Alien archeology and other mysteries: Thread 9 - The Canonn

[Xenia_K]

if you're willing to help me disprove it. I've added a second hypothesis.



Added a bit to it. I mean with the distances understood and what the angle means. It may allow us to figure out how far the long vertical wall is pointing at. I reckon It's pointing at another ruin somewhere.

sry nice idea, BUT:
I chcked the distances (triangulating from GALMAP) I get XR-H d11-102 -> Maia around 558 Ly and Centar of CalNeb -> 1107Ly - thats a ratio of nearly 1:2.
Transposed the ration in Log(10) its CalNeb 3.04, Maia 2.75 - makes 3.04/2,75= 1.1054
If U measure the lenght of the triangles sides then log(10) U get a ratio of 1.018 , so neither in absolute numbers nor in log() the length of the triangle axis can represent Pleiades/CalNeb

I've collected 8 of the known data samples, and I headed back to Meene, and just by a reflex handed in the mission, without completing most of the mission...
So is there a known way to continue the mission, after a partial hand-in? Can I somehow get it again?

There are reports that 2 days later it will again pop up in Meene after you have handed it in.

4 confirmed special unlocks:

H16 casket+relic
H13 casket+totem
L10 tablet+casket
L11 tablet+urn

Could be in any obelisk of the corresponding group, but Entry:Itemcombo mapping is always the same.

Unfortunately not, this should have been handled as a CG with maybe 3 to 4 weeks on it, I made the same mistake thinking it was ongoing, got to the station, and oops, game over.

I'm sure someone said they took the mission a second time after handing it in.

 

[Agony_Aunt]

That's not necessarily true - it's good that FDev get to see just how much allowing this jerk behaviour can put people off getting involved with open play in the game. If Xbox players are being banned from chat for mild swears but people can be utter jerks and get away with it they need to reassess things.

If it's annoying enough that it spoils these mysteries and threads and gets seen by everyone coming to see what the fuss is then maybe they'll listen.

Ok, but let's not fill this thread up with such stuff. As i said earlier, there are plenty of other topics where you can do that. There is a way to avoid it, so use it.

If this is true, then it's good news, I'll give it a try later.

Can these be unlocked in PG? Or Solo.

I was away for a 2 days and thread exploded but I know from first tries there were some limitations onto Solo\PG.

Sorry if this was already asked, but I really want a confirmation if possible.

Thanks.

They can be unlocked in PG and open (I unlocked them in "Mobius PVE")

 

[Robbie84]

Thanks. I was in PG too but some things were just not working. Only in Open.

Cheers.

Um... What maps are we using now?

Was shot at by a reaver in a corvette in Open over the ruins. I have died from it.

Random Passing thought... Has anyone tried with a buddy to dual activate the corresponding pairs at the Ruins? Example G 17 and G 20 at the same time in a fresh instance. Might be why it randomly works in PG/Open, and not in Solo

*shuffles all concerns off to the 'concerns' threads nicely out of view*

Move on now because i have a BIG question for you. We have ACTIVE and REAL encounters with aliens around our systems, they are here already and we keep analyzing stones???? Why there is not an expedition to analyze those? There are numerous sites, probes, artifacts, we bring back the artifacts to the engineers just to unlock them but just that. There is a community goal for the stones but nothing for them? Nothing serious progression work about that?

Interdictions from aliens are a scripted event, you can't do anything meaningful during such an encounter. So why bother over analyzing an advanced cutscene?

Yes, in the ancient site says they created a race for weapons,
i believe the Thargoids are their weapons the race they made, and we need to find the technology they use. Are Thargoids went against their masters and devour them? If it is a hive mind behind it possibly, like "Skynet" Or they are these alien and their weapons are the Thargoids.

Remeber DB stating barnacles were genetically engineered? The might be a product of the guardians.

I use this one: http://i.imgur.com/U7BJGHq.jpg It's all in one and you can zoom close enough. H16 is History16, L10 = Language10, not an obelisk ID.

To find a special unlock you have to scan every special obelisk you can find of the group, they may be randomly placed.

CAIN'S THEORY
The Ancient ruins
1: These ancient ruins are just a monument, just like the pyramids in Egypt. A monument with glyphs giving us info about their civilization and nothing more. You see..
That is not a city, there are no daily items around the area. Living there is not possible for them they need an atmosphere as far as we know and there are none hydraulics nor buildings at the area. THAT is a monument with history facts in it and nothing more.

I fully agree that this is / was not a city, but it's not a monument either. It states in one of the decoded data (Tech 7) it was just for communication.

""This is very interesting. According to the data package you just sent me they monolith network was used for most if not all communications regardless of importance.

In keeping with their predilection for sharing knowledge, few restrictions were placed on the network. I thought there might have been separate networks for military and administrative use, but I haven't found any evidence of that.

Everything points to an extremely open society, wich would have made them even more vulnerable when significant social divisions arose."

Still trying to find out how to reset the monoliths without re-logging.

Fly safe CMDR's.

THAT is a monument with history facts in it and nothing more. What makes you think something magical gonna happen? Every civilization in the history made monuments for the same reasons. Write down their history and possible communication with other civilizations too.

It has already been established in a decoded message that this is a communications center/outpost not a monument
, sorry but I didn't bother reading the rest of your post as you are not using freely available information found in this thread to make your theories, which could mislead others.

Thanks for clearing that up - makes sense now

What do you mean by Special though?

This. Too much time spent analysing this event. It's clearly just an intro as to what to expect in the near future.

I can't wait to see more.

Haha I was killed by a vette there too, but it was helpful tbh as I was heading back to the station. I am contemplating taking my vette back to extract revenge, because an unarmoured liteweight conda could not fight back and it took the whelp ages to kill me with only 300-ish shields, so I figure the one who killed me isn't actually that good a pilot. It's a long haul out that way in a vette though lol

If you handed in the research mission try going to a new station/settlement in Meene - I got handed the mission again when I tried that.
