My $0.02 on the spectrographs:

-The symbol next to the UA icon corresponds to this [--|] which corresponds to line from the edge to the center which implies "direction" which corresponds to the UA behavior pointing to Merope.
-The symbol next to the UP icon corresponds to this [-||] which corresponds to the waves from the dot/dash to the edge which implies "distance" which corresponds to the UP behavior giving the distance from Merope to COL 70.
-The symbol next to the UL icon corresponds to this [-|-] which corresponds to the curve connecting the UP to the UL which implies "connection" which corresponds to the UL behavior linking the two other items to activate the UD
-The symbol [|--] doesn't have a corresponding drawing directly on the 2nd spectrograph... it has 6. On the top and bottom circles, dual lines extend from the solar system diagrams (and the UL icon) to the edges and beyond to the center. This appears to imply triangulation (linking 3 distances and locations to find a direction).
-The globe in the center corresponds to the globe at the bottom of the second spectrograph. This implies it is the location from which the 4 "Unknowns" can be located and activated. In other words, it's the starting point of the 2nd spectrograph and the end point of the 1st.
-The two waves on the 1st spectrograph seems to correspond to the baseline distance between Merope and COL 70, which implies that the three waves are 1.5 times the baseline distance. Which seems to imply that the target system is 1306.53 LY from the three base systems.
-Alternatively, we may need to unlock the COL 70 permit, wing up 4 pilots, send a UP to COL 70, send a UA to Merope, put a UL in orbit around HIP 14909, honk everything and have a CMDR watching the map. But this seems pretty convoluted.

It's not very important but the UL also acts as a key to the base doors (in case you lose/explode your UP or UA).

Just out of curiosity what do we make of the sites overall, the live one at day when you can really look at it from above looks very much like a huge insectoid ship crashed there and is being slowly dismantled by scavengers (if you fly over the large wreck you can see them doing it) which are recycling them to build things......unless there is another species of giant space Cicadas they have been scuffling with and dragged their remains there to be devoured.

These are the same scavengers which are actively building the bulbous things on the floor of the central chamber that burst when you run over them.

Are the sites where the goids crashed after the virus and have they rebuilding from these areas as staging posts? The scans I'm taking of the area talk about degradation of the local organic substances due to an un-identifiable agent.

I mentioned something like this earlier too, with the possibility of the destination being an attack target. Potentially, this could be Merope (left, UA), HIP 14909 (bottom, UL), and ??? (right, UP). But I'm not sure there is a solid lead on the system on the right. Is there a system that is particularly associated with the UPs than most?

I'm guessing at possible distances involved with different coordinate sets for the 3 systems to try locating the first. Same method used to locate HIP 14909.

Can any one confirm actualy getting hold of a UP today from the know amonia worlds.. cus this has become painfull.. like after two hours paint would be dry.. but im still looking for a UP!

Can anyone tell me why Col 70 Sector FY-N c21-3 has been proposed as the system on the right? I wasn't able to find it back in the thread.

I'm attempting to put some kind of trilateration options together but this one is throwing me off.

Back when UP where first found, it was discovered that as well as making the first Spectrogram when honked, it also transmitted a very narrow beam of data towards Merope. This contained four bits of data about the planet it was at and compared it's position with that of Merope and a third place. After enough were found in different systems some very clever people triangulated the third system to be FY-N C21-3.

I should also mention props for them and the other very clever people who worked out what the four sets of data where.

If we draw a line between alien base system, and two other to be found ( Merope , HIP 14909 ?) we have all angles in triangle then just put it mirrored so Merope , HIP 14909 will be the base of triangle and we have destination point - quite easy to check.

Awesome - thank you!

Anyway, I have two hypothesis:

1 - This is a Klaxian mothership, taken down by Oresrians, the Scavengers are Oresrian drones looking for valuable slavage (maybe data?)
2 - This is an Oresrian planetary base/mothership, it's been taken down by the Klaxians and the Scavengers are Oresrian drones looking for survivors/data about the attack/materials.

I thinkit could be a ship because of the extreme similarity between the structure and the flower ships

I've not read the last 20 pages, so excuse me if this is known:

Did everyone mentioned that the scavengers indeed take action on the wreckage? It seem's they collect usefull material from the wreckage:

same for me, tried 2 locations (Pleiades Sector RO-Q b5-0, Pleiades Sector KC-U b3-1) for about 15min each. nothing, absolutly nothing. not a single signal source.

btw there's a capital ship in Pleiades Sector RO-Q b5-0

Are they removing or repairing is the question :) as they appear to feed the egg like pods inside the structure

Nope...nothing. Orbited HIP 20785 5 so many times I reversed the planet's orbit. :mad:

Nope, giving up for now and going off to check the new megaship logs instead. Very frustrating, and I can't even tell if I'm doing it incorrectly or not.

Hm, good question. But at the location on the picture, they are collecting material. Because the "beam" goes from wreckage into the "mouth" of the scavenger. Like the thargoid scout ship "loot" the barnacle ...
