The reason is, I think that the focus currently lies on getting as much of the Ram Tah info as possible.
They could be "words"/characters like in some languages(chinese/japanese).
They remind me of egyptian cuneiform.

The obelisks can show words with the combined symbols, who knows

One of the bigger problems there is Each tower has the same Icons....The obelisks Do have changing Lights(possibly to represent data?) and were all mapped at one point(I don't think anyone has gleamed anydata from that tho)
 
I found this in the ancient ruins, This is one of the big usseless metal objects and when you look inside , there is this. It looks like a tower with some kind of satellite dish on top of it.


Any thoughts?

see this picture again, i make with the paint some lines and i see in the picture that there are 2 faces, apeared 2 hands, and the ears, nose and teeth form triangle. I think this could be like a map

With the distances we are looking at here, line of sight is not a problem. A object blocking the waves would create a wave-shadow.

Waves "enter" wave-shadows and at a given distance, which is calculated using wavelength and wave speed, after the border of the shadow, they will have fromed a complete wavefront again. This is in part, why we can have few signal towers IRL with a lot of recievers (actually there are a lot of reasons for that, but this is one of em). Additionally, as you pointed out with the black holes, Gravity of stellar objects helps the waves curve into the shadow even faster, thereby closing the gap to form a complete wavefront again. Of course you are loosing energy every time you have to close a gap, but we can assume that energy was not a concern for them. If all that even applies to FTL travel of waves, I cannot say, but theoretically it should. Especially when using extremely low frequencies (they were used for submarine comms, as they could bounce between the athmosphere and the gound better and lost less energy in the process, so they could even pierce water), which close the shadows faster (in less distance after the object that caused it) than their higher frequency counterparts, communication without line of sight is perfectly possible.

Ah, thanks for that, my knowledge of these things is extremely limited! I though stuff like dust clouds etc could absorb electromagnetic radiation though, I did think if you were trying to communicate directly through something like a nebula you'd need to find a way around it though?

However it probably torpedoes any though that stellar structures or objects in the surrounding galactic area have much significance.

Probably still go and take a look at that black hole though 😊
 
Hey guys idk if anyone has made this connection yet but I wonder who pulled jaques station out of witch space and at their current location? ;)

"They sing, the artefacts. I thought that was some crackpot ranting, but when you're out there they sing and then they find you"

Crushdepth should know by now at least.

One thing you are forgetting is that electromagnetic radiation moves at the speed of light in a vacuum (think photons), and the speed of light is a universal constant therefore FTL communications would not be using electromagnetic waves.
 
I know its a long shot, but does someone have a system image of the neighbouring system thats only 1.7LY away?

Going with the Guardians slingshot with moon space-travel, I also wonder if you can align it with Synuefe xr-h d11-102, Planet 1 B and it's moon. Or any other system for that matter.
 
I was thinking there three as well, my evidence would be if you look at the distribution of x/y data scans it looks like we are at site 2.

E.g. the table in this spreadsheet.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1czTAJwlQvS-zfstpTKpHDY0ZMl-JtG51tr8-syePTIs/edit#gid=0

2. The planet the ruins are located on rotates. That, in itself, probably means it's not an in-game feature we need to worry about. There are too many variables at the site to look at things aligning with other things. There might be a map somewhere - the site itself might be one - but really we've not figured it out if that's what it is.

I'm back to trying to work out what their Glyphs look like and some sort of key to unlocking them. Whatever it is is probably totally obvious and we're completing missing it.

Just a thought or two (or three) on these two points:

This site was found by players that looked at the release trailer, figured out by the constellations where this site would be located, and found it, most likely before FD was ready to hint at it's location.

There were three alien crash sites that we were pointed to via unregistered beacons. We found the beacons in sequence, along with the three crash sites in sequence.

I'm thinking along the lines of Racer1 that we found site 2 before we found site 1 (which would have given us the tools needed to find this site and then site 3). This assumes, of course, that like the alien crash sites, there would be three of them.

If this is the case (we found site 2 before site 1 was hinted at), we found this one too soon, which is why we're all scratching our heads as to a meaning for it all.

Just sand in the wind, of course, there is no hard evidence there's another site and this was just a rest stop along the way or just a good place to put their library center for all I know. Of course, since this appears to have lots of bugs in it, that's certainly not helping anyone, but I can't help feeling that, with all the combined efforts of everyone here, we are simply missing a key that we were supposed to have found first, i.e., a Rosetta Stone.

Just my 2¢, of course.

Nothing stands out, but is it coincidence they chose a system with a neighbour so close?

well one of Ram Tah's messages confirms what we've said, but he seems to have more info than we're getting.
"This data proves a theory I had that the written form of the Guardians' language is based around glyphs, with each glyph representing a single word. Once I've fully identified these, the process of separating tonal meanings should become much easier. The glyphs seem to be able to be combines to describe complex concepts, but also communicate additional layers of meaning through the inclusion of movement. each glyph is a symbol. They are more abstract than pictoral hieroglyphics, but it's possible to identify a simplistic reference to the shape of the thing being described - for example, the glyph for 'moon' incorporates the waxing and waning as it would have appeared from the Guardians' homeworld."

seems too many striagh lines for a mirrored texture but its more than possible it is...however would we not see more of the texture around?

Just trying to rule out possibilities of hidden clues

Literally all of the straight lines are mirrored from the very middle of the picture... Also if you think a little bit about game development (assets size + real life money cost of creating the assets) then you will see that if an object is bilaterally mirrorable then you definitely want to do that.

I am sorry, but this looks 100% like a mirrored texture, no hidden meaning in that.

Hmmm not fully convinced but you have nothing to be sorry for...i mean you must know 100% right? :p
 
The picture on the Frontier website is not of this planet, please someone tell me I'm not wrong, look at the gas vents in the background and I don't think there is a pillar so close to the monoliths

Could simply be a hand-crafted scene for a cool image (this doesn't look like it is in-game scene exclusively, though maybe it is...) but otherwise you are right... this is definitely not the site we are at.

this has been speculated many times and believed to be just an art piece.

though if this a texture mirror as suggested its rather co-incidental...

This data contains more details on the Guardian's culture, specifically art. Many of the records I've now extracted include the data you've just sent through, show that most of the Guardians' art had a religious basis. It seems that their shift to a religious society affected all aspects of their lives. I have found older records that indicate other art forms did exist, with realistic and abstract techniques evident. I hoping that some of the data we've yet to decode will contain images of these art works.

just wondering if someone added a little extra to the ruins for us....

if you play about with the image there is possibly a face...may not be a clue but could just be an added details of art etc...
