Yes to both, Around Merope 5 C, and possibly a USS between there and the asteroid belt. I forgot why I went there. I think in search of the stuff needed by engineers.

In any event, I am on the other side of the cosmos, making my way to SYNUEFE XR-H D11-102 1 B now, with a specialized Cobra IV to conduct some testing and alignment measurements at the site.

Currently bumbling around 5c myself looking for signal sources. Found only 2 over the course of 30min so far, nothing green :)

Most interesting thing so far has been this rather battered looking sidey, no evidence of anything alien though...

I've seen the same sidey in a degraded emission uss level 0 at HIP 17694
Got legacy firmware from big wreck scan and thatd it...
Now in Asterope looking for uss but nothing so far
 
Here's the bit I can't figure out - the number of unplaced 1s in the x-axis is 23; whereas in the y-axis it is 25.

Yes, that is the problem! Transmissions have errors. One is "6655555" instead of "6155555" or "655555". White dots in my nonogram is UNSOLVED part.
 
Further to the SRV fuel drain at the Item locations, has anyone else found they cannot refuel their SRV after visiting?

After running low on fuel at the relic site, I docked at Exiphary (spelling may be off, closest station to Site) and had the SRV refuel message as well as manually refuelling the ship, but on next deployment my SRV was still Critical on fuel reserves.

yeah same thing happend to me checked it off as a bug. but maybe it s not.
 
I'm sure it's a random respawn in the USS's around there, and MAIA as well. I found it in a USS marked 0 Threat, with a few other interesting objects which I retrieved. As a rule of thumb, scan all remains of ship hulls and data beacons. I was also wondering if a cargo retrieval limpet would retrieve the data module, as opposed to just scanning it? They do look as if they can be removed.

I only found two signal sources on my lunch break, so no luck here so far.
 
I find it odd that the whole site looks like it does. Without erosion or wind I find it hard to believe that this place has since been 'buried' by rock and dirt and stone. Unless this planet once had atmosphere and lost it.

if as some speculate the rings and clamps were for massive ships.......when they took off there may have been sufficient blast to erode the structures and blow down the walls......what might be the thing to be solve from the remains is what direction these ships took off in

Further to my point about the ground ejecting items, I just came across a totem that was about 5-10m away from the boulder pile so it was not being kept in place by the boulders. I'm also getting very suspicious of the glowing ground under the boulders - it reacts to your presence irrespective of whether there is an item there or not.

I'm also noticing that whenever I'm near the glowing ground, my SRV fuel seems to go down quite fast. Donning my very best tinfoil hat, is it possible that the items are being used as lures to get us to come close so that our SRV energy can be siphoned away? Part of me hopes this is true, the other part of me is a bit concerned about the implications of what I'm currently driving over...

someone with patience bring a T9 full of fuel and drop it onto these stains...lets power this up baaaaaby
 
Remember that sites like this are meant to explain the Drake equation Paradox of the empty (of Sapient Spacefaring life) Galaxy

Except that the two major breaks in the outer walls are blown inward rather than outwards...

I have an idea of trying something: bringing over canisters of hydrogen and jettisoning them near those glowy green ground spots.
 
Just some late night thoughts, crazy maybe lol... been pondering about this whole new discovery all night, so the whole thing seems like a machine that could be powered up... what if we need to place -back- the alien commodities on this terrain/machine? Ancient tablet, orb, urn, totem, casket and relic... All descriptions are very vague and also the word 'purpose' comes back a few times. e.g "The orb appears to be a mechanical device, although no one so far deduced its purpose" also for the tablet: "A carved tablet with ancient ruins engraved upon it. Although it looks like a decorative item, it might have another purpose" and even the casket "An ancient stone casket. Its purpose is not clear and it is sealed shut". Its definitely being pushed how they got a purpose! other than sell them ; ) I also feel these items to be religion themed or at least some beliefs systems... an urn and casket? I hope we aren't in a graveyard lol! I'll try to look into it....who knows!

And an extension of that, the Fermi Paradox with a superpredator that destroyed all these other civilizations. I'm hoping for that anyway. Maybe they even chased the Thargoids out of their home system and into witch space.
 
Been at this for several hours tonight out here at Site 1 with several others trying to do our amateur sciencing/sleuthing/investigating.

I think for the OP: The segments of obelisks should be named or numbered on the map, in my opinion.

Here's what I've/we've found tonight:

1) The site seems to "honk" three times similar to how a D Scanner sounds but not quite.
2) The site rumbles low.
3) It appears the green glowy spots on the ground near where artifacts pop up slowly drain SRV fuel.
4) There's two breaks on the outer perimeter "walls" that are blown inward.
5) The triangular patterns on the holographic obelisks are the exact same between each obelisk from what we can see.
6) Out of all of the artifacts, only the relic glows very brightly.
7) There are four antenna that craft relics; there are four segments of obelisks.
8) Many of the obelisks are scarred and or knocked over/blown into chunks, further indicating an attack/fight.

Here are the questions I have:
1) Why is this outpost/site/station/whatever on a non-atmospheric moon with very low gravity?
2) Is there any significance to it being on a moon near a ringed gas giant?
3) If this is a structure or perhaps even giant spacecraft that's covered/buried, how can that be possible with no atmosphere?
4) If it is buried regardless of atmospheric conditions, why are the "roadways" at the obelisk segments not covered?
5) Is the large, flat round area we call "the landing pad" actually a landing pad?

That's as far as we've gotten so far. For me, it feels like a situation where this was an outpost of some kind, perhaps military, and suffered a fatal attack, that occurred a very very long time ago. The outpost is in very low power mode. The relics seem like batteries to me, put simply. And the totems/caskets/other artifacts are perhaps parts of machinery or components used in certain spots at the site which have yet to be determined.

That's my 2 cents on it, at least for what it's worth.

100% with you on this, although I think the terms "urn" and "casket" might be generic ways of differentiating the objects for our own recognition rather than them being specific to that kind of object (they may not actually contain the ashes of the dead or the dead themselves).

Can anyone from Frontier check the numbers we're using for the nonogram puzzle (as seen on the first page of this thread under Jupiter Beacon)? There's a mistake in there somewhere, but we've checked and rechecked the recordings, and we've transcribed them correctly. It'd really help us finish solving this puzzle if we had the right numbers.
 
I trying to solve The Jupiter's Beacon Mystery, but stuck. Lave and Eravates transmissions is nonogram. Unfortunately, this transmissions have many errors.

Impressive what ideas people have...
The two (2x3) blocks between the sun and planet 1 might not be pure errors, but denote astroid belts/fields. But the numbers are all over the place there.
No idea about the bottom part, but with 3 repetitions that does not look like an error, but intentional.
