wow yeah that *is* interesting. if you go to 90x65 lat and long completely jump about and do bizarre stuff, like standing still, running backwards, glitching, going from 65 to 150 in one footstep. It reminds me of those old movies where a pilot would be flying over the Bermunda Triangle and his compass would go all freaky lol. Nothing here though, aside from freakyness

So is Triton, for whatever reason...
I think the "sonic image" is the part we've decoded so far.
Trying not to pick over his words tooooooo much, the message he was quoting was talking about "decoding the transmission", and postulating that perhaps we have "solved" the transmission and decoded its meaning. His response of "you've decoded part of it" and "not everything it contains" (I added the emphasis there) suggests to me that there is more *in the transmission itself*. Audio, visual, data - whatever, I think there is something there we've not found yet, and once we find it the image will help us decode it.

And this makes sense in relation to several other things.And you are missing the core logic that if u take a petunia or a satellite out of its designated spot its still going to try to orient itself the right way but it would be meaningless because it'd in the wrong location.I'm not saying this is right just your logic is wrong. And I like the idea that the head of a UA / up is the transmitter portion so it makes sense to me that they are transmitting both directions
1. The UP has TWO heads. One points towards Merope 5C, the other points to somewhere else
2. MB said that there would be "different information" from a Free Floating UP. The "different information" is where the smaller head points
3. That is why Free Floaters are so hard to find, because they can only be found in a single line from Merope 5c to whereever the other head is meant to point.
As soon as a UP is "taken out of position" it focuses on the "target" (ie. Merope 5c) because the bigger head dominates. A Free Floater is however placed in a position for a reason, that is to be a two-way communicator.
Now, that just leaves us with a sphere circling Merope 5c of infinite radius to search. Get on it commanders!
I like Michael posts. They are helpful like answer "yes" for the question "do you like pizza or lassagne?"

ok, I'll bite- how do you stockpile anything in ED?
Have multi accounts like many of us. The tricky bit is not being sidetracked so that you use your 2nd account to go and do other stuff (as I did, so had to dump my 12 x SAP 8)

ya ive been trying to look at the UA UP as functional objects ... So current theory is the Head is a transmitter/ receiver and the cans are a sensor array . because of its two heads I think the UP is acting as a relay ... But placement is key if they have a purpose. So even though they orient themselves on one object it does not preclude the possibility that they are a link in some sort of chain pointing somewhere else
Yes. So much this.
There are clearly other glyphs in the sonogram other than the circle; the trouble is that they appear to be obscured with noise so we can't make them out to be able to interpret them
or the baranicle symbol?

with some fantasy - yep. But that might be just a random thing, as our brain is trained to recognize patterns (cloudwatching)
Sorry if this has been checked before, can any cmdr who has honked at a UP just check in there inventory under data in case a sneaky data package has been transmitted to your ship. I know you would normally get a message on screen but worth a check.
And you are missing the core logic that if u take a petunia or a satellite out of its designated spot its still going to try to orient itself the right way but it would be meaningless because it'd in the wrong location.
So UAs come from *everywhere* outside of the shell? Or are sending something back to everwhere outside of the shell?
I genuinely can't understand why the last few pages have continued expanding on the idea that the UAs/UPs pointing away from Merope by virtue of the fact they actually point at it is somehow significant.
It's like arguing a coin that came up heads should be thought of as landing tails-down:
Logically accurate to a point; but utterly illogical in the realms of common sense.
I was beginning to think I had gone mad since so many people were arguing against me. I've never been more glad to see you turn up and talk some sense.
I suspect common sense departed around threadnaught 6 for more distant shores, a rum punch, a large striped towel and a beach umbrella
what planet is that ? merope 5 c ?
looks like the parabolic sign in the UP message.
coordinates ?
