Carbon dating only works on organic material. Not sure that would work at this site. You're right about measuring the rate of decay though. If there are radioactive elements at the site then you could theoretically be able to measure their age based on the ratio of the radioactive element to the element that it decays into. Frontier hasn't given us the in-game tools to measure this kind of thing though and I doubt they intend for us to solve it through interrogation.
Hey guys. I've been studying the ruins quite a bit and I think I found something and I'd like help searching the system. If it holds up, I've deciphered a numbering system and possibly the next location.

Screenshots from COL173 KYQ bla - moon 14J:
first one in the direction of Barnard's, clearly showing that the other planets, stars and moons in this system show up in a well defined orbital plane and this is what is displayed in the still from EliteMeet.
Another which shows the close moon 14I on the horizon

Well scanners will pick out the age of the main star. Its not much but planets in the system cant be older then their star can they?
Hi,
I'm not following this thread very actively. Forgive me, if this was already tried...
The ancient relic of the "monolith" is sorrounded by 3 ancient pillars, which are all seperately selectable.
Has anyone tried to "collect" the pillars to make the relic itself collectable?
I just tried it by myself by jumping with the SRV, but no luck.
Maybe this can be done when several players work together.
I think of one CMDR approaches the thing, and when it has risen,
another CMDR collects the pieces with his ship.
Just a thought...
fly safe and keep up the good work.
bye:maak.

Hi, me again.
There'S another thing coming to my mind regarding the "monolith".
There are several of them. I don't know how many.
Has a group of players tried to work together to active them all at once?
Maybe this triggers some new behaviour?
bye:maak.

despite my very sore head I won't bite your head off....
most obvious things have been tried
and if your still on the ground you can shoot the pillars away and the relic falls down and is collectable.....
first pages off this thread summarise all
have fun, watch out for rotters who will shoot you
ps there re 4 pillars

day 4 of the hunt for the incident site begins
for anyone interested ill compile the already found details
found by me and my friend CMDR Selrak Lightner,
by now the system we are looking for is definitely the Asterope system BUT witch star is it is being questioned
we are questioning the star because the gamescom message was most likely edited
the gamescom message most likely been edited and that's why its way brighter also the colours are brighter
it makes it possible that either Asterope a or b if its a then the star been saturated up
if its b then the colour was accidentally changed or maybe on purpose
note: not all stars are that vissible on screenshots sadly,
and because its the same system asterope b ac be lined up perfectly too
for now its gonna take a while to find the site with what little manpower we have for searching

As a completely unrelated questions
To the sound experts out there
I only recently started playing ED with headphones and noticed that the sound the ships scanner makes when making a surface scan of a body has a similar backgound, or under tone or whatever you call it under the swirling sounds and pulses which is similar to the the UAs purrs of morse code, well I think that is what I hear.
Anyone, who has better hearing, and knows what they are doing, dug into that?

Sorry for not replying sooner (boy this thread is moving fast). It's the Lavecon 2016 skin.

Thanks for posting screenshots Rampant, this actually does look fairly close...might give it a closer look tomorrow.
Did you see my previous post about what these were (page 173)? I even put up a nice video. It may with help with decoding these. These number stations need a separate thread.
In the real life number codes, there is a theory that the spaces are the actual code.
I've determined that the brightness of some of the stars is best near Asterope C, so if they ran a light blue filter over the entire shot it would produce roughly the right scene around 250ls away from the star. The stars I'm looking at are 5 stars (only 4 which are visible in all frames of the video, with one just visible in a few frames) here:
With the sun the right size at the other two, the middle star in the 4 is considerably dimmer (on my graphics anyway), but at the C star at roughly the right distance, the middle star is roughly the same as the right hand star (of the visible ones in the clip). As you get further away from stars the middle star becomes brighter than the other one.
I've spent decent time circling at roughly the right spot close to A and C, with less time spent at B....no result yet. Definitely Asterope is the right system though as every star in the trailer is in the sky there in the right spot relative to other stars in the trailer.
So if it's possible to find this from the trailer we'll find it

if its possible we will find it for sure but for now our manpower for the search is way to low and will take way more time to find
also a friend request is welcome from anyone who's searching for this
and just as and extra note the uss's in the system are relay wierd

What do you mean ?
I was there earlier today, as I was leaving I spotted and dropped into a convoy USS. A risky move with a hull full of relics and tablets. It contained 4 seemly random Asp Explorers that ignored me. Nothing more than that, no chatter on the comms or anything. It was just weird to me that it was there to begin with. Probably just coincidence.
