So you want to know about the Formidine Rift? (Part 3)

Beacon 4 (PRU AESCS HW-S B31-2) broadcasted at 0:15 gametime

Doublechecked it, this seems to be the message:

just the last curiosity, in the system PRU AESCS TY-J A64-1 is where the probe is found, and also where the probe message indicates. upon entering the system, i honked the horn but i didn't surface scan ANYTHING.
After having listened to the probe, the scan data of THE MOON OF THE FIRST PLANET, wich is landable, has been revealed to me even if i didn't surface scan it. Probably there's something on the surface.

Out of interest, what's the theory on who is responsible for leaving all these probes leading people around the galaxy to interesting stuff?

Somebody obviously wants it all found, yet is making a game of leading people through puzzles to find it by placing beacons which nobody else is dropping a nuke on to hide the message. Might just be my paranoia, but I have to question the motives of whoever is leading this chase through riddles and puzzles rather than just putting the information out there.

Well if the answer isn't ;) god ;) then my guess would be someone involved with sirius corp. There was that galnet article a month or so ago about Sirius Corp deploying a bunch of deep space probes. That came shortly after the whole Raan Corsen thing too iirc, so maybe something is up?!
 
Second one found in Hawkin's Gap :

Arg! You just beat me to that one!! I got to it at 1 minute after the hour, no signal heard. Now the waiting game or leave and come back at half past.....

Connection error. Well played Frontier!

No signal on the half hour. I'm guessing you have to be at the beacon before the hour hits for it to transmit. A minute or more off and it won't start until the next hour.

Found a third probe in Hawkins Gap:

Started transmission at half hour. Sequence taken directly, some transcription errors:

I can upload the video, but it takes an hour due to file size and my upload speed.
 
About to drop in on Eafots EU-R C-41 C2. Anyone found anything down there?

I mean, hours have gone by, surely someone's found "it" already :p
 
Two quick questions before I consider setting out;

1.) Does it look like there are many probes scattered about those areas, and are you finding them just by looking for permanent USS?

2.) Are the ones being found in areas other players have been through, which might mean these were always there, or do we think they are new?
 
*yawn* Dafuq? what the heck went down? I go to sleep and magically, we have more pages appear in a single night than an entire month?

Now I have to figure out what's been found...

Coffee. I'm going to need . lots of coffee. Toby's Estate, here I come...

I gave up searching the C2 planet after a couple hours and started an expanding spiral search of surrounding systems for additional beacons. It appears there are at least 3 beacons in each target sector.

No magic...just Neutron Stardust ;)

I go to bed frustrated that nothing's happened, wake up and it's all over :)
 
Incidentally, I speculated earlier in this thread that "Heart And Soul" meant between the two nebulas; EAFOTS EU-R C4-1 is indeed at a point where lines drawn from the edges of the two nebula would roughly meet. Damn it, should have taken a risk on that. Had the system already been scanned?

Debating which one to go too... Hawkins gap is furthest away, but my Exploraconda has pretty long legs so I might be most useful there.

I'd share some in my hold, but I pruned everything to get maximum jump range. I can still share the sentiment with something worthy of scooping. :)

That's one of the reasons I decided to head out that way. The NA and Pelican nebulas keep trying to lure me away. Must... resist...
