but if this is it then i wonder what we might get from that station in the pic.

Intresting pic.
if you draw a line from sol through the Pleiades and down then you hit the Trifid of the north.
Trifid - plant - origin? anybody out that way?

Just be careful drawing too many location conclusions. Theres a big yellow disclaimer at the top warning of approximated locations and not to scale.

 

[bitstorm]

Don't think it needs much explanation.

No real reason, just mucking about is all.

Hmm I wonder if you placed the central green dot at Merope if the yellow spires would align to anything.

Not likely, so many stars and judging scale for the overlay wouldn't be possible without some reference.

That's why i asked if anybody was out that way, now we sort of have a clue about what type of planet they are on and the fact that this would be a fairly big site that would be seen in orbital cruise.
Not meaning we should drop everything and haul our selves that way and look.

I've done multiple runs out there during UA times and also during the search for meta-alloys.

Not been out since barnacle discovery.

Though you could argue my trips out are irrelevant since there's a bug where the barnacles just don't appear half the time, I'm not bitter. =/

Frontier

 

[Sole Hunter]

In this picture you see the Juggernaut ship from Alien and Prometheus.
In the top mid section you see a round piece that could resemble the barnacle with the rest of the ship underground.
Maybe soon the ground will open and the ship pops out.
I do not say that it would be exactly the same as in the movies, but i do know that Frontier loves references to Sci-fi movies and such.
This ship is also organic in design so who knows.
I think this would be great though.
