On a side note if Eds next stream isnt him driving or flying around a fkin planet with nothing to show for it after 5hrs hes not really representing the game play atm.
The centre of craters can sometimes develop a pyramid-looking point - this is because when enough kinetic force strikes solid matter, the atoms of all the dirt act just like they are a liquid:

This is what can happen with some meteor hits - so much kinetic energy striking a single area will make all the molecules act the same way - it is just more obvious with water, but the physics is applied the same way with any particle.

Whats slightly interesting is that the black line is 270-90 degrees which is probably a coincidence.
Yeah no problem. The only issue I have is that you claimed you have solved the puzzle and talked about a 4 digit code embedded in the ruins which nearly hindered you in solving the puzzle. You were thanking FD for the fun you had with the puzzle.
And all you gave us was a screenshot of a generic looking crater but not revealing any other details. Someone asked for the coordinates of the crater. It would be nice if we could get them. We are happy about any help and any theories we can get here.
But what we don't need is someone saying he solved it and then let us hang and don't give us info.

When visiting the ruins once the crater had gone silent I noticed the the relic towers only raised by 1 off the 3 telescopic
sections, were as when I took my observations they rose by all 3, thus enabling me to make the observations.
Took my eye off the ball for 24hours....did I miss any discoveries?
Would just like to point out, (in case nobody else has mentioned it (not able to keep up with this thread atm) that the Formadine Rift Delta site was found today:

If you look back at the commander's earlier posts, he found it by noticing that on certain parts of the planet, his drop to glide was taking longer to load than elsewhere. Thought this might be useful at ruins sites. It would be unlikely to help me, as my drop is usually lengthy anyway, so I couldn't tell the difference.
A read the new 2 lines of 3 double obelisks added (group D) as 2x3 2x3, hence 2323. This may just be coincidence though.
This is interesting - any ideas how that happened? Was it repeatable?
Just thought, if you are at 0,0 and you take a bearing of 231.4 for a distance of 13601km you should arrive at the first ruins site. True ?
Assuming that is true you can specify a location in the form of a bearing from 0,o ( but who's definition of 0,0 ) and a distance ( assuming the Guardians are more advanced than us in the UK and actually moved to the metric system already)
Why would we assume the Guardians would encode the location of another base on another planet in a form that another species would understand?
