Eh, that's nowhere near Hyponia nor Colonia, nor the bubble. It's over on the other side of Sag A.
It looks to me like Frontier bugged POI's again to allow nav beacons and shipwrecks all over the galaxy, like it used to be. My excitement just died, so it's nothing unusual out there near Hyponia, just Frontier messing up again. [sad]
Is it close to one of the other permit locked systems like dryman, that could be an alternative suggestion before you go getting all disappointed - as frontier have said over and over again theres stuff out there to be found and once found it can kick off many hidden storylines they have saved up ready to go. As reported yesterday im making my way out towards dryman
There may be a hidden federation deep space scout / exploration base to be found out there somewhere that could explain it, they may have manufacturing facilities to send out probes and the like ( similiar to the recent CG to build deeep space probes) Send em out with a covert federation fleet of sorts and have them drop off these exploration beacons in different sectors with a degree of Ai inbuild just enough to report data back
What i would suggest is filing bug reports on these finds and see if Fdev give anything away out about it being bugged or not, if its not bugged and they are meant to be there we can continue questioning

Im not so quick to dismiss it out of hand

We still stay here, and we will explore this region.
Good idea after filing a bug report - if Fdev report back working as intended then u have solid ground to move forward

I have a hypothesis about that. Either:
-Those POIs spawn everywhere
-or only near "bubbles" (the local one we all know and every other that might already be there but locked for us). I am thinking of the recent stream in which was said, that more (unknown) bubbles are out there.
The second assumption means that permit locked areas may also considered as a bubble. We dont know whats going on there, but i think it could be possible that FD implemented at least placeholder things in the permit locked regions which may act similar to the known bubble (BGS etc) so the regions evolve before we can enter them.
I will check this in the next days near another permit locked region. Of course i will check also some planets more than 10kly away from any known permit locked systems or the bubble. So we can at least say those POIs are either everywhere, only near locked regions or only at least one permit locked region.
Federation or imperial covert research programs, we know something was launched to the formidine rift as an example, could be signs of alien civilisations (thargoid or not thargoid) remanents of other guardian like empires.
