Where was the growth found?
I could've sworn one of these was already reported on <that thread which tracks locations of fumaroles, braintrees and all the other places that have flora>?
It would be a nice addition to the game to have an exploring SLF with radar/wave scanner and such to speed up finding things like ruins, biological signatures, etc.
Out by the California Nebula. Only the 1 site is known so far. Next to the Mahon Research Base in HIP 18077.. It started as a Bark mound site, but changed to the pumpkins a few weeks after. Been there for months now.

Right. It's just outside the base, on the plains. Didn't seem like scanning them did anything.
Out of interest, is there any screeny of what it looked like as the Bark mound site?
Nevermind, google is my saviour

Should be some in previous threadnaughts, been there when it was still space shrooms but not a home to post pics
Biological Thargoid weapons !!!
Its great what you can grow in space with some Elite botany skills
Perhaps a new ranking system, astrobotanical. Make money and rank by selling stuff at farmers market.
Just sent it to FDev
Thanks guys, I totally missed that trailer and the FP wasn't that much help when you were gone rizal.
I had a quick shot a photoshop and for the lazy ones (that missed that piece like me) put the stills of the trailer in the spoiler:
(couldn't find it on the FP)
a little HDR

There are 5 bright things there in front of that Cobra is this a signal
Maybe you mean the ASP that landed next to the cobra?
And I don't know how much work went into the trailer here, since I was inactive for a couple of months...but those scenes are amazing.
And isn't this thing in the right upper part a grown out barnacle?
We need another finger tip search of all planets in Maia and Merope to see if anything has changed.
After a bit of reading on EDSM about HIP 22460, reading the articles about the Thargoid structures on Polygon and watching the Unknown Trailer, I have a guess that may lead us to find more of these structures.
Polygon states that at first the structure appeared to be a Thargoid ship, like many of us believe, but upon getting closer it resembled an organic structure of sorts, embedded into the planet itself. So the object in the Unknown trailer may not a ship, but rather a depository for eggs or something similar. And after reading about the possible planet that the Thargoid structure is located on HIP 22460, which is planet 10B, I went to EDSM to read about the planet's information. One point that stuck out to me was the geyser activity was noted as "Major Silicate Vapour Geysers" and I assume that most planets wouldn't include the word "Major" in them. So I went and watched a couple videos on the geysers and they seem to produce the game greenish gas that we saw in that trailer.
So I'm proposing that we search for systems that have landable rocky bodies with Major Silicate Vapour Geysers as the Thargoids may have chosen those locations to mask these structures from being seen without careful observation. This could be a bit of a stretch but it seems like there are multiple of these objects strategically placed where it fits in with the science of the game.

Wait... so Barnacles are used to support their ships... but this one is fully grown and part of an alien base full of eggs... o_o
There's only one thing we can do with every Barnacle site out there...

Tis a shame EVERYONE here will most likely have to wait. Until some random dude finds it in the middle of nowhere. Hell. They said no hints too!
Yeah, have been thinking the same
I found one disabled/non-active data point on a crashed probe or satellite last night and a few kms away, 8 canisters of various goods from a wrecked SRV. Typical stuff, I suppose. But my theory was that with the activity in that system, why not look on the closest land-able body? A number of mountain ranges as well and many deep canyons. Is it not possible that caverns could be found there? I have only about two hours of SRV and limited fly-over time in so far but I intend to spend the weekend covering more ground. Likely nothing significant to find, but what if.....?
