I will try and better Doc the power drain i was in a A rated DE with a #4 scoop 1 pulse 2 cannons when i went to honk i got the power capacity exceeded i checked on the right panel and i was at 107% (holy cow) my shield's stayed up, im pretty sure this is not normal i will double check when i get home latter today.
Nothing is currently modded on the DE.

Hey!
I'm new in here. I read the forum only this far, but I would like to share a small interest. Today i scanned all stellar bodies in Merope (just why not) and noted a capital ship (FNS IRIS) between 1 a-b (binary moons). Is sitting only there in silence with haulers going in and out. However another capital (FNS LIBERATOR) is near 2 c, and a bunch of ships set out with interesting radio chatter when I arrived from cruise.

Maybe he does not have significance, but I found it interesting. If I know it well there was not on these moons barnacles. something will happen there in the immediate future possibly. but the federation knows something at least (sry for my english)

OK. Thargoids have just started invading Sol, but if it gets interesting I'll let you know.

Baa i just did a mock up of my build

I think i don't usually deploy my hard points so this could be normal the site shows 108% with points deployed, when you honk in SC you don't really deploy your hard-points so you don't see the power hit.

But look closer in nearly every piece of Elite art- clothing, UI, background textures/ features- they all use the triangles in some way, either flat or making geometric shapes.
The alien probes do not use geometric shapes at all, yet these ruins and humanity do.
In Prometheus the Engineers shared the same DNA and had different languages (or their language acted as the root for our modern languages). Perhaps these aliens influenced humans- I thought a relic was found on Mars, I wonder what shape that was?

Well I hate to do it, but I think I'm about to scupper one avenue of scientific enquiry.
Following on from Cmdr Vall, I started to record the patterns the obelisks were making before scanning them so I could match them up with the outcome. I've got 12 videos so far covering Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon and combinations of all 5. I started the videos just as it was at it's darkest and ran it for 2 pulses (in hindsight I should have started running them for 4 pulses, but I'm certain it would make no difference). I noticed one thing.
The patterns are the same for every type of data.
The patterns of the triangles loop on a 4 second pattern, the pulsing of the light happens on a 6 second pattern. They can only align every 24 seconds, but how would you know where the "start" is? I have all 12 videos and can upload them if people do want to download to have a look through themselves. The only other thing I think you could possible do would be to record each of them for 24 seconds (4 pulses) and then not what the sequence is at the start of each pulse, then you could compare the 4 sequences for each of the different types of data. That is also assuming the pattern starts in line with one of the pulses and not the first second they turn on, considering the obelisks light up before the pattern appears and the pattern appears only when you reach a certain distance.
I'm always prepared to be proved wrong, but I'm confident in saying it's one for all.
ps. Oh and it's about to be night time. I knew I should have trusted my instincts when I thought it was days away... years... honestly that's the last time I come for advice
pps. I'm just about to sell 40 ancient relics and 7 Soontil relics at Canonn Institute for the boffins to play around with.

I haven't noticed any power drain the the ancient items but for me whenever I have ancient cargo in my SRV I cannot seem to board my ship or transfer the cargo to my ship. When I drop the cargo it then lets me board my ship.
This would go a long way towards explaining my irrational hatred of nongeometric shapes.
I see everyone talking about landingpads.
However, personally I lean much stronger towards launchpads...and maybe even for 1xtime use only (an evacuation?).
The biggest pad has 3 clamps, that hold back a vehicle untill enough thrust has been build up...then explosive bolts release each clamp, and off she goes pretty much like you can see at rocket launches from today.
Agreed. Those big, angled pillars on the circular mounds certainly look like hold down clamps.
For comparison:
Here's a look at the SpaceX Falcon 9 Hold-Down Clamps that are used to hold the rocket in place before launch.
And the image Rizal provided of the 'landing pad' on the front page!
I see some similarities here.

The same way Joel and folks search right now for the 2nd site.

those people. Now you can't play for a while, because you get destroyed at X-site. And didn't even see who it was, because after I was killed in SRV game crashed...
This is possible also but this planet does not give the impression that it was ever a garden paradise hehe, but one thing seems certain this port could launch one BIG SHIP seriously BIG...
