Been flying around a cheeky little ammonia world out in the NGC 6357 nebula for about... 3 hours now. Nothing here. It's very similar to the one found in the Pleiades. It's even inside the nebula gas. Space madness settling in...


5 hours now, still nothing. I think we can rule out NGC 6357
 
Wait, remember one of the previous live streams was stated that the probes only sing near planets with life. We may encounter an increased chance to find probes near planets with life.

more than 135ly from merope yup

more than 135ly from merope so worth checking but like barnacles in jaques highly unlikley except for the hand of god
 
Theory: UAs are cartographic scouts, launched evenly in every possible directions 140 years ago from Merope 5C by someone looking for ammonia worlds. UPs are the recon element, launched to check possible targets. What are they looking for?. Thargoids?.

So, UAs and UPs are not of thargoid origin, and maybe thargoids wiped out Merope 5C before our arrival.

That's an interesting possibility - that whatever was on 5c is long gone, and the UAs / UPs are just remnants.
 
UP that search Ammonia Worlds, could mean two scenarios:
The Thargoids searching for possible new worlds to colonize,
or someone searching for Thargoids to get in contact or hunt them down. A great possible conflict we are not yet involved.

Got a good idea for the picture. I will print it and use it as a mask. Will show it later with some pictures.

I tend to second that - Yesterday hpooed around there (and Pismis open Starcluster) without getting anything -
nevertheless I keep on looking on my way corewards (same for Barnacles), and if it is only to support the therory that outside UA shell nothing can be found...
 
Isolated & Amplified notes from Unknown Probe

Greetings Commanders,
Rear Admiral Midnight Ninja here again. I've isolated the specific frequencies of the notes emitted by the Unknown Probe when you get in between the probe and Merope. I've also amplified this sound to be more clear against background noise. You'll find a link to that sound below.

I believe we are listening to it beat box...

Added Content: I'm hearing a consistent sounding starting 'note' and an ending 'note' after each small group. The first and last notes always sound the same.
Additional Edit: I'm hearing low, medium, and high note combinations. It sounds like there are 3 notes in each group, either low, medium, or high, with the same starting end ending note.

They are on my back way to Merope. Better to check now than recheck it later.
Besides then we checked Elephant's Trunk nebula for UP more than likely pilots don't fly close to ammonia worlds. And maybe pilot that pointing us there seen UP exactly when scaning ammonia world close to planet.


oh... need to find systems where he been

We don't know yet. I spent a good half an hour at an ammonia world on the fringe of Heart Nebula and nothing, no surprise. But I would think the other barnacle-bearing nebulae would be worth careful scrutiny, if anyone knows of ammonia worlds in or around them.
 
So does that imply we solved the puzzle of the picture?
It looks like it depicts instructions that the probe is following.
From bottom left clock wise:

1. Search for planet
2. Check for atmosphere
3. scan planet
4A. Descend
or
4B. Send data to merope
 
Not sure if reported but theres a capital ship in Pal Sector RO-Q B5-0 (planet 4) while planet 7 fits the bill as an ammonia terristrial with life, ill report if and as soon as i find a unknown probe here.

Theres at least 30 landables in this system to, if we are looking for tip offs or crashed alien ships it could be a high priority system.

And btw this is the first capital ship / convoy beacons outside the nebula ( so barnacles could be there as well) its about 30ly from merope

Anyone got any thoughts its an odd system

Can you tell me if you are looking for any ammonia planets (or other interesting planets with possible life) or only ammonia planets in the specific distance, like shell of UAs?

It isn't just about where but when. Free floating UPs are rare, but far less rare than trying to find a convoy to raid. Additionally the free floating ones will have some different information in them. This is required to advance to the next part. LordZoltan, I'll send you the first UP, and exact timing and co-ords when I can sit and park for a few rotations. Won't be checking the forums much.

Whatever game that is you're playing, the graphics are horrible. I bet it's totally pay to win too...

the whole world is pay to win

One of the federation military outposts is nearby within 15Ly as well which makes it all the more one of those lighthouses to check out.

so far ammonias within the shell ( only 1 confirmed 30ly from merope) a few of us are checking other candidates

it would be nice to know those still holding a convoy UP, if the sound interference while staying between the probe and Merope happens or is just something new.
 
Tried to remove as much background as possible, and isolate just the tweets, this is what I end up with:

tweets.png

I hear four basic elements:

1. a low tweet at 800Hz
2. a high tweet at 1,600Hz
3. a mash of the frequencies between 800–1,600Hz, which sounds like the mid tone
4. a very high mash from 1,600–2,400Hz, which sounds like a Dolphin being fed a fish

There appear to be two basic lengths, a short, and a long. The bits that seem longer look more like consecutive long tweets.
