As to the more active obelisk at one time. More commanders, more batteries, more energy.

3165 It is discovered that the alien races once indigenous to the Far Colonies region of space have gone. Those worlds that had human colony areas become human worlds as the colonies spread out. Those that did not now stand abandoned. It is surmised that they departed for Galaxy 2, somehow managing to find a method of travelling there. Humanity stands alone once more. [10.3]
So there were indigenous alien races that abandoned sites? Could this have been one of those? What is Galaxy 2? I do not know if this site was part of the "Far Colonies Region" of space. Interesting but....probably not relevant.
X and Y are the two coordinates for the nonogram: check the image on the frontPage: Eravate being the X and Lave the Y.
Charlie is part of the 4C clue.
Wait... there was a wormhole, that connected our galaxy with 7 others? And... it is in current canon..?
CMDR Zaratan found it, Check the FRONTPAGE.
There are three unregistered Beacons playing the same message, being the same starting point for the same hunt (in Sol, Achenar and Gateway).
These three beacons lead to Lave and Eravate, where other two messages were found. These two, depict the system map.
There's also a Clue in the first message: 4C.
OH MY GOD! ITS A PRISM!!!
I can't shake vibes that this was some kind of wormhole generator. I have literally nothing to back that up with but it feels like some kind of test centre to me.
It's interesting to see what the central disk area looks like on the landing scanner when you do this - the ground scanner almost acts like lidar and removes a lot of the ground clutter to reveal the main structural form. Here's some examples of what I saw when doing this:

Not seeing anything in the heat maps (other than the active/inactive pattern).
Hmm, head-scratch time...
From the last couple of pages, it looks like Asterope has been done; Official rescue & cleanup forces are on-site. Maybe a GalNet article or a word with FDev can give us a final nod on this?
Yes, looks like snake skin to me - I have a short video - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/72478750/d.mp4
The fuel is being drained. The fuel is hydrogen that becomes helium. Why does the site use the Helium? Is it a catalyst? I don't recall while being there noticing that the fuel from my ship was being drained. Are our SRV's in some way fuelling the process there? Perhaps that's why there appears to be instancing problems there?
Is there any significance to the symbols on the base of the pillars?

My apologies if this has already been discussed, but I didn't see it mentioned in the summary on the first page.
I trying to solve The Jupiter's Beacon Mystery, but stuck. Lave and Eravates transmissions is nonogram. Unfortunately, this transmissions have many errors.
