Yellow mist? Nobody mentioned yellow mist! How am I supposed to find anything yellow in this?

hahahaha!!! Well, I suggest that you use other senses and sensors.
Be careful so you don't fall into the pink madness of barbiness.
I'm in NGC 1333, following on from my post a few days ago that led me there. Scouted around over the weekend but did not find anything. A couple of B class stars near the nebula with landable planets but, as I said, I did not find anything. Temperatures did indeed seem too high at 600k plus on most planets. I only searched the systems adjacent to the nebula, not further down the strip. I will head back to Maia soon unless there is something else worth searching in the vicinity, if anyone cares to suggest?
Very first post on here, but I've been monitoring closely.
It seems as if we finally have some information about SS1. It "seems" like nothing at all...

Just incase some of you haven't been checking up on Galnet

Exactly what I expected to hear from an investigation conducted on behalf of President Hudson...

I which the other guys had won th CG. Feds probably have a cover up going. They always do. :-/
It could be a signal only visible at certain times, according to the orientation of the world that the barnacle is on and which way in the heavens it's pointing at the time. Is it always a steady glow or does it ever flicker?
...and don't forget Dr Arc

It appears to flicker if you are moving, which suggests a graphics "glitch" (I'm using glitch loosely, but more of an artefact of your movement) It seems steady if you are still. Yes, it only seems to be visible this far away when on the night time at the location of the barnacle.
I'm more worried why they've deleted Valentine's Day? Why Galnet, why??
So...
SS1 - "complex, multi-stage engine failure", "abnormal energy signature", "mechanical failure".
Antares Incident - "multi-stage engine failure", "energy signature", "failure".
Facece Empire Capital Ship - "multi-stage engine", "energy", "failure"...
Palin - "engine", "failure"... ?

A dark day for every gamer! Best forgotten.
Went to visit the new barnacles on Ple. Sec. IH-V c2-16 C 4.
Place must be crawling with them because I immediately found a new one (well at least i can't see it on the list) very close to the others:
-1.614
-163.541

THIS FOR ME! I have been asking that since people figured out the UAs were sending Morse.
Morse is a code (as opposed to a cypher). A code is a mapping from some meaningful unit (word, sentence, phrase) into something else (usually a shorter group of symbols). It would be extremely difficult to try to decipher a code if you did not know the language it was written in, similar to our problem with Egyptian until we found the Rosetta Stone. You might figure out a pattern (short-short-long) but you really couldn't get more meaning out of that unless you had a codebook. Codes require a codebook.
If it was Thargoids, why would they use a human code which is unknown to most humans? Morse is archaic at best. More meaning could be had by a sequence of atomic numbers or frequencies, which would be universally known by a civilization capable of starflight. If you are trying to communicate with someone you don't share a language with, the first thing you'd transmit is a decode primer (see again Rosetta Stone) with, say, "iron = FE = 55.845 U = HELLO WORLD."
When we sent out the Voyager ships, we did exactly this; we also included music because those harmonic sequences are also universal (whether we like the sound/frequencies or not). Remember 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind'?
Also, we had contact with Thargoids before; we came to some kind of uneasy peace with them after awhile. Thus, they'd know human languages; why would they bother with Morse? If the UAs were merely transmitting an "i am here" signal, they wouldn't need anything complex; any repeating rhythmic signal would suffice (and be parsimonious regarding power and reach of signal).
I'm betting on the UAs/barnacles coming from a human source - maybe/probably the lost colony ships?

You guys think there's any merit into making OO <-> Maia b1ba passes? Search for story based NPC, SSs, NPC-Conversations, or something else that could make a rare appearance? Haven't seen anyone else saying they're looking, yet. Barnacles are still the hot topic.
Palin was suppose to be our "Hands on" (Poking UAs with a stick) scientist while the rest of us search the stars. Now he's gone and I want there to be a trail of breadcrumbs. Some corrupted carrier signal that needs translating. Points to an area of space or a POI, where there's a wreckage and a black box spouting jumbled audio leading on and raising suspicion of alien attacks, government cover ups, and wealthy NPC-ish individuals who are as curious as us and willing to dump credits to find an answer. Like the big treasure hunt, but instead of money the reward is a story. I'm doubting it exists though, this is starting to feel like a "Keep flying around till the next update" quest. Just like the past updates.
It really bugs me that there's something, alien or not, interested in OO (Ludicrous speed DBX) and as soon as palin walks out the door he goes missing. Shouldn't we be seeing more weird things around there? Hearing about weird things? Not just in galnet, but there in that space? Unless all they wanted was Palin, in which yeah. There's nothing to see till the next NPC sacri-scientist steps up to the plate. I've not seen anything, and haven't heard of anyone else seeing anything, so its getting hard to work up the motivation to keep caring.
TL;DR Is there any chance searching for Palin will reward us with story discovery? Or do we keep doing what we do till the next galnet post?
