nonono too much going on for it to be just a suppository for data and engineering materials.

well that depends if FD are trying to speed things up a bit.
It better be!! I'm here since mid day, scanning, trying things and hoping for something to happen...if not by player input, by a random event or something like that.
so... i take it UP's and ua's have been taken there and honked at and such......
Do us a favour and line the glyph up so that the radius vector line is vertically downwards, please.
Cheerz
Yep, this. Also, I don't think it worked as intended, and i also do think that there's value in figuring out how it was supposed to be solved
Er yeah can do give me a mo.

You can guarantee that's not how they wanted it to work, but that's what happened.
Look on the front page.
Are we sure that these ruins arent anything other than just some varied content to get scans and loot? The scans just go in your data tab (and the description just says that engineers can use them), some of them aren't even rare. The loot is all pretty low cost too. I mean, I don't doubt that there is a story to be worked out from it all, but I'm worried people might be thinking that they can do something at the site.
Yes it makes sense, four blues - four commanders - a wing. IIRC someone mentioned earlier a wing symbol appearing on a structure.
I have an idea. This needs teamwork but unfortunately I didn't find anyone cooperative enough on site 
. As you can see below, when someone is close in srv to set of those structures, one triangle highlights on the top (and there are 9 triangles). So my idea is that maybe there is some pattern in what highlights, but visible only from above, so it is needed to check all those sets of structures (sometime contained in triangles but sometimes in rectangle, etc.) and see the pattern. What do you think?
And one more thing: some of this thingies are destroyed, so maybe that also means something.

As requested.
I'd be more inclined to rotate the spectrograph image 90 degrees clockwise. To my eyes that would line up a little better.
i was heading to maia to continue my research but now that chaos has ensued the system i need to get my conda
after that i'm gonna sit near gas giants and stuff to see if there are any new uss-es

If this site is a circuit, the UP EMP thing could do something....
Or we can instead think that maybe FD aren't silly sausages and know full well that we will do this kind of thing with any promotional material. Knowing that they put something specific in which was supposed to be found that way. The alternative would be to put something in the trailer which *wasn't there* in game, which would clearly lead to a lot of players wasting time finding it. Some would likely be frustrated to find they had been following wild geese and all would ultimately be disappointed to some degree and become less motivated to follow puzzles in future.
There are other mysteries in game that aren't going to be solved from a trailer. This one probably was and likely was intended to be. That does not diminish the others.
