Did you by chance record video of the triangles formation at the same time? Might be some correlation between the visual Que and the sounds emitted.
Just a thought

What would help tremendously is if we knew what elements comprised the obelisks and other structures at the ruins.
Maybe they are made of a locally sourced rare element that would point us to a specific planet/moon. I know people are trying to match up planet types and compositions, but if one planet in each system had that specific element then we'd know where to look.
I have noticed an abundance of arsenic in and around the planet hosting the alpha site. Maybe we should focus on the arsenic-rich worlds?

At least a carbon dating... so we'd know in comparison to planets with craters in them, if the crates would pre-date or post-date... that would then tell us if its worth looking into craters
Got a little more excited when I also counted 13 groups of obelisks but I realise this is a bit "in the eye of the beholder". You could argue that I should also split groups 1,2 and 5 like I did with 7 to 12.
Sadly I have pub duty now but I'll work on this tomorrow. It looks like I may have to take the mission again and see if the sequence makes any sense with relation to the coordinates. Couldn't find a map that says which obelisk gives data first, second and so forth and maybe that's even irrelevant.

I should have seen that coming. I'd rep you again but the forum gods won't let me

Not sure how useful they will be, I took them a few days ago for my own use. Wasn't too concerned about quality at the time.
Why would they choose the same meridian for longitude zero as we? Makes no sense.
*replace 'Feds' with whoever you like.
This is what I've always believed, that the Probes were in the game before the Artefacts. The line of thought being that 'something' was using the probes looking for 'something', I believe that we could have found it in game first. However we didn't, as most people tend to ignore non-land-able planets. As a result they just moved the story on, on it's own having the Feds discover one, research it (Sirius Corp, anyone?
) and create the Artefact and deploy it as some sort of sensor net looking for unknown ships. So then players find the Artefacts and find out they are scanning for something and transmitting the data of ships scanned somewhere. Can't remember it the Commander who first found the Probe Convoy USS was actively searching for anything linked to the Artefacts nor not, but regardless eventually the elusive 'free floaters' were found. Then like moths to a flame we start playing with them all over the place. This works with the current appearance of USs. But are these unknown ships from the ones who sent the probes or the ones being searched for?Of course, If the Artefacts were placed there by Forces Unknown and were found by the Feds and again researched and whatnot, ending up with Probes being sent to various Ammonia worlds looking for Something. Probably in the belief that something from an ammonia world was involved in the Artefacts. Based on the little we know, Thargoids like those so lets start with what we know then move on to other places. Makes sense to me. Players come along and start finding the Artefacts, meaning a lot of scanning by the Artefacts etc so the forces unknown are getting a lot of data. So now we have to ask ourselves was this a tactical mistake on the the part of the Feds, letting a lot of data get transmitted? Or was it a planned tactical manoeuvre, to ends as of yet unknown? And now we have unknown ships appearing... is this in response to all these ship scans? Were they the ones who put the Artefacts in place? Or maybe the Artefact was looking for these guys?
In truth both ideas work well.
And why round -31.7868 up to -32 while rounding -128.9217 down to -128? Not even internally consistent rules in number handling. Internally consistent would be -31, -128 or -32,-129...that's not nearly as pretty though.

There are 4 distinct items, against a grid of lines.

This Dream Crusher has her moments
We tried using Octa on this? They have used it on others....
Because any logical being will divide a sphere the same way, whether they call it -31,-128 or "shnarfle, garp" is just semantics. Math would be pretty much universal unless measuring interdimensionally. In which case all bets are off

Besides the fact that 360 degrees for a circle is an human fabrication.
Here are the 3 pics of the base of the B4 relic beacon. I noted they are really only 2 gifs that are flipped vertically to give the illusion of many different images, so I dismissed them as just artsy and useless.
Note this is only the base. There may be other icons/glyphs further up the relic beacon.

You can't deduct the prime meridian from math, it's a random determination.
Thus "the rest is semantics". If we say it's at -31,-128, and they said it was 45,164, the math would still correlate because it's a sphere.
Looking at the bottom of the beacons, there are triangle symbols. They are the same on all the beacons. A large triangle and 4 smaller triangles in different layouts. Guys, I really think this might be a clue on the other ruins locations. I just not a crypto guys that figures puzzles like that out. Someone smarter than me puzzle that out for me?

I made videos long ago that Chris used to create his website from. The issue might be that the patterns loop every 6 seconds! Spent a lot of time in front of those obelisks, never seen anything in them myself.
I deleted all the long videos ages ago.
This blank grey image everyone is using to edit their theories is wrong, and it could drastically effect our results, who ever took this image is missing the detail above the top circle and the detail below the bottom circle which is Crucial! Does anyone have a proper up to date image, also containing the re-position obelisks?
