Im failing to see how echolocation should work in space at all, as there is nothing to carry waves. There is no sound in space.
Radiowaves rather than soundwaves.

I think that might be why Alex used quotation marks around the term. I don't think it's too much of a stretch to refer to "EM wave pinging" as "echolocation".
It's called radar.
Though on the subject of no sound in space; I'm assuming that our ships sound rigs are generating these sounds to give additional environmental data to us as they do with engine sounds, etc of other ships. What data are they using to generate the sounds we hear? Are the ships sensors unable to identify the objects, and there's an "unkown object" sound file that they're playing? Is this why the UA and Barnacle appear to sound similar? Or are the ships sensors interpreting some invisible (to us) EM wavelengths (or possibly particulate/ionising radiation) and recreating that as sound?
About those "sounds" in which we do not find anything.
UAs draw our ships, and for that they need to "see" us. And since they obviously do not have eyes, they are likely to use "echolocation".
Because all the signals we receive are interpreted into the sounds by our ships, these whale "sounds" may be just waves which UAs (and Barnacles) are using to see around them. (I mean that these sounds have nothing to decrypt.)
I've added your mission report to the OP as well.![]()
Crap. I already ate it. And to think, the answer to this entire mystery was right in front of us this whole time.
But man, it was delicious.

Has anyone been monitoring spawns at all since the last update. I'v got 4 permanent barny spawns In Pleades Sector JC-U B3-2 Planet 2. They are on the spreadsheet. Is anything like this occuring elsewhere?
