They all need to leave. The Pleiades belongs to us. The explorers, the scientists, the smuglers and even the aliens. Not to them.

For real. What I liked about the Pleiades is it was nice and quiet.
It will swarm with combat ships now. The pew-pew crowd has arrived. :(

Thinking on the decoder ring idea - what if the image is meant to represent something you can rotate? The line on the inside and the two lines on the outside - those two lines, if you extend them out, kinda enclose the symbols around the outside. What if you isolate part of the inside or outside and rotate them around? Perhaps using the 1,2,3,4 symbols as an order.

I've had a beer - and I have no idea what you can do with it if anything but.... anyway.

MB has said that there is more ("different") information from the probes to be found still: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...ad-8-The-Canonn/page131?p=4328228#post4328228

Soooooo - we need more UPs to do more tests :) Back to where we started :)

I feel like he was referring to free floating UPs.

Or instead of an order, the numbers could represent the number of rotations needed.

I think the true occupants of the Pleiades might disagree with you, and with all of us ;)

Key to finding Unknown Planet idea

Sorry if something like this was presented before. While looking for UPs, I encountered planets/moons with large orbital inclinations like Merope 5C so I was thinking the following if the "sonic image is the key". Therefore to solve the UP message, I propose the following steps:

Step 1 (|--): Find planet/moon with orbital inclination between approx
-27.3 deg & -54.9 deg.

Step 2 (-|-): Find planet/moon with singular ring system.

Step 3 (-||): Find planet/moon orbiting larger planet/star with double ring system.

Step 4 (--|): Find planet/moon ground location approx -80 lat & +70 long.
Note squares are 20 deg latitude and 20 deg longitude if looked at like a globe.

Now the question on where to look....Pleiades, Bernard's Nebula, etc.

Could it also be a "Legend" or is that too specific?

The key here is he said the SONIC IMAGE is the key - NOT the UP

Map Key or Legend

A map key or legend is included with a map to unlock it. It gives you the information needed for the map to make sense. Maps often use symbols or colors to represent things, and the map key explains what they mean. Map keys are often boxes in the corner of the map, and the information they give you is essential to understanding the map. Symbols in the key might be pictures or icons that represent different things on the map. Sometimes the map might by colored or shaded, and the key explains what the colors and shades mean.

Just some thoughts on the UP based partly on my last post. Let us say something established a wormhole (or something similar) from somewhere far away. After that it deployed the UAs to have a look around on this side of the connection. Lets say the UAs were simply looking for someone (us) thus the scan. Lets also say the UP is some kind of invitation, key, bait, whatever all with the operation manual included (that we simply don't understand yet). The most likely place to send it would then be where the UAs made contact with someone (us). Based on that i have a simple question: Did lately stay someone with an UA for some time or at least in the same area to wait for something to happen (appearance of an UP)? I couldn't find it on the first page. Maybe i simply read over it.

Raxxla. You're thinking of Raxxla.

I'm of the opinion that these creatures are from the gateway on Raxxla.

So, sorry if this is old news but I did some Googling (yes, and read the FP) and didn't find any mention of it. I just went to check out the barnacle sites on Pleione 11C (at about 2, 180) and was warned off by Empire security forces. Didn't stick around to see what else might bethere.

Just going to throw my 2 cents in. Away from all the usual experimental + data stuff.

Occam's razor.

I think mythology binary, decoding and maths are being used too soon.
Perhaps they should be looked at long after some base elements of the mystery are recognised.

Some statements after removing some complexity..

UA:
- Generally blue/aqua tone
- The UA points to a system slightly off-center from a nebula.
- Ua's are found in a sphere like shape with this system at it's center.
- The UA's Head points at this system
- Within the system the UA's head points at the star.
- UA's transmit morse to our ships,
- The morse currently outputs a drawing of our ship.

We still haven't figured out why it's doing that by the way, what is the intention?
[slight complexity] What else 'points' that we could compare this action to? Could this overall action be some kind of compass?
Does the blue tone have relation to the systems star which is also blue?


(Note I'm leaving some details out on purpose)

Barnacles:
- generally green tone
- Barnacles have been found in and around nebulae, so far.
- Barnacles, when broken, provide meta alloys
- Pirates spotted with meta alloys in hold
- Barnacles are sometimes protected by turrets
- Some barnacles are being overlooked by capital ships
- Barnacle signal yet to be broken, usually three tones and a howling/drilling sound.


UPs
- Generally reddish tone
- Have the head of a UA and also a second smaller head
- The two heads are not aligned, one is offset.
- The large head points to a landable planet within the same system that the UA points to.
- The landable planet that the UP points to is the last landable planet within that system
- The UP is found in convoys, NPCs speak of orbital testing.

Is the reddish tone significant?
In what way is orbital testing relevant?
Does having 2 heads imply something?
Does having 1 head smaller than the other mean something?
Perhaps the planet the UAs point to isn't significant, just the meta of that planet...
-It's the third moon from a star with rings
-The ringed star is the 5th furthest object from the major star.

Finally the transmission:
- distinct elements in the center
- -|-, -||, |-- and --| surround a sphere.
- To the top left of the sphere there is an arc a short distance away from the edge of the sphere
- to the right, 2 short arcs face the sphere
- To the bottom left 2 lines are outside the sphere from the edge outwards.
- To the bottom right one line is inside the sphere, from the center to the edge.
- Sphere generally looks similar to our hud compass
- Other less distinct elements nearby

Is it the right way round?
If you were to take angles, from where would you take them from?
What is significant about the spherical shape? is there anything familiar to it?
What else can be described or visualised as 3 parts? (|--)


That's all I've got simplification wise. I think we might have been overthinking it for too long. I hope this precursor application of Occam's razor is refreshing...

This should be sticked on the front page. The BASICS of what we know. Eveything else is theory. Good summary o7 Cant rep on mobile so have some virtual.

i am here at 500 ly around merope... searching for the usual ghosts...

but suddenly an idea... a shameful idea... such a stupid idea that i don't even want to say it...

if this idea will be confirmed it will be the biggest facepalm moment in the history of the games of all time.

within 30 minutes the answer.. i will tell you any details soon. pls be patient and have mercy of me.
