I have found Jaques Station!

It was a tight fit

I'm amazed jaques had that much KY on the station even for 750 people!

Lmfao!
Astroglide is better than KY. That's a scientifically sound statement, even in 3302 I'm sure.
Hm, I'm a bit disappointed XD First off, why would there be a nav beacon? Kinda shows that the game automatically spawns one if it detects any sort of populated station/planet in it(?).
Jaques keeps talking as if he were alone. What about the hundreds of people with him? Really, I think it would've been a lot better if the station would:
-Appear in a VERY wonky orbit
-Be visibly damaged, perhaps not even spinning and thus not generating gravity
-And if Jacques was alone, rather than have the game start generating expansion news (Like, ??), have him acknowledge that someone has found the station. Like, geez, have some gratitude towards CMDR Cly, personally XD Offer him a cup of tea or... Allow him to take whatever he wants for free from the station. They should best buds by now! Jaques, you jerk! You talk to the media first rather than the guy that saved your life by letting them know where you are!
I dunno, this would've been a perfect chance for frontier to try out a few new things and make this game fee alive xp All these "residents" are just acting like normal despite the fact that they're stuck in the middle of nowhere. Seems very lifeless to me. But hey, at least they tried. And I'm sure many of these things can't be done due to game limitations.

Jacque was the only currently known station WITH an FSD... and a Cyborg 'pilot' that made the modifications that made the station what it is.
Yeah that was pretty weird seeing the nav beacon jumping in. Also, there were RES's around the planet his station is orbiting! It definitely feels kinda cheap, but it's cool that he's all the way out there nonetheless.
I don't really see a problem with this. He's been missing for over a month so I would imagine he would have attempted to put the station in a stable orbit around a planet to begin repairs and establish a Nav beacon to provide system information for the 750 NPCs on board who may be out scouting the surrounding systems or establishing RES in the nearby rings for resources.

Galnet News (Video version) about Jaques:
And beautiful looking nebula in Obsidian Ant's latest video. Looks like a tourist destination eligible for the passenger missions competition(?)
Although what is possibly lurking and waiting for us in those nebulas. [alien]

I don't know if this has been posted already, but Jaques is orbiting a planet which has Pristine Metallic Reserve rings.

Do you have some cargo? I have 32 T Rare good from the station. Lets meet thereI don't know if this has been posted already, but Jaques is orbiting a planet which has Pristine Metallic Reserve rings.
I'm waiting for some player in Open play to celebrate the find!
So Jaques is doubling back on his story now? At first he was talking about how he was both nowhere and everywhere (according to the local news at his station), like he had no control over where the station was going. And now, according to this: https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5774e64f9657ba3d668a023a well... I'm reading it as he did have control after all and decided to drop out.... cover up, FD story flub, or are my thoughts getting away from me?
Or you can cut FDev out of it (because they are just the author) and assume that maybe instead of FD backtracking it's Jaques himself, I don't often read books thinking about the author, it tends to ruin the story.

It makes perfect sense that he would have a nav beacon. Don't you take a compass when you go out into the mountains?
Someone said there is no rearm facility at Jaques, so you will only have the limpets you take with you.
I'll do you one better so FDev can screw up any plot they want after forgetting what that plot is. It has often been written in ED lore that hyperspace opens up to parallel dimensions. We were actually hearing from Alter-Jaques earlier.
There, now anything interesting that was previously written regarding hyperspace can be retconned to be parallel dimensional versions of characters/ships/etc.
