One thing that would really help the rest of the searches is if you could detail your process for detecting the SC drop delay and narrowing down the search area. Your process basically got within 1 degree lat/long of the actual location. Really nicely done!

It'll be a bit long winded for me to type it by phone, so I'll let another person do that. But I have scanned the comms there. No data points though.
Well done avvie
Congrats! So what 3 more to go?
Maybe 4 if Conflux actually has 4 beacons and the fourth just hasn't been found yet.
Awesome work CMDR.
Does that confirm that a longer loading time dropping from SC can indicate proximity to a base - I guess it does?
I am almost back in Rift lol. But I am glad you found it now I can just enjoy the mystery and not do the search bit...
I'll be heading to Conflux or Hawkings gap shortly though. Tempted to say we should finish off Hawkings before we move to Conflux?
Amazing work, such a massive planet to search too!
Just as a side note on your hull, I think FDEV should add hull repairing limpets like fuel limpets. Fuel rats would then be like a mobile garage haha.
Extra special good job to say how dark it is round that side atm.
Is anyone out there at the moment who can post up screenshots of the data logs for us?
Terrific job! Well done CMDR!
There are at least 2 CMDR's out there from previous posts. I can't get there for at least 30 minutes due to RL.
Holy crap, anothet thingy to spot for explorers

EXODUS
'My job is the EVA. Taking out one of our sidewinders and dropping beacons out in the void and then making sure they're activated. Not sure what these things are for. Who needs a beacon this far out anyway. Weird they all have this code in their BIOS 'Exodus'. Still at least I now have something to do. The journey was so dull! Months of travel to get here.'

So Drew is trying once again to get us to look at the mythological underpinnings of the story.
It won't work Drew, by this time tomorrow we'll be back to following pictures in the skybox
However, in the brief window where we're thinking about it, I thought I'd raise what I consider to be an interesting point.
If the names of the ships are significant, that must be for one of two reasons:
1. Because the author wants us to make the connection - and they're willing to stretch the bounds of probability and coincidence in order to do so.
2. Because in-game characters, for in-game reasons, made it happen.
Personally, I hope it's option 2. because then things get really interesting...
In order for the murderous terrorist to be escorted by ships with significant names when she was 'disappeared', someone with a high level of authority within the Empire must have been aware in advance that the interception of the convoy was planned and arranged escort ships appropriately.
Since the ship names are meaningful to people trying to solve the Rift mystery, rather than the cover-up faction, it follows that the attack on the prisoner transport was performed by forces who support discovery rather than suppression.
Then we have to ask, why would any group who wants to solve the Rift mystery want Kahina dead?
The Independent Rift Explorers Alliance thinks she's a dangerous psychopath who belongs in a secure facility - but that's exactly where she was being transported and anyway, the IREA don't do the violence thing.
So, conclusions we can draw:
Kahina is alive and under the protection of a group who wish to support her efforts to uncover whatever lies in the Rift.
Congratulations!
Habitable world from beta site confirmed as earth like world?
There aren't any earth likes in the beacon systems, unless they're talking about an earth like world that doesn't stay in one place.
Raxxla? Does Raxxla do that?
