Some of the ships appear to have damage from weapons fire.

That's because they're re-using USS assets. Go look for Combat Aftermath and Degraded Emission USSes and you'll see the exact same ships. In the case of the former, often the damage will have glowing damage effects, but not always.
 
I dunno, you spend one day playing another game besides ED and you miss yet another discovery!

I am sure it's already been said but a crashed alien vessel along with 3 T9s and 2 Anacondas???

And food cargo scattered around???

It doesn't make much sense, the first thought is to call it a food shipment for one of the Pleiades bases but the wreckage is further out than the furthest known base, meaning there's nowhere it could have been carrying food to!

And the weapon's fire? It implies a fight, but between the aliens and the Condas/T9s? Or did a third party ambush both?

If it was a battle between the alien vessel & Condas then it might be a clue as to how strong this particular class of alien vessel is?


As an aside I so so wish Frontier had put some skeletons in the T9 cockpits!

It's the little details guys. :)

It's always the little details, yes. Having been on the development side of things in gaming, I can tell you that things are always done with purpose. Always.

And as far as what we see in the apparent aftermath of this vessel, it might be a fight between our human vessels vs. this alien vessel. It could've been all of them fighting against a 3rd party that won the fight.

PSA if you use ecms around the ruins let the other commanders know, otherwise they freak out and think the ruins are affecting their ships. muahaha

Maybe they are all the result of meeting the same ships as the shipwrecks......;)
 
The that goods are insectoid and they will pay for the crashed anaconda and t9s obviously. (Could be talking nonsense but...)

I think you might have missed the point. The Canonn does not dictate what it's pilots can and cannot do. That is up to the Pilot.
While the Canonns primary interest is in hunting Aliens, Exploration, and Science, we also do detective work here and there for other things.

The CG is not Alien related nor is there any more detective work to do. If anyone wants to participate or UA bomb the city, that is up to them.

What I am saying is, discussion of the CG doesn't belong here in the thread. I understand that we don't have anything else to discuss at the moment.
But our active discussion and involvement legitimizes this as an Alien/Ancient/Thargoid thing to users less involved or informed.
I've already read one post from a user thinking the CG is about a revolt against the "Guardians"(colloquial term for the creators of the Ancient Ruins).

Many will be sorely disappointed when the CG completes and no one saw an Alien.

Although this particular CG only shows on the local system map, the only people who would know about it would be readers of this thread, so it would seem to have been explicitly aimed at this thread's readers.
 
the coordinates for the multiple ship wreckage on HIP 17403 A 4 A seemed to have shifted slightly from the earlier post. I managed to find the right crater that was shown in the video by gaining altitude and locating it. The updated location is -34.98 lat / -141.41 long.

It was solved in another thread in DD and was discovered nearly 3 hrs before the transmission by accident by an Xbox user, aswell as Inara listing it. While still a small part of the community, its hardly limited to just this thread.

There was clearly an impact between this T9 and the alien ship. Part of it is lodged in the hull .... so they were chasing after each other to say the least.


Or the T9 crashed into already crashed alien ship. There is no evidence of one crashing into another in "air", there is only evidence of one crushing into another on the ground. Nevertheless, a good spot. All the wrecks in such proximity definitely have a story to tell.

I "may" have something and i want to share to see what everyone thinks. If found plausible then others can come help search.

If you take the points of the 4 Beacons at the Alien Ruins they match up to the Caelum constellation with Alpha Caeli and Gamma Doradus being the main stars.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caelum

I am currently in the Gamma system because there is Class Y Dwarf with some landable moons that are identical to the one in Synuefe.

So tell me what you think and if i am wasting my time...and if not then come over here and lets find this thing!

It's close but the configuration of the beacons is a mirror image of Caelum. That could work though. If you could lay Caelum down on the surface it would leave an imprint as a mirror image of what is seen in the sky. The angles seem a bit off though. Maybe that is how Caelum looked when the site was built? What does Caelum look like from the site itself?
 
Do you mean what it looked like from the Ruins on Synuefe? Sorry but I don't know.... i have been doing other things since being there and from time to time comparing constellations to the placement of the beacons, artifacts and obelisks

Yes. If you held a sheet of tracing paper to the night's sky and traced the four main stars of Caelum on it and the laid the paper face down on the surface of the Earth the "dots" of each of the stars would end up roughly in similar locations to how the beacons are laid out at the archeological site. The angles aren't right though.
