Hey has anyone tried doing a perpendicular bisector of all the systems in the human bubble between Lave and Eravate? Of course that's a lot of systems, it's just that it's all we have to go on unless we can find a third satellite emitting the same code that we can triangulate from. When I can get on ED later I'll have a go and see if anything interesting comes up.
 
Has anyone else found a USS with the pore Cmdr in the cobra who was blown up by an alien ship?

Cmdr Richard Daystrom has run across one and i know Cmdr Zaratan is currently searching for one in the Merope system.

I could not add anything to what others have tried at the ruins site and the Code stuff is far beyond me...hey the galaxy needs ditch diggers too ; )

I was planning on heading to Merope but it also "seems" like this USS although very cool to find doesn't offer anything else than the ones in the game before 2.2

I just wanted to check first if this is correct before spending time searching when i could be helping search for something elsewhere

after a week of searching for im taking a brake from it
sadly there is way to much to search and too few cmdr's
also merope is the wrong system for it

Do you mean Cetus Bane's cobra that carried the Earth relic? https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/257176-Persistent-USS-what-the-mystery-behind-it
 
Yep, just did that - not sure they make sense though and there is the assumption they are all positive

00010010, 000010000, 001010001
18, 16, 81

00001000, 001000000, 100010000
8, 64, 272

001001010, 101010100, 001010000
74, 340 , 80

The Ba Po system is at -18.125 / 16.5625 / 81.78125, but there is no information on bodies on that system.

The others don't seem to match any known systems and it probably doesn't make sense that 2 lines of the code would not be used in any way in the solution?

OK along with these 3 sets of co-ords we have also had 85, 930, 88 come up today as well. I have gone through and checked all four sets of co-ords for all possible plus and minus sign variations, assuming that this is centered on Sol. I haven't found anything at any co-ord, although -18, 16, 81 is close to Ba Po. However Ba Po is not an exact match, it's 1 or 2 points out, and Ba Po doesn't look like the system we are looking for.

I would be quite happy though if someone else wanted to double check these as I could always have missed something.

My raw results behind the Spoiler.

Then it could be Ba Po!

Attempt to allocate all ambiguous, including the belt.

Thx. I fiddled around with various solutions, but the only one that actually works seems to be the one CMDR TehnoMag presented. That is, if the Asteroid belts are symmetrical, at least.

EDIT: Ok, found another, but that one doesn't look too convincing to me:

Zoom into the last pic in your post ( https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/300054-Alien-archeology-and-other-mysteries-Thread-9-The-Canonn?p=4713358&viewfull=1#post4713358)

The part of the channel at the top of your pic is separated from the lower part; if you look at the top part of the arms of the "U" channel it looks to me as though on each side there is an inset metallic hatch with blue "fluid/energy" marking the corners of the hatch.

Sorry, can't figure out how to post an annotation to your picture to clarify what I mean

I see where you mean now. That Blue marking appears on a number of parts of the Channel. I will get a closer pic when I am next on, but it might not be until tomorrow. If anyone else can grab a closer pic and see what they think, then please feel free.

How many channels do we have? If it's four then we should take each ancient relic and do our best to jettison it on the channel. I I'll try and do that tonight
 
The numbers are a nonogram: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...9-The-Canonn?p=4713700&viewfull=1#post4713700

Chuck that in Excel if you fancy solving the nonograme yourself.

Alternatively, you can bung the following string (which is the same sequence converted into a JSON string) into http://a.teall.info/nonogram/ (via the "Load" button).

That website also features a "Solve" button if you get bored of trying to solve it yourself (although be warned - my lowly browser has spent the last 20mins trying to "solve" it and hasn't got very far yet).

Code:
{"ver":[[0],[6],[1,1,1,5,5,5,5,5],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,3,1,1,1,1,3],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1],[1,1,9,9,9,1,1,9,1,1,7],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,3,1,1,1,1,3],[6,1,5,5,5,5,5],[0],[1,1,1,1,1],[0],[1,1,1,1],[0],[1,1,1,1],[0],[1,1,1],[1,1,1,1,1,1],[1,1],[1,1,1,1],[1],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]],"hor":[[0],[6],[1,1,1],[1,1],[1,1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1],[1,1,1,1],[6],[1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1,1,1],[0],[1,1,1],[5],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[5,1,1],[1],[1,1],[1],[5,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[5],[1],[0],[1],[5],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[5],[1],[0],[3],[1,1],[1,1,1,1,1,1],[1,1],[3],[0],[1],[5],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[5],[1],[0],[5],[1,1],[1,1],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1],[1,1],[1,1],[5],[0],[1],[3],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[1,1,1],[3],[1],[0]]}


Update: it's given up trying to solve it and now just says "Bad luck" :(

also merope is the wrong system for it

Ooops Ghostt i forgot to add you. I knew you and Zartan were searching in Asterope but then Richard said he had found one in the Merope system. Zaratan headed there and last i heard he hasn't been lucky enough to find one Yet

Can someone check if a star system exists for me? (I Can't get near pc or xbox for ages).

I've been playing around with the bottom left permutations & I think I have one that, when converted from braille, reads as AO UX A78 (looks like a system designation to me)

I tried with hyphens and all sorts of spacing changes ... nothing .... but it does look promising.
 
Anyone tried to remove the sand with mining lasers? Or power the structure, which reminds me of a light-lock, with mining lasers?

I wonder if the relics and orbs and stuff are items that need to be replaced in their original setup to activate the lock.

Some other Shots. I think you can see them a bit better http://imgur.com/a/OcPI6

Also, i'm wondering if anyone has thoughts about this: http://imgur.com/a/fGNqN

Have you ever seen two Obelisks powered directly side by side and the antenna completely powered down and NOT retracted into wherever it came from?
