True... And ponies (or bronies) and probably Thargoids
Try it and see.
The spelling errors was after the fact. There are 2 i's in the original phrase.
So I guess it is "Evaacuator" then? ;-)

Ah, final proof of an Imperial link!!!
Jorki, - enlighten me, how does that prove an imperial link?
The empire used to be a very male dominated society. Hengist Duval changed a lot of these rules and practices, although it was a slow start.
His first act was to allow women in the palace. As you can see form this old article, they weren't quite equal at that point.
'After many years in which women were not welcome within the precincts of the Imperial Palace, His Majesty has decided that he will permit their presence on a day-to-day basis in purely decorative roles. The theatre which once was used solely for performances of the Ais dances of Prono has been converted with shopping malls, sandwich bars and sewing rooms to make the invited females feel at home.'
Hengist became more of a feminist in his late years.
Totally agree with you here on how useful it would be, but there's still shadows of doubt in my mind over using the Zurara for this role.
Would be great material for Drew's book after Premonition.
I'd love a base outside of the BGS, so no Pirates try to interdict me any time I'm on my approach to a station! It's so frustrating when I'm 2Mm out and almost there then suddenly I get interdicted and thrown off course.
It does indeed. That's why I previously suggested an Asteroid Base, because it wouldn't cost so much as a full station or outpost would. I'm still not totally happy with the idea of moving the Zurara, my partner last night expressed her disappointment at the idea that she wouldn't be able to go out and find the logs, and she isn't a Rifter or even really cares to investigate the mystery -- But she thinks the megaships are cool to see, and she would like to get the logs, not through some tourist beacon but through an actual ship, like the Gen Ships. I think just saying "Well if they want voice logs they can go to the Gen Ships" is just selfish.
It shouldn't really support a FSD. Capital ships don't even have FSDs and still use old school hyperspace jumps. The reactor and I believe Life Support are really the only things that need work.
Yeah but we all know how good Frontier is at keeping their details consistent..
And how would you manage that without first getting it to a safe dock that can work on it, and not get mind-wiped by airbourne hexedit?
I think option 1 would be the most compelling for a story, we would steal it and use it in solving the conspiracy. Option 2 is the most respectful, and would leave it unharmed and easily reached by those who wish to see it and the logs. Option 3 is the most useful to us but probably the hardest to achieve.
I was actually thinking more along the lines of Monty Python. "Bring out your deaaad!"All this talk of bringing back the dead? Guessing we're taking about returning bodies to the bubble rather than resurrection. It's just that the phrasing makes it sound like the latter...
Damn, I was going to post the video but someone beat me to it.
This is the most ideal idea to me. We as a group wouldn't really be able to just retrofit this megaship with new drives or anything because we don't have that sort of organization or funding. If we were to revive the Zurara I would feel much happier with it not being able to move as opposed to slapping on FSDs that shouldn't really work with a ship that size.
A new clue. Good spot! Now, if only I wasn't in the office all day, I could throw my efforts into helping
Who was the lady of fate in mythology?
Moirai / moerae in Greek. Clotho , lachesis and atropos
Ninja'ed while editing
Are there not Moirai sectors out there, or am I imagining that? Or something similar? Either I'm insane or I flew through a smallish region with similar names recently.
Edit... It is entirely possible my grip on sanity is dubious.

I'm still out in the Rift thinking there is yet something to find.....there is nothing dubious about my grip on sanity.
Yes there is - It is located at 34.3125 / -44 / -15.59375. (as per edsm) [up]

Also notice that all the fates have their own system - Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos

I assume we have DrewW to blame for that, he apparently gave us Aquaduckus Frigidus.
I have a plan
Wouldn't even need to consider a safe dock for at least a year, and no risk of mindwipe.
Admittedly that plan would need to submitted to FDev (which it hasn't) and gain their approval with whatever other hurdles they wanted to add, but my plan is ready.
Just waiting to see what happens here so hopefully I don't have to submit it while hoping nobody else has already popped theirs in to use it for other purposes.
Although I must admit if stolen for use as a pirate base by another group of players the cries of outrage here would make me laugh.

Can't repeat it enough. Think to your old days. Explorers, by definition, do not have a family. Keep the Zurara as the Rifters Retirement Home ! Don't be silly !

Haven't said what I would do with it if I stole it, but taking on that mill stone isn't appealing so hopefully there will never be a reason to give that reveal. But you could be right.
