Title: No Good Deed Goes Unpunished (UPDATE 1.0)
Deep Space Imperial Listening Posts have reestablished comms with the Praea EUQ rescue team! All though rescue efforts have so far been thwarted the situation is not as dire as first suspected. The Rescue Team is alive and well despite suffering dire systems failure. Many have been able to repair and deploy SRVs and have begun a grid search of the maze of canyons on the second planet, locating the downed Commander and trying to establish a route out of the maze and to safe landing point. Despite not finding a clear path of egress the search has yielded some unexpected results on the distant, uninhabited planet in the form of wreckage. A downed satellite of unknown make and origin yet containing Alliance Data has been found close to the fragments of what appears to have once been a base of some kind, though the Rescue Team is simply not equipped for a more detailed analysis of the decayed structures.
In addition, the Listening Posts report the remnants of gravatonic waves have been detected in the region. It is believed these waves may have been the cause for the ship systems failures and perhaps even hallucinations experienced by the pilots. Gravatonic waves can have a polarizing effect on simple water molecules, causing them to influence the brain much like alcohol. The source of the gravatonic waves has not yet been determined as they can be caused by natural or man-made (dare we say Thargoid-made)phenomena.
Stay tuned for additional details as the situation unfolds.
Original Article=====================================
Thargoid Incursion? Space-time displacement? Hidden Pirate base?
Your guess is as good as ours but the Pilot's Federation Shipping Authority is urging Commanders to stay out of the vicinity of PRAEA EUQ GK-Y B30-0 as several ships have reportedly gone missing or suffered severe system failures in the area within the past 24 hours. The situation started with a distress call reporting a Commander trapped on the surface in his SRV after his ship failed to return to his location when recalled. It was initially believed his ship perhaps crashed on the treacherous landscape of the second planet but the real reason may be far more ominous. Now several other Commanders have also gone missing after initiating a rescue operation and jumping into the area. Comms from the rescue team have been distorted but seem to indicate massive ship system failures as well as ships phasing in and then back out of existence. Can any of this be believed. Is this perhaps a new attack by the Thargoids or a Witchspace breach into normal space? So far the major powers have taken no action nor issued any statements. Stay tuned for further details.

good work getting back into the light bomba.
Bomba is making good progress with the help of Peregrinus to scout for him. I still can't get too close without crashing - going to park up for now, and log back in later.

When I woke from my nap I found the planet had entered into Twilight. Beautiful and spooky at the same time. I wish you could see this Bomba.
After hearing radio chatter I was exited to go meet the resque crew and the man himself CMDR Bomba. But I got second thoughts when I found myself stearing into an abyss. The fading light made it impossible to see the bottom.
But after a carefull decent I finaly arrived and found the guys in high spirits - joking and drinking tee around the campfire.
After Bomba tucked in for the night I decided to scout ahead. I don't mean to get everyones spirit down - not after they made such great progress - but further up the valley I was met with a grim sight.
Two SRV wreks, two scimmer wreks and a data point with more intel for the Alliance.

Oh, and many thanks to Bomba for offering himself up as immersive content for the rest of us07 Exploration is sooooo much more fun when there is real drama attached.

This really needs to be at the top of the forum page!!!
Hopefully FDev will see it and things will happen. For a start - Planet Wilson it has to be!!! CG... Yes... Rescue Bomba!!!

So much for the old inch deep crap .Those canyons look miles deep .
This is a fantastic read and great to see everyone having such fun!
