Dreadp1r4te's theory is the best one I have seen up till now, but I am personally not very convinced yet. That is not to say we shouldn't continue this line of thinking. The UP transmitting information of the whole system makes sense in a lore kind of way and it reacting to a discovery scanner.

Also, the UP wailing does not indicate a planet with barnacles. In one of my tests the UP wailed when in proximity of a planet that you could not land on.

As for the status of my UP. Support has not responded yet to my ticket. The Canonn should have two UPs somewhere. From my sources one may become possible for use today and the other might be seen on the Educating Ed's livestream today.

I hate to be that guy, but just because we can't land on it doesn't mean barnacles can't. Now it's likely they haven't been added to those worlds as to my knowledge they don't even have surfaces mapped yet, but just a thought.
Maybe it's responding to some other stimuli. Someone mentioned that it doesn't wail near a star, nor deep space. Maybe it's responding to metal content? Temperature?

There is a recording of the probe next to a non-lendable planet, and the UP honks, and we can reasonably assume there wouldn't be barnacles on that one

It may not be that simple. It may change frequency of honks based on proximity, i.e., hot/cold. It might not be a binary answer.

Possibly the honk is to trigger a response from the barnacle.

huh... I can't find the cap ships in Merope. The one near the star is gone, as well as the one on the surface of Merope 2 A.

quick hypothetical before I self destruct, run home, and test this myself..

an eagle, a viper, and an asp are in the same instance. The Asp is carrying the UA, and drops its. During the UA scan, the Viper is the closest pilot to the UA. The eagle is watching it from third person mode. Which of the 3 ships does the UA emit morse for?

you get morse in entish describing space whales .... duh

Im still waiting to hear what happens when a UA scans a UP...

I don't get the joke, where's the punchline?

Both Merope Capital ships are missing, as well as the ships usually above Earth & Mars in the Sol system. Did frontier forget something? Bug reported.

It's not the same. I have very good hearing and advanced audio analysis software. I can tell when there is a honk under a wail. Trust me, it's not the same.

Also, this hypothesis does not explain the chirps, which are a major component of the audio that everyone seems to be happy to simply ignore.

What I'm afraid of is that this particular hypothesis seems attractive because we're all ready for this puzzle to be solved already so we can move on with our lives. But it does not explain the circle and its particular format of lines very well. It also seems to depend on the message being static in a given system when all the data seems to indicate that the message is not static in a given system.

However, it's nice that it's a testable hypothesis. I'll be as happy as anyone for this to be the real thing. I just doubt that it is.

Well, I see a lot more than two instances of 100. Unless we're saying that - = 1? Is that what we're saying?

OMG THE CHIRPS WHY ARENT WE ALL TALKING ABOUT THIS?!?!
What chirps. Can you be more specific? You mean the big fast loud frequency sweeps that I don't see anywhere in the signal?

Its a perspective puzzle.
THe sphere says the picture needs to be looked at from bottom left perspective, this resolves the symbol.
whats more there are 3 lines - you can make out 1 2 and 3 going down vertically.

1st line 18 AUG
2nd line -11.15
third line - indistinct - im uising higher fidelity audio
i challenge people to look at this image and say there isnt a 1,2 and 3!

Someone look at this and tell me i haven't invented this. i mean its a 1 , 2 and a 3 right.

I don't know if it is a bug. They've been gone since the last update as far as I could tell. I think they are supposed to have moved to HIP 17225 to where the Federation is trying to build an outpost. But I didn't notice an obvious "Capital Ship" target when I was there either, so I don't really know what they are up to.

come on - someone - give it a look and say - rubbish, plausible or likely......

I know, but which ship would be scanned? The closest one? the one that dropped it? or would the one recording it get his own ship no matter what? (as in, does every CMDR hear different morse based on which ship THEY are in?)

Yes they do.

Every CMDR hear different morse based on which ship they are in.

I tried to see what you meant before checking the marked photo and was not successful.

After seeing the marked photo, I see your numbers, but there is too much other visual noise to clearly delineate each numeral. The 2 looks like it trails down into the 3. The 1 could be just a line in the noise.

The circle and lines are obvious, no matter the fidelity of the recording. I don't think your numbers have that same level of unquestionability. Then again some theories that have been shared are probably even less tenable.

So, if I were asked I'd say it's approaching plausible, but needs more evidence. If more writing was found of a similar nature, I think your theory would be strengthened by it.
