UAs, Barnacles and other mysteries Thread 8 - The Canonn

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, but I just noticed the system description for Merope reads -

"The system is seen as the key for a mystery starting in 3301 with the discovery of unknown artefacts that point to this system. The first of an alien species known as 'barnacles' was discovered on Merope 5 c in 3302."

I'm not sure if it has any relevance to the key reference in the newsletter, but I found it interesting that the same word is used. Could just be a coincidence, and I'm not sure if it helps anyone solve anything but i thought I would share an observation
 
Maybe not, but it does feature big on the front page of every search engine into which you type its initials. CTRL-T, J, P, L, ENTER. Six key presses. You used fifty times that many to compose your original response. :S
fair point (but your forgetting to count the backspacing required to post a ledgible line by a dual digit keyboard thumper)

I just remembered that some tip off were refering at some kind of "inteligent lights". I keep believing that once we do the right actions, these lights are the "message" that will be revealed to us.
 
A fresh day and a fresh start!
Apologies for the kerfuffle yesterday - frustrations showing.

Special greetings to the Cat Herder in Chief, LZ ;)

Let's have some good science today chaps.

Hypothesis + evidence -> theory
Theory + prediction -> research
Research + results -> Paul
 
Anybody notice this strange sound on the ship crash tip offs?? This is my first ive heard this. Its weird.............https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okKWsypCNhk&feature=youtu.be

'Singing ships' yes. Not only for the Condor Tip-Off. We can find them as RNG-POI as well as in USS Degraded and Encoded.
I've found Sidewinders, Condors of the singing kind in USS. I forgot to check a few others before I was aware of it.
It was discussed a bit back in Thread#7.

Been checking out quite a few of the singing wrecks tonight - but this time I've noticed they have knocking in the background.
Most prominent is the Diamondback.
Is it morse? A cry for help?
Someone is knocking on the hull! ^^

The Condor / Eagle / Sidewinder - you can sometimes hear knocking from these as well, but very low. (The singing variants).
Anyone able to decipher what's going on here?

A Eagle / Condor combo should be ready here in about 10 minutes or so.
I wasn't aware of the knocking, or rather didnt pay attention to it until I found the Diamondback, so there is very little knocking sequences in this one.

Thread 7 lived for several months. Days into thread 8, we are already just shy of 1/6th the way to thread 9.

This hidden message stuff not being discovered ASAP has given people an excuse to explore and connect. I spent hours "playing ED" in Audacity last night, totally new game experience.

Hey, it happens! Plus ça change!

With so much passion flying around, some is bound to get stuck to the fan blades of science.

We all want the same thing - to find whatever it is this thing leads us to - together.

And we will.

Science on!!!
 
Woah 60 pages, i only left yesterday afternoon and you lot do 60 pages.
Ok so what did i miss?

I know - this thread has developed some legs ! Just spent the evening glancing through the past weeks posts .... Im still loving MBs response to you ....

The UAs purpose is a transmitter.

I mean ... we knew it transmitted ... but now we know it is a transmitter. It has a purpose ... a raison d'etre... brings back memories

:)

And as a transmitter it fits into a pattern - and we can start looking at the UP as part of that pattern (feels like might be a transponder) which might suggest where to look for free floaters ...

Maybe those extra arcs on the top of the basketball are transmit and receive symbols ...

Apparently I already repped you, so have a virtual +1

Good morning all you fine ladies and gentlemen, how's sciencing going?

I'm a bit confused as to why we're taking a picture of a sound and then turning it into a sound again. It's already a sound. Also it sounds like horribly robot bagpipes. Good work though.

Yes! :D
I know, I know, I did it only because I was curious if that CMDR was trolling us, and moreover because if I see something new, or that I did not know, I have to try it myself. I don't think that song/music is relevant or useful. The most that it can be is an easter egg, like Braben face in the other spectrogram. ;)

Well played Mr. Brookes... Well Played...

Well done CMDR! I've checked it and I can confirm we have Braben face, Elite logo, Frontier logo, a wireframe Cobra, And SOME MORSE CODE LIKE glyohs on the middle/upper part of the spectrogram.

Hi Riz, can you show the input (extract of sonogram glyphs) you used for that process?

also- I got confused by one of your earlier posts; can you confirm whether or not the UP responds to an ADS scan whilst in your cargo hold? I thought it had to be deployed to be able to respond?

I'll post them later, I've them on my PC at home.
And YES, the UP does not react while in hold: it needs to be outside to reply. Anyway, I cannot deny that some other result could be obtained with UP in hold, while doing THINGS SOMEWHERE.

According to the fine folks over in the discord #chat_science, ^

THERE IS SOMEONE ALIVE

From discord, #chat_science:
Nodus Cursorius - Today at 10:20 AM
.. -- .- .-.. .. ...- .
It's "I AA AM AI ....(5 second pause) I AM ALIVE" then a long (20 second pause) and it loops - via @QuantumDelpha


How do I rescue the poor sod?
