to be fair...if we read 25 plus pages a day we deserve more than just a biscuit

In that case I'll have a slice of battenburg and a Lavian brandy please!
(Can't get ingame at the mo, so am forced to keep up vicariously through reading this & the Rift threads)

Yes it is well deserved, just hope the biscuit is the all natural type grown without pesticides :)

Yep, get your Ergot wheat biscuit specials in the canteen at any Canonn centre! it helps with the Science!
 
I don't know how things are where you all live, but my lawn is white, the thermometer is in the 'blue zone' and I have the flu.

Winter is here.

Commiserations, but it's still only Autumn!

So the latest alien crash site?

It was a clandestine meeting between Alliance and Thargoids vessels!

The Federation and Imperials have a military presence in the area and have reason to prevent collaboration.

Just a thought. =p

Based on that assumption I think it's somewhat interesting if you flip the viewpoint. I mean some human factions are friendly, some are not.

It's quite possible Thargoids have similar factions, and if so it could be that the (hypothetical) Alliance/Thargoid meeting was actually ambushed by a Thargoid faction not sympathetic to the idea of Humans and Thargoids getting on!

I suppose I am saying that even if there were evidence of the weapon marks on the T9s being of Thargoid origin, then it does not necessarily mean the Thargoids are the enemy.

Ideally we'd contact the Thargoid equivalent of the Canonn. [alien]

We tried, but they kept getting hiveractive on the biscuits & running off with the sugar cubes
 
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?

I ve gone to Caeli scuti and the system is interesting but how to know its the right one for more ruins.... I can't event find geysers on planets with them so ruins.....

So I was wondering, does anybody know the answer to this please?

Yes you can scan them at every new instance (they might be some time to wait but not that long).
 
[...] I don't even know why you would bother to bring lack-of-evidence to the table, as you don't have any evidence either, just a loose connection.

I obviously cannot speak for Tiayviel but my guess is that he bothered because like you, he has no hard evidence, but unlike you, he did not justify his lack of evidence to advocate banning discussion of the matter here.

Which isn't strong enough to warrant Canonns attention, roleplay or otherwise.

That is your judgment - and that of others here, I am sure - but there are others, like Tiayviel and me, who have a different appraisal of the matter. So as long as we disagree - and I am sure we all agree that we are free to disagree with each other -, surely it is the most sensible course to continue allowing discussion here, right? Discussion is part of science, and like you, I am enjoying arguing about different aspects of a subject.

P.S.: Not every participant of this thread is member of Canonn, and as long as everyone stays on-topic (and since there is no agreement whether the discussion of the CG is on- or off-topic), there is no need (nor a way) to limit this thread to Canonn, right?

I am a white American male born into the middle-class, so i am quite used to the world catering to my standpoint, and all this talk of biscuits is making me feel out of place. Could we all please cater to my needs for a minute here? I am starting to have a panic attack and could really use a cookie.
 
Abondoned alien research base.

Hi CMDR's i found this research base in star system: HR 5991 after scanning some listening posts and triangulate the positione. It is located on the second moon of first planet (HR 5991 1b) lat 33.47, long -2.17. You can find there some damaged abondoned base. There is data link there with some corrupted data and also the strange message: Part 1.„ It was there a few days ago I swear. Doctor Lewis said I'm lucky ot to be fired for dragging them all out here. But it was right here, the proof that they exist. Someone must be messing with me . There is no way taht much data can be corrupted without leaving a trace. This can't be right. There seems to be a signal hidden in the corrupted data. I didn't see it before, and if the data hadn't been ruined I mignt never have seen it... Part.2 I found It, they'll all think I'm crazy but I found it. It's definitely not a natural signal or background noise. I've run evey test I can thinik of and they all confirm it's not natural or humain in origin. .. Part 3. I did it, I told Doctor Lewis and this time I had a proof. Everyone seened really excited about it. Doctor Levis is sending speciial report to command.... Part 4 Cleaner team 26 reporting in. Company Directive 3650 in effect. All data regarding research project under Doctor Lewis is now classified. Al assets have been processed.
Also there are some strange sounds being heard there. Maybe this is this signal. I was unable to find out more, maybe You will.

Awesome find Cmdr!! Will definitely visit the base myself!
 
Has anyone tried to reconstruct the alien vessels using the visible parts from the wreck sites? I don't possess such skills but from what I have seen/read on the threads it may be that someone else does. We could get an idea of size and profile.

Further, the wreck on HIP 17862 looks very organic, could these ships have been grown instead of manufactured?

Yes, a couple of people have done that, with varying degrees of success/believability

I was examining the wreck in HIP 17403 yesterday for quite a while. They (the alien wrecks) definitely look organic, very shellfish-like. I think it's possible that the "ship" is actually a creature of some kind, maybe like the Battlestar Galactica enemy fighters turned out to be alive. Or they could be grown, as you suggest, and piloted by a creature. There are no dead bodies in any of the ships, so it's hard to say if there was a pilot or not.

It's all quite fascinating.

Will Head out there in a little bit, I doubt it will come to anything as so far the listening post stuff has been very isolated.
 
Banning is too strong of a word. I'm trying to establish that it is off topic, and that it should be discussed in it's own thread. (Edit: I also realize that discussion about whether something is on or off topic is off topic, it's why I will not be continuing this)

P.S.: Not every participant of this thread is member of Canonn, and as long as everyone stays on-topic (and since there is no agreement whether the discussion of the CG is on- or off-topic), there is no need (nor a way) to limit this thread to Canonn, right?

I don't know where you think you are. This is a continuation of a long series of threads started by and maintained by The Canonn. This is a Canonn thread, you are welcome to participate. This thread is not a sounding board to push your in game political agenda. Which is what you are doing. You can make another thread for it. There is an entire forum dedicated to CGs. You don't need to have it here. It's wasting space and users time sifting through the .
The loose connection you are making to Thargoids is all to get people here involved.

The other CG which was ACTUALLY ABOUT CANONN STUFF, the Appeal for Ancient Data, was primarily discussed in the CG thread for it. It occupied a page, page and a half, here at most.

Honestly, I'm not to have fun with this anymore. This is the last I am going to say on the subject. If it turns out that I am wrong, and this has everything to do with Thargoids, I will happily eat my words. If it turns out I am right I will gloat about it. So if that is something you want to deal with later....

Take it one step further, the ship needs no pilot, it is a sentient being and bred for missions. UA's could be spawned by the ship as needed for a purpose. There are no traditional exits/entries to the ship that I could see. We could be looking at a scout vessel as it's not very large.

Further, even in its' current state, my ship was scanned on approach so some of the wreck's systems are on-line. If they can scan, they possibly can transmit.

Assume it's a scout, it's on a recce mission, scouts collect information and try to avoid contact with other ships, who knows how many of these are around that haven't been seen.

Good military strategy requires good intel on your opponent, strengths, weaknesses, quality of equipment, concentration of resources, supply lines, political alignments, internal warfare, etc. This rash of finds may be indicative of a ramping up of intel gathering before an overt act.

Are they peaceful or war-like, or maybe as xenophobic as we are? Stay tuned.
