wait, you need azimuth
supposed that ruins maybe will be on grean circle
-31.8; 51.1 and 82.2; -128.9 - it's two sets of coords on grean circle. They was chosen for simplicity

Yeah that was me with the photo
Yeah, just in case it wasn't clear, that's why I was winking!
Ah, it's just crossed wires. He's already answered, but you're probably looking at differently labelled versions of the map to him or something like that. On the old version of the site there were 2 triangular groups of obelisks near where Beacon 2 is on the current main image of the map of the current site on the front page. Here you go:

Hope what he said makes sense in that context!

I wondered where this would go overnight....
Actually, no, I didn't try to discredit them based on their forum rank. I was giving reasons why some people might be viewing it as a troll. Frankly what I saw was this:
- Player posts some fairly legit looking theorycraft, followed by a post of "guys I solved it" and not much else
- Others respond with, basically, "lol troll"
- Player (basically) says "What? Why?"
- Me: OK, this guy might be a troll, but based on his post history he seems more like a forum newbie
That's when I put up that list to try and help out. If you're reading it any other way, you read it wrong. Honestly, to help a legit player who's being accused of being a troll you kinda have to talk about the reasons why they might be appearing like that. But whatever. Apparently simply pointing out someone is "Mostly Harmless" (because that's what almost all disposable troll accounts are - one/occasional use disposable things) == Gross discrediting accusations and slander. I guess the English language changed overnight too...
Maybe my post was abrupt? I'll cop that, I tend to talk that way, especially when there's a lot of other wowzering going on, plus I was literally on my way to sleep. But if it's not clear, I was trying to help because pretty much exactly the same thing happened to me with the UA morse, being talked-down by some "Elite" poster who'd been doing this "much longer than me". Been there, done that, got the scars to prove it.
Anyway...
mclester: Based on the posts made overnight... those craters with the lumps at the base are usually just impact craters, and can be found almost anywhere. They're good landmarks to start searching from though.
Meanwhile the "Singing" is normal atmospheric noise when you're in orbital flight. I thought it was significant once when hunting for barnacles... best bet to see if it's something significant is go to a system you consider "insignificant", get =~ 10k from the surface with no music, have a listen and see if there's any major differences between what you hear there and here. If you find something, grab a screenie and throw it up. Hope that helps.

Will you share or will keep it to yourself and just tease us just like the other guy, CMDR?
Maybe im wrong but i make a graphic i found:
longitude: -9° and 111°
latitude: -28 and 88

if they are in any place, its there. isnt that the north pole? anybody checked there?
Nothing to be found here.
Yep, nothing there.
UNKNOWN PROBE SIGNAL DECODED
Unknown probe signal is extracted with spectral analyzer. It show us the city before its devastation with valuable astronomical data.
It is a single aerial picture (taken from above left when the sun was in the north-east region) and that shows 2 "clocks".
In the middle there is one astronomical observation, with relics as orientation points (under investigation if they have been used as triggering device).
On the right there is another one that looks like some kind of mechanical device, probably time based in connection to the first one.
We can only speculate if unknown probe is a distress beacon or in search for intelligent life.
Decoded signal:
Position on the map (most probably):
Respect to unnamed CMDR for the extracting this signal in the first place. O7
CMDR ExoForce sign off

No. You can still hand the mission in, and you can leave the station, re-dock in the station, and get the mission again. You can also still get duplicate rewards by going to the site and scanning the obelisks again. Keep in mind that you won't get message notifications if you don't delete the previous messages, but your rewards will still go up.
Why not using one of the much clearer pictures?
Like this:

As for me, it makes no sense at all.

I've been trying to keep up with the thread as best I can, but I'm a bit lost here. Where was this probe found?
Has anyone tried out this idea yet?

That is brilliant! I'll check out those next
The way the triangles branch out in the centre does give it 3 angles all at 120 degrees (for each point), so your image is brilliant as it shows it.
So what we need to do is check:
Latitude: 88 / Longitude: -9
Latitude: -28 / Longitude: 111 /
so:
88 by -9
and
-28 by 111

I am with you there. I have no idea what he means. Especially not the "shows the city before the devastation". What city? What devastastion?
The data we gathered from the scans only mention the ancient sites to be part of the monolith network to communicate. Saying there was once a city there is pure speculation. Plus it doesn't really help us.
I don't know how the pictures he posted help us trying to solve this, find more ancient sites and data scans.
Look at it like old monochrome photo, look at the shadows, see the gears on the right. This is the best I could do, the rest of the signal pictures were low quality.
Those of You who are familiar with power grid and network grid will be able to process the picture and incorporate it in exact location.
Edit: I give up..

Yeah, it was always pretty obvious what you meant, and also pretty obvious that mclester was just someone new and enthusiastic. The way things have been read into and taken the wrong way today has been very very bizarre*.
