But isn't that what happened? Like there is one planet in each system which rotates the other way than all other planets and coincidentally the planet from ancient site alpha also does this inverted rotation. I can't confirm if this is true, I haven't checked, but someone said
this and this would mean we could narrow it down to 4 planets or possibly 2.

It's waaaay further than that. If it were only 3.5 km then I'd see the Anaconda's parked on top of them long before seeing the ruins themselves. I usually spot them when the ships landed at them are still well beyond radar range.
Think I'll give 11 B a search now then
I'm parked up on 11 b atm. Though I'm currently in the pub trying to get some inspiration - thanks FD for driving me to drink.
Isn't that what this is all boiling down to regardless of how it is framed? Let's start here...because reasons...that are just as good as starting at any of the other 50 places?
The only methodology for any of this being employed at this point is simply picking a planet just because, getting as many pilots as possible to fly in an organized fashion and hope that someone finds something that may or may not be similar to something that even with well known location is still difficult to find. There is no logic. There is no reasoning. There is no science.
Well it 's been the same since the first UEAs.
Frontier seems to like when it ends up on brute force.
I was eyeballing these planets on the system maps... I too felt these are likely candidates... As well as rocky bodies with high rocks and little metal content...
Thank you! Time go nom some datas.
Systems and planets matching Ancient Ruins criteria:
Synuefe XO-P C22-17 D 1
Synuefe ZL-J D10-119 11 B
I disappear for 2 days and this happens, I think FDev have it in for me.
Just my 2p's worth into the doing the long slog of a vistual search debase.
1) Need to happen.
2) I personaly have been looking at planets/moons which are of the same colour as the known site. I think the Gardians trail has all 3 sites (well in there original location, I think the one in the COL 173 Sector KY-Q D5-47 system was moved before release or after no idea).
3) I spent alot of time flying over the existing site trying to work out what's the best alt blar blar blar. With my graphics settings and the fact I'm going to need to watch the screen for 9 hours I can up with a servay height of 2-3km. Yes by going higher you can see it if you know where to look but after 5hours eye balling a planets surface unless it jumps out at you your going to miss it.
4) God FDev why the "blank-aty blank" didn't you release a upgraded scanner to do this! Ow sorry, no we all now why.
Well I've done 72 hours on COL 173 Sector KY-Q D5-47 8 A (I think?) so I better get in game and head over to one of the targets. Happy to help day/night time (uk) this week and weekend but next week I'm back to work
Sorry if someone has raised it but does anyone have diameter's of POI at different heights? Might help defining the max spacing between ships?

Someone made those pictures here: http://imgur.com/a/Qw9e0
And I have a hard time seeing those ruins from 4-5k distance that way. It's the same when I play on my PC (I play on ultra settings). In those screenshots I can see and identify the ruins because I know what they look like and I know that they are there.
But if that would be me flying at that 4k altitude at another planet I would probably miss it.

But what is the reason for picking that as a criteria? What do we know that makes that more likely than any other criteria?
Science is about eliminating hypothesis, that is what is happening. You're not helping though are you? All this negativity without nary a suggestion or a course of action.
Has anyone got a ratio comparison between old ruin planet and Merope 5C? Whatever the old ruins are telling us may be using Merope 5c as a standard of measurement just like the UPs did.
No...we are eliminating nothing. On what grounds, what reasoning is anything being eliminated? It is all boiling down to brute force. These planets are likely to be candidates, so let's pick those ones to...brute force first.
My suggestion is that there is no viable course of action.
