Has there been any discussion of this detail?
Maia B is the black hole which is 300,000 ls away from the Maia A star and Obsidian Orbital. So if he's going to be flying to b1ba (first moon of second moon of first planet of the black hole?), that's quite a trek with lots of opportunity for interdiction. I suppose it's also possible that this will be an early reveal of intra-system jump capabilities.
Anaconda has 8 emergency escape pods here:
4 on each side.
Some kind of a pipe transport system?

Well, there's jack all out in the Horsehead nebula, witch head, fire, orion, running man, and baranard's loop from the sampling the Utopian Envoy has thus-far conducted.
Guess there really isn't any point in doing anything until FD implements each piece of hand-manipulated aspect to this particular plot.

I don't think so. They usually pich them under the meeting table when they do UA-massacre debriefings. I have no idea what they are for.
Question: Has anyone filled up their cargo with Meta Alloys and then went and captured a UA?
Curious if it eats the metal first.

Always 17 spikes. Pattern always the same (spiral similar). Discussions have been made about a similarity to a galaxy from above.
The fireflies are always like you've noticed.
EDIT: I've updated the FrontPage with these details.

HIP 19382, is the system I'm inspecting now. It lays in the aforementioned line.
Anyone currently at OO, please do me a favor and sit in front of it (10km out) and check for unknown ships. I just encountered two unidentified ships - maybe one twice with a 2min break between the sigthing. I did record them and am currently uploading the video. The movement is circular to the station at about 12km out. The behavior of the ships seems to match what has been reported lately - sideways motion, showing on sensor but cant lock on. The speed seems normal though and i wasn't able to identify them.

Fibonacci spiral ? Just a suggestion.
And indeed it's unlikely to ever be a perfect line, since whoever designed the galaxy didn't lay out all the stars all regular and nice and tidy!

Off-topic, but that previewer is excellent. Will have to start using that imgur tag!
Nice shots too!
Looking at this sheet might suggest the Anaconda's cargo hatch malfunctioned, spraying UAs that grew into barnacles. There is a beautiful row of them.
Of course, the barnacles could have taken it down, too; or it could have been flying over them for a look, with UAs and lost its thrusters/PP/AFM coincidentally.
There is my other idea about some of the lines of barnacles. Planet 1 and 2 are seeding eachother. So far, only leads for UAs being baby barnacles are circumstantial, but there are a lot of them.

Here's the video of 2(?) unknown ships/objects at OO i mentioned a few posts back. I feel like it's displaying exactly the behavior that has been reported recently, including appearing and disappearing from the scanner and refusing to be locked on to. But to be honest I'm not sure what to make of it. Glitch or time for more tinfoil?

I'm not disputing what you posted because you clearly did see something. Are you sure it's not the return of "Bob", the gravity glitch? It seemed to move in a similar way, pacing your movements ahead of you.
Being in Maia and there is a black hole in the system after all.
I'm not sure of anything - except that there definitely was an object (it even reflected light sporadically) that's why i posted the video. I was hoping someone would point out "oh it's this" and i could move on. I recently just heard of Bob as well, thought he died tragically at the hands of the minions of bughuntia
Just to check, the object IS visible to you right?

Maia's black hole is pretty small, and it's 300,000 ls away from the main star where Obsidian orbits, so I doubt there is any visible distortion. Definitely worth double checking the direction of the black hole the next time somebody spots this anomaly, but off hand I don't think that explains it.
I think you're reading too much into this. As has been pointed out before, the Anaconda crash is a standard point of interest. If one of them is missing the pilot's seat then all of them are missing the pilot's seat. That makes it extremely unlikely that the missing seat has any significance to the barnacle mystery.
My money is on the Anaconda crash simply being a little puzzle to point us to the barnacles since we were taking so long to find one. I doubt it will have any further significance in the story.
