Just humour me for a sec guys...

What if what we are looking for is a "Mobile" platform on Merope 5C? Like a giant SRV? How would that change your outlook on the image? Something that's looking for something on the surface?
 
Approx. Coordinates are in one of my previous replies. Thank you.
18.3003°
-41.3711°

I'm sitting here at your stated coordinates now. Saw nothing on ship's scanner on way in, and nothing on the SRV scanner now either. Nothing in particular on Mark 1 Eyeballs either. Coordinates are for Merope 5 C, right?

Anything in particular we should be looking for?

That would make those aliens the most complex and stupid of technological races ever existed in the multiverse.

As I stated before, the POI may have shifted, as it did after I was forced to restart. Would be wise to move out from the area in concentric circles above 2.5 kilometers until one resolves itself. If nothing occurs for you, I will try the area at the same time tonight. It could be time-based, that is, if it can only be seen when the crater is in darkness. Yes it is Merope 5c. I have video of the POI but was unable to upload in time before work. It was at the bottom of one of the deep craters within the megacrater.

Cracked my ass laughing at that one... but yep... their probes dont seem to be very "Pro active" lol

Edit- maybe their invisible to make up for it!

I am probably saying something that has been said many times before, but then I must have missed it and it is probably at the top of the first page.
If the purrs are rendered as horizontal/vertical bars, it is more obvious that they can be thought of as encoding a ternary signal: the number of horizontal dashes between vertical bars being the digits:

l l - - l l - - l - - l - - l l - - l - l l - - l - - l - l l - - l l - l - - l l - - l l - l - - l - l - l l

would be

I cannot think of any use to it, but I like it very much!
It could explain why there never are three of the same in a row...

Educating ed is currently on live stream on YouTube. He has 6 probes currently. Let's see what happens!

Would be nice if someone could post here if something relevant happens during the stream ;) I cannot see it.

Interesting, but why have 2 vertical bars next to each other?
 
Ed has SIX UPs - outrageous :D

The only other occurrence of the distortion around the UAs and UPs that I can think of is during the start of the FSD jump sequence...I believe they are multi-dimensional, or partly reside in witchspace etc

I knew you had said it shifts, but I wouldn't have thought it could shift so far as to leave scanner range. It sounds like a bug I encountered with the capship over Merope 2 A that had no ship at its POI, and the POI kept moving away from me. It was kind of funny, actually.

Anyway, flew a few circles around the area, and no POI came up. Will have to investigate further when I have more time this evening. Hope you have better luck.

Thank you for doing the groundwork. I will try to replicate later tonight. Possibly IS a bug. Time will tell, whatever the result.
