I still think the image from Frontier should be look into.
The way the ruins is set out looks like a planet with an orbiting moon. Moon is mentioned a few times in the data results. Plus, if you go to 56 -107 on the moon orbiting this planet, you will see what the image from Frontier looks like:
Mountains with planet in backdrop, Galaxy arm visible at certain points, planet and moon same color... all adds up to me. Since the community found this site from the trailer, why can that image not also be a clue?
The image of the original site also looks a 2D pointer, pointing at the orbiting moon, and then from the moon back to the planet.

Might check this out later again, but when i checked the moon yesterday I didn't have the time to have a good look

*Cough*
 
I finished gathering all 36 data.

I can confirm all these data https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...57nTBtDqRan41SZKpppJrmwA3c/edit#gid=208480479 are exact as per this map http://imgur.com/a/27jPg (both on front page)

still no clue about the mechanism for light up single obelisks, seems to be just random.

Now it's time to focus on finding new ruin(s) site...

Just to confirm, Technology 13 from Orb & Relic is obtainable from E15.

Great job. I think an important thing to try and determine now is predicting which obelisks light up, and how to make a specific one one light up.

a 3-4 of hours scanning for the standard 13 set (without knowing combos! now it should be real fast) and then a couple of hours a day with elite alt-tabbed parked with passive scanning and sometimes to check missing obelisks.

So... it's possible to brute force without any special effort, we only have know the other 2 sites.

By passive scanning, do you mean staying in your ship with a cargo bay full of relics while other people scan the obelisks in Open/PG?
I'm still trying to figure out if it's possible to get the other decoded messages either in solo or in PG with only two people. :(

yes. 2 of all items so you can have always a valid combo.
 
Right commanders, since some of us expressed interest, I have recreated the Synuefe system in Space Engine based on data from in-game system browser and eddb, for the purposes of studying the movements of S. 1 and 1 B with its moon 1 B A.


Some immediate conclusions, apologies for sounding a bit convoluted, I lack the specialized terminology (english not being my primary language)

- there is no constant point at the horizon of 1 B at which the moon (1 B A) sets and rises - in plain words, if you remain stationary for a few cycles, you'll notice that the said point (is there a word for it?) shifts "to the side" with each full cycle and after some time it travels in the opposite direction - think sun and earth with seasonal shiftings of sunrise and sunset due to axial inclination and orbital traverse - this profoundly affects the theories which concentrate on the moon's alignment with the structures at the site

- the moon isn't really tidally locked since the visible features of its surface constantly change (as evidenced earlier in my posts)

I don't feel like recording and uploading a video (poor upload speed), so if you want to verify my claims and are familiar with Space Engine I can provide the SE script for it.

Very intersting indeed.
Is the orbital data taken from the system map?
Does it give enough info to rebuild the system?

Must be very bad coincidence then that the moon rises and sets exactely at the "landing pads" at the moment :)
 
Being unwilling to resift 100's of pages, does anyone know off hand how much attention has been paid to the close by star Synuefe PJ-D B46-6?



I went on a quick recon, nothing obvious, but there's a lot in the system in terms of landing planets, I've popped into the system about 6 times, nothing stands out.
 
Col 70 Sector FY-N C21-3 is not Miackce. It is not even anywhere near. In the old FFE aka Elite3 Galactic co-ordinate system, where all stars in the Galaxy are more or less in the same plane and the Y-axis runs directly north through Polaris, Polaris was 0,76 and Miackce was 37,144. That places Miackce somewhere beyond the general direction of Polaris from Sol. Col 70 Sector FY-N C21-3 is in the opposite direction to Polaris from Sol. What is more Col 70 Sector FY-N C21-3 is a T Tauri star, whilst Miackce was a Type K orange star.

I wonder where you come by your information?

If anyone thinks they have found Miackce, last I heard more than 20 years ago now the system configuration was as follows:

Miackce - Type K orange star
Miackce 1 - Pink/orange world with brownish atmosphere
???? - Thargoid station
???? - Thargoid shuttle
Miackce 1a - Oblate rock
Miackce 2 - Brown rocky planet
Miackce 3 - Orange/brown gas giant
Miackce 3a - Brown rocky world
Miackce 3b - Brown rocky world
Miackce 3c - Brown rocky world
Miackce 4 - Brown rocky planet
Miackce 5 - Orange/brown gas giant
Miackce 5a - Brown rocky world
Miackce 5b - Brown rocky world

I've worked out some co-ordinates of my own, assuming that the FFE co-ordinates for Polaris and Miackce are accurate even though the distance of Sol-Polaris is given as 607.06 L-y in FFE, instead of 432.58 L-y in ED. And assuming that Miackce is in the same plane as Sol-Polaris-Sag A, just as it was in FFE. I'll be looking for an orange star system of the above configuration in the region, then search down towards the Galactic equatorial plane.

But first I want a cargo Inventory and complete list of Sub-Targets for the Unknown vessel hyperdicting Commanders in the Pleiades/Aries Dark Region Sectors. No one else encountered by the Unknown vessel seems to have thought to acquire such information during the encounter.

You can not recalculate the coordinates from FFE. To get a rough estimate you need to start aligning Achenar (0,-4), Sol(0,0), Alioth(0,4) and Polaris(0,76) so the are on a straight line(Achenar at the bottom and Polaris at the top). Then we have Pleione at (32,32). Rotate the map to get it about 45° up and right from Sol. Miackce should then be almost straight up from Pleione, about twice as far as Polaris.

This does not fit very well in ED and leaves a huge possible area. What we know, is that it was 1000ly from Alioth.

All the systems in the Pleiades are totally different in composition to FFE, so I would not make a big deal of that.
 
So it seems that after all the efforts, the puzzle might actually be bugged. lol

I stopped playing ED and this puzzle a few days ago because i was convinced of this.
Im glad that i did now. Could have been much wasted time.
