This task is quite literally astronomical. We're looking for any possible hint to narrow down the sites.

We fly around for a few days. Ram then says he needs more data from the community. Pilots truck more data in. He announces he narrowed it down further. Wash, rinse, repeat, until the FD art department is finished designing the ruins and they are ready to be put on a planet. Cynical me here...the CG's, messages are drawing more and more pilots into this area of space, and then herding them into just a few specific locations to maximize the number of pilots for when ever and what ever the big reveal is.

I fear you may be correct.

If you get a buzz crashed get excited! You just found ruins most likely!

I did get some severe glitching at c22-17 c3a near the original coords. May check it out again since the shutdown.

Seems to me that the science has been abandoned and now its just brute force?

I'd love to be able to see the hidden messages (if there even are any) but not sure my science / mathematics skills are up to it... I really do hope there is something and that the scientists amongst us can decode it before someone happens upon the new sites just like xxdeath did...
 
No, looking for one grain of salt on over a dozen different beaches!!! :D

And we have no idea what this grain of salt looks like.

How can we do science since FD do not give us a clue? They gave a bunch of places to brute force the search. Operation Comb The Galaxy.

Would be better if Ram Tah told us how can we read the glyphs.

Mmmm is that correct? C is the constant of light in a vacuum. From my understanding light (and lets just stick to the laymans term of 'moving through' and accept that the implication is that of propagation) does indeed slow down as the medium changes. C as a constant does not change, the speed of the light itself does. i.e. light leaves vacuum travelling at/near to C, passes into a medium (say glass) and slows. It stays at that speed whilst still in that medium and then when leaving (back to vacuum), again accelerates back to C?

The only way that could happen would be if the light was amplified before it left the material. aka adding more energy to it. Any impedance of photons will slow light to the point where it can finally be absorbed fully by the medium. Otherwise we could fly over the oceans and look straight down to the bottom at any depth.

Conservation of energy requires this. c is the constant representation of light when and if light can be spontaneously created in a vacuum. Its good for the math. However in the universe and nature. Any light created by stars or otherwise will always be slightly slower moving. The stars own radiation and atoms slow the light down exactly after it was created.

That gentleman is making the argument that velocity and speed. Speed is a numeric quantity applied to matter or energy as it covers a specific distance. (c)=speed of light. Velocity is the measure of matter/ energy of which the particles/objects change position upon a fixed vector.

The thing the person is not taking into account is the fact that once light interacts any other atom,medium, or gravity that the vector has been modified. Its no longer on its original path and to reach its source it will have to been slowed down. Otherwise light would obliterate everything in its path.

Just my opinion but if that is all this mystery is then it is pretty dumb!

After the effort they put into previous events hiding clues in sound waves and using cryptography - surely there is more to this than just flying around until someone spots something!!!

The clues must be in the ruins and there must be some significance on why Frontier moved the obelisks around between the two versions of the site.

I think it would help and prevent people wasting their time if MB could confirm if there is or is not something deeper to be discovered here or if it is just fly around until you find them...
 
Thank you. Are these ruins to be found only on rocky planets? Sorry I'm a noob at this part of the game...

You and me both, welcome to the club. I'm checking anything near a star that has a ringed planet, a moon and a moon attached to that moon. Those better at this question than me should answer.
 
This is probably a bug. I checked by switching open/group/solo, the POI persists, but there is nothing on surface, or a sign on SRV scanner. It looks like the POI of geysers.

It was there before and after the last server restart.

Oh no!

You invoked MB. You summoned his powers! Now he will come here and say either that "this is working as intended" or "that sounds like a bug".

We are doomed!
