I had the same thought at work today, that if they are two bodies, they could be used to reference one another through ratios. Another one: if you take the dashed ring (4 segments around each body) as showing the relative rotation speed (arcs covered in the same amount of time, like stars in the rotating skybox) then the larger body spins about 1.7 times the speed of the smaller.

This I what I found but it is not there anymore since I left the game and then came back in.
Yeah I know it.
To be honest they may have well not told us what systems they were in. The likelyhood is just as high for joe schmoe to have stumbled upon it by accident without knowing the system names. Many millions upon millions of sqkm to search. Most people cant zoom into their house from google earth and we have many magnitudes more land mass to search. More than likely what will happen is someone will datamine the system data and find out what planet they are on. That will be the most likely scenario at this point.
I am really starting to not care any longer and I cant see having billions of systems and calling content. Sure you can play with every grain of sand on Miami beach, but is that their idea of fun?
We have such an awesome core game with huge potential but we really need direct interactivity with the environment.
We need to be able to push buttons, run in game computers, pressure pads to park the SRV on. Pick up objects in the environment and do more than store, sell, or shoot them. That alone would open up the game so much. Missions given by the engineers for ranking. Missions given by the Fed, Imp, Alliance, or Ind Navy for rank.
Maybe add interiors for the SRV to run around in. Perhaps the star ports. Maybe land based installation and Alien ruins. Large halls and rooms that an SRV can move around in.
Tons of stuff can be done to make it fun. I just hope they can add some of it soon.

So the ratio is 1.75. Will try to find something like this: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ThjsXsz1N7R-JtSJsXl8w9ir8CrHui7ifHIXKwTCqfI/edit#gid=0
If Guardians used a catapult to send their ships into space, then planets and moons range can make sense.

that has been floating around on and off, but nothing has been confirmed

so how does 1.75 fit into the galactic map ? does it work at barnards loop
I think that would be too abstract and how would that possibly lead to coordinates or a planet in one of the systems we are looking in? I mean yes, lets assume it is Barnards Loop and Witch Head Nebula, but what now? What's the next step? I don't think it leads anywhere. That's just my critical opinion, feel free to still investigate this further.

its best not to poke fun at their efforts, its better just to let those that want to read tealeaves read them, its better to cover all bases of complexity than to miss something, maybe each site is a map and when find all of them we find the guardians homeworld, but perhaps each map isnt leading to the next one. But u need all 10 pieces to have it make sense, in the meantime brute force search goes on.
The youtube reviewers out there are ive noticed in the last day or so being pretty critical at frontier over this.

There is meant to be an undiscovered human setltment out near barnards loop, having more bored eyes out there rather than the ruins might advance other storylines

The cluster of new systems is currently setting below the horizon at the known ruins site. Setting positions approximately agree with the relic vs. system overlays previously posted, if the northwestern relic is used as the home point.
If we weren't given the ruins sites, I have no idea how we would have identified this as a significant alignment time. The LMC is current over the eastern pyramid, and it kinda looks like the large circular body. That's about it!

I wasn't trying to poke fun. I'm just pointing out an alternative that no one here seems to be considering. Any good scientist is willing to accept the possibility that their hypothesis is wrong.

Would a wider search of the IC sector be in order to find planets and systems of interest, perhaps similiar to the UP map of the col 70 sector. ?
Excellent point!
Thanks!
I reckon it's definitely something worth thinking about doing! If you do go for it at some point, then please allow me to say in advance that I wish you the best of luck of with it and hope it goes well! Thanks!
Thanks!

ive been following the map reading theories from ruins, for now i ask pertitent questions when i see an angle of thought they might not have considered or further clarification
Amen to that. It is probably the outline of a once huge structure
I would agree with you if it were architecture. They're mounds of dirt. Deliberately heaped up and braced in a pattern of symbols resembling planetary bodies and properties. For a puzzle in a game.
Not only this, any good scientist will try to not only prove but also to disprove his own hypothesis. It's when you can't possibly disprove your theory that it becomes material to let it get peer reviewed by others.
It could be a thick layer of ejecta covering a structure. We can't exactly get out and dig, can we? It seems silly for an advanced spacefaring society to resort to earthen mounds. The dirt could also be an impromptu layer of insulation and radiation shielding. If you want to build something on a planet bathed in radiation, the easiest way to protect one's self is to build underground.
