Lots of clues but we can't work it out and many of us are coming up with some pretty ludicrous theories (I don't mean to offend cus I've come up with some crazy ones myself haha).

Yes, you are right, my mind usually comes up with a ludicrous theory (like a few pages ago) :) when I am thinking at ludicrous speed.
Better to take a step back, slow down and look at the known facts.
 
Ok, lol.
Yes, agree that was an over thinking moment.
sometimes my brain has a tendency to do that.

Something else I didn't notice before tho.. during the encounter a continues signal ping beings to occur,
it's regular and does alter slightly from time to time.

It's starts at 0:39
what is that? perhaps it's nothing, maybe just a proximity warning... tho it seems a little strange, all our systems are down.

That sound sounds clear enough to analyze it, and if FD put a sound for us to find something on it that could be it. Has anyone tried to find something on it?. I'd do it myeslf but I'm completley lost on sound decoding :( Good find CMDR

Because UA and UP have different origins: one is from Oresians who want to help/warn us, the other is from Kalaxians wo want...well.. you know.... Right? :D

EDIT:

Think this: if you do things that others can understand/read you are implicitly telling them they can know what you are doing, and that you are of no harm to them... I mean, the UA is doing its own things, but we can see what it is doing cause it's transmitting in a language we can understand = Nothing to hide.

Or, as I said in my list of options:

Its simple. Would you try to communicate by using the same method as you did to kill people during a war?
It would probably stop any forms of communication for the forseeable future if you did that.

Sorry I didn't quite follow. What method? Hyperdiction? They're still doing it!

I mean IF (and it is still an if) they predominantly exist in hyperspace, it may be disadvantageous to them to bring us into normal space, where perhaps we are more comfortable than them. So why would they do it, rather than scan us in hyperspace itself? As M.Volgrand suggested, perhaps it is deliberately for our safety, and / or the technology is too limited or unstable to control, so they must also rely on normal space to scan us. They may have to do this quickly before they or their ships take too much damage.

What if they are not looking for something but for someone?
Any famous characters that the aliens would like to aquire?
Has any characters vanished in less than clear circumstances lately?
Or have there been a string of disappearanches that are given signifigence in the lore?
We cant really presume that they havent popped by for a visit before this

Let's see if ex-President Halsey disappears into the strange lights again ;)

Cmdr Salome???

Or they are returning Bill Hicks :p

Thye're probably sick of Goatboy :D

Tis very easy to get lost in the imagination, sometimes you do have to give yourself a shake haha
 
The fact that these hyperdictions are roughly within the shell radius means there's still something there to be found, that's been blissfully ignored.

It's a pretty not so subtle way of FDev saying, "Hey... it's over HERE!"

I thought about that the other day, and I agree... and for some reason totally unknown to even myself,
I am currently in the California Nebula. lol

Ah, yes, I see what you mean, but equally there seems to be a cloud of gas that the ship then moves through which could also potentially account for the distortion.

Having watched it all again closely, there's distortion behind the thrusters too, but there's also what for want of a better word look like vapour trails, so that distortion could also potentially be accounted for by gas/plasma.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying there definitely isn't gravity manipulation going on, I'm just saying that I don't think there's enough things without other plausible explanations to say there definitely is gravitic manipulation.

Fair point. I was watching videos altering colors to eliminate gas/vapors as a cause for lights distortion. I stumbled over dissertation about gravity vortex used for high speed propulsion in space. Everything matches. At least for me. :)

EDIT: during the scan, one can see (depending on the quality of video) space dust flying from around CMDRs ship towards the alien.
We dont see the range because radar is off, but I do not see distance increasing between them visually.

Btw, need someone with better eyes then mine. Does alien ship jumps into the portal or the portal drags it inside?

Huh? I thought they pulled people out of hyperspace and into witchspace to gank their asses

Guys, just noticed something: Is it me or the sound the UA emits is very different than usual? Can someone confirm?

On a side note: I am collecting all theories and observations the Hyperdiction database I built Feel free to check it out and put them to a test!
Soontill relics had crossed my mind too. I was going to test this tonight if RL doesn't get in the way. Unless someone beats me to it, I'll report back later with results.

It's not something I've come across, what were the principles of it?

When I was watching the one that the spectograph had been pulled from a few pages ago, it looked like the ship flew into the portal under it's own power - I think the 'jump' is an optical illusion though. When I was watching closely there didn't actually seem to be any jump or sudden acceleration of the ship, it just flies steadily into the portal and then once it's inside the portal suddenly closes.
 
My brains... are going into my feet! hahaa
Classic movie man.

It's a good thing you were wearing that helmet!

Had forgotten how good it was, rep for the Ludicrous Speed reference!

There's an interesting looking constellation if you pop out the far side! :)
 
Has anybody thought to try picking up a UA somewhere in the bubble and jumping around a bit? Granted, I realise that the UA isn't strictly necessary but for me it definitely seemed to make a difference. If we got CMDR A to transport a UA to CMDR B, for B to then pick it up and dance through some systems, do we think they would get aliened closer to "home"?

Thank you for the tip, I will check that out, may have to also watch that movie again pretty soon. :)

1st point: I found a UP at Pleiades Sector KC-V C2-6 1 (Ammonia World)

2nd point: I had the scare of my life as there was a video of the UA sound playing in the background while I was Alt+Tabbed from ED supercruising and reading the forums. Suddenly I hear the music from the encounter and a loud roar so I immediately alt+tab back to elite. Guess what, it's stuck. So I try again, and again, hearing the alien craft approaching. Finally I manage to get to the game and... Nothing. Turns out the video ended and autoplayed to an encounter video (which I didn't notice). God the pulse.

3rd: I combined the signal spectrograph from the UP (currently in my possesion) and the video from this post. It should be semi-synchronised (25seconds taken from both). The wavy part is similar (but faster in the UA signal). Anyone sees anything?
