Maybe by using the notes in the intro (number em 1,3,1,3,1,3,2,4 etc) gives the activation sequence for the obeliscs?

More likely that the part of the resulting spectro passing the center of the circular superstructure idents the main stars color?

Yes, that's what I meant - just don't have any astronomical knowledge to be able to say it!
 
Thanks for clearing that up!
I took one of them far away from the base and you are right. it suddenly shows up.

The same time I took a relic with me and noticed something while staring at it:

Is it pulsing morse?

I've converted your video to a waveform, which may make it easier for the 'morse friendly' folk to see if there is anything in it.

Implying we are wasting our time ?
Maybe the last track, 'Eclipse' is more of a clue ? any eclipses likely to be visible from the base?

Well more like some of the lyrics just sound very relate-able to our predicament with the ruins: "Digging away the moments that make up a dull day,(archealogoical dig) ...Peeking around on a piece of ground in your home town waiting for someone or something to show you the way(wondering what it all means?)"

Or in the song breath "Leave, don't leave me, choose your own ground" (maybe take the artifacts to a more human planet?)

another quote
"
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
When I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire"


Maybe I've been sipping on too much tranquil tea but I think my next move is to land on mercury and see if the objects have any sort of reaction
 
"hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way" as an English man I love this line.

Also in Breathe: Dig that hole, forget the sun ...

but then in Time:
So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way ...

Anything special about the star in that system ?
 
OK ... third time posting this. I will give up after this one, but it keeps getting buried in Pink Floyd quotes

I have an idea that i think is worth checking into. We are speculating that the nonogram may be linked to the Formidine Rift in some way, and the nonogram is complete aside from the portion of it that states what area to look in for the system.

What if we already know the name of the system from a previous clue? Rifters are already searching an area tirelessly for confirmation to a vague clue. It is the area EAFOTS and it comes from when Salome's cobra was decommissioned and it sent out a final message. Perhaps we should look on EDSM.net and peel through the system data in EAFOTS and see if we have a system that matches. Even if we search EAFOTS for any system with a celestial body 4C.

Can anyone help me look into this using the JSON file from EDSM? Any help would be great.

I looked on EDDB yesterday for systems with a 4c body in them. They haven't got all systems by any means, but none that are listed match ours. I've been back to EEDB today, but their search bar is working differently for some reason.

If you can give me some pointers/links to use of the EDSM json, I'd be happy to help.

Should we jetison the casket into sol or lay it on mercury facing sol?

EDDB might even be better! if you go to the Other tab at the top then click on API, you can download files of the whole system and search manually. I'm trying now.
 
I would like to help but don´t really know how. Is there anyone who could issue some orders for what planets that need to be looked at or anything else they need help with? I´m too much of a beginner to know where to get started my self. Thank you in advance.

You crazy diamonds need to think a bit more 3-dimensionally.

Our pyramid is a tetrahedron, not a triangular prism.

There would still be a light separation effect, but it would have a vertical deviation as well as a horizontal one:

Bear in mind that EDSM will only have information on systems that have been explored & reported to EDSM, which may npt be the case for this nonogram system.

there are 500+ pages of EAFOTS systems to be search...
 
It could be that FD have handcrafted a cave for us to explore, I'm not really sure about the limitations of the cobra engine but it would be pretty cool

Frontier’s current planet engine can not do horizontal displacement, only vertical. That’s why you will never see cliff faces that go back under themselves for example. Rendering actual caves is currently impossible for the procedural engine to produce. NOW, that being said, could a handcrafted cave exist in the game? I’m honestly not sure about that one, but I would have to say that I do believe it’s a possibility from a graphical game engine rendering point of view.

Yes, but before 2.2 ing Betty would only say it when you deployed your SRV, not at random places on the planet. So, maybe it's normal for her do it in 2.2, or there could be something else at play that we haven't figured out yet.

Since 2.2 the SRV seems to occasionally repeat the warnings no matter where you are. I’ve had it repeat the low grav warnings on many random planets, so I don’t think it’s ruin related, just either an odd new feature or a general bug for all low gravity planets.
 
Can I ask a question about the nonogram, which may well be stupid, but is glaringly obvious to me. Why is the vertical (yankee) going horizontal and the horizontal (X-ray) going vertical?

I was thinking the same thing earlier today, ended up looking at the nonogram with my head tiled 90 degrees. Still looked the same - just made my neck ache. But I did wonder if it fitted any of the patterns on the artefacts to help out with the unsolvable part.
 
True, but rifters have been out there for months mapping EAFOTS, thanks to your efforts, so i thought it would be worth checking.

Bear in mind that EDSM will only have information on systems that have been explored & reported to EDSM, which may npt be the case for this nonogram system.
 
I looked at the bodies.json file:
$ jq . bodies2.json | grep -i 4c
"name": "Saffron 4c",

Only 143148 bodies in there anyway.

Doing: jq . bodies2.json | grep -i " 4 C"" | wc -l
Answer is 324 examples are:
"name": "Outorst AK-I d9-8 4 c",
"name": "Eoch Pruae SJ-R e4-2323 A 4 c",
"name": "Hegeia HL-B c27-2 A 4 c",
"name": "Praea Euq BQ-X d1-3 4 c",
"name": "Col 359 Sector TX-T d3-157 ABC 4 c",
"name": "IC 2602 Sector MX-U d2-4 4 c",
"name": "Smojue OT-G d11-5 4 c",
"name": "Dryooe Prou FQ-Y d381 4 c",
So not very helpful I think.
