I am diying with laughter right now
In 1492 christopher columbus had men on watch at the top of the mast with a spotting scope. in 3303 we can scan a planet and know exactly what it is mad up of down to every rock on it. yet we can not pick up a energy source with the scanner like we do POI... starting to think we are the butt of a a bet to see how many window lickers will waist time looking for something that you have a better odd at wining the lottery at. I have licked my window clean for to many hr's now. time to do something productive.
Right about now is when FDev should pop in with wisdom or a worthy surface scanner. This search is even more miserable for us Xbox CMDRs because WE HAVE NO DAMNED GRAPHICS SETTINGS!!!!
I'm going to go kick a puppy excuse me

Please define counter-clockwise? Is it negative spin? BD-12 1172 1 has negative spin by the way. 2,5G, hot as hell.
Good luck. We all need every iota of it we can get.

Someone have coordinates of the 5 systems ? need to math this ! it must be a reason to have 2 systems at same distance from a triangle formed by 3 systems !

GL. BTW I'm having my time in my vette pushing for my first billion (last 6 Millions). I will be much more relaxed when Guardian or any other alien will show up and, more importantly, I'm willing to guarantee a bit of protection for players at ruin sites...
Luck!
of course , im nuts sometime
Would you post them on here once you've got them? Would be good to have them on hand! Thanks in advance!
I've been staring at the first ancient ruins map for the past couple hours and I think I have something.
The first thought is that the ruins themselves are perhaps intended to be a failsafe map of the network. The obelisks would tell you everything if they were functional.
But if they fail, they probably fail due to passage of time, a long one. In that time stars would probably shift so you can't just point to the direction of the next site. Instead you have to describe the star system.
Now humans would describe the star system, because Earth is a planet. However, guardians may originate from a moon of a gas giant and as a result they may consider gas giants much more important. So perhaps they would not describe the star system, but just the gas giant and it's moons.
Please, rate my craziness:
Only one binary gas giant matches the interpretation, SYNUEFE ZL-J D10-119 12 & 13, and therefore I divine that the ancient ruins are located on SYNUEFE ZL-J D10-119 12 A. The moon is indeed landable.
Now either someone show me where I made a mistake or someone who has a bit of understanding of astronomy figure out which part of that moon would always see the first ancient ruins. I don't believe in -31, -128 nor in combing the entire moon

Not Bad! I Like it!

Nice interpretation ! I also think that FDev would leave a clue for the coordinates, because even one planet is a lot of surface to analyse [yesnod]
I can't say anything about whether that matches up with anything in either of the new systems, but I admire the thought you put into this. It is certainly quite interesting. If you want to find the Guardians (or their transgalactic comms network) you have to think like a Guardian.I've been staring at the first ancient ruins map for the past couple hours and I think I have something.

Worth a look, en route!
There are lots of wacky theories buzzing around but the sheer surface size of the potential planets is (probably) too vast to tackle without more information.
From what I understand, the initial site was found via triangulation. If you look into Formidine it seems as if they were concerned with triangulating as well.
That said, the mystery was discovered too early last time, ahead of schedule by all reports. I wouldn't be surprised if this takes a while this time around.
I absolutely love it. Just having the chance to discover it without it having been discovered ten minutes after the update is awesome.
I like that it's difficult. I like the wacky theories. I love this game.
I would wager that the current near-impossibility is part of the grand design and that we will receive more hints along the way. Already more is being learned about the already discovered location.
That said, I think I'll head back toward the initial site as I've finished flailing about here in Synuefe zl-j d10-119. As someone said earlier, we are assuming that the conditions will mirror those of the initial site. We have no real evidence to back up the validity of that guess (although it is, indeed, an obvious one).
