Hmmm, well things show up via the FSS for me and I've never had anything show up via the probes that wasn't already there via the FSS. Equally though I don't think I've mapped that many bodies which I haven't already found stuff on via the FSS - it's always possible that you have been finding extra stuff via the probes. Easy way to check - if you've got an example body, then I can go to it, FSS scan and say what I find and then we can see if the probing finds anything different.
The Quest To Find Raxxla
- Thread starter Macros Black
- Start date
Rhea - Carter Port (but not only) is offering tons of these. Systems close by do also. This type of missions seems to spawn in clusters.
I don't think this is related on the contrary i think it's just random mission placement and Fortuna has them too (unless there's something very specific about the ones in Fortuna).
Pretty clear? Have to disagree. We should be able to find the station and any potential tests will matter after finding it aka. forbidden entrance and access to station unless you prove your worth (whatever that is).

Thatchinho: I found it in my notes. So if you still want try it visit these planets (both are in the bubble):
Waimiri AB 1 h - universal surveillance satellite
Semayah AB 5 h - medical centre

That’s one of my worries. That even if I spend a bunch of time looking, I could find the system and be unable to lock onto or see the station without a prior invite, making looking via brute force useless. However the other idea is that the codex says it’s impossilble to contact them *for membership* without an invite. To me that may suggest that you can find it, but like the engineers if you try to get too close without an invite the station will agro.
Also, as a side note, if anyone wants to get their tag on bodies in a populated system in bubble Karamai is ripe for the taking. Prolly a couple dozen untagged planets there. Came across it while searching the near Sol area yesterday. Also came by a planet that was like 2.3ls from the star.
Also another suggestion, you guys might do it already but I just started, is that whatever I’m doing, searching, mining, missions or a bit of pew pew on the side, I’ve always got my route planner set to economy and filtered to unvisited stars (applied to route). That way, however low, I have a higher chance of happening upon something since every jump is to a system I’ve never been to (aside from the final target) before instead of traveling the same well worn path all the time.
I found a nice list of Arabic star names: http://muslimheritage.com/article/arabic-star-names-treasure-knowledge-shared-world
Lots of these are used in ED. Mostly in the latinized form.
I note that there are two eagles among them. Vega and Altair.
We also know these two from the tale of the weaver girl(stellar princess Vega) and the cowherd(Altair).

Anyone with a couple of hours to spend might want to watch these vids. Lot of info.
What about Odin's crows ? There is some legend which is pretty close to that of the eagles. MB is a great fan of Norse lore.

The legend is different from the greek Omphalos legend. The ravens are named Hugin and Munin. They are said to roam the world, the return to Odin to report back what they have seen.
He’s also a big Lovecraft fan. Which brings to mind Azathoth. “The Far Daemon (god really)” “The Whisperer in the Darkness” “the omphalos chained at the center of all space” “the ancient legends of Ultimate Chaos, at whose center sprawls the blind idiot god Azathoth” he’s all powerful and exists outside space and time (a place that isn’t a place). But also, our reality is but an imagining of his. To wake him, is to destroy reality
The shaman's journey through the different parts of the cosmos is symbolized by the hamingja concept of the shape-shifting soul, and gains another symbolic dimension for the Norse soul in the account of Oðin's ravens, Huginn and Muninn
Odin's ability to send his "thought" (Huginn) and "mind" (Muninn) to the trance-state journey of shamans.
I already saw that symbol. Is it in ED ?
(Playing so many others space games.. [haha] )

Low-right quadrant: Hastur the Unspeakable, his Byaykhees and Carcosa/Aldebaran. Imho.

Hey,
im not much into the search for Raxxla,
just read you cheack systems and im in Eoch Pruae KY-I d9-2322 rigth now.. was on my way from colonia to sag A

Iirc Hastur is said to rest at Fomalhaut at least in the RPG sourcebook. Hm. "the place that ist no place. The myth." At least in Cthulhu RPG you are fighting the "myth" with your investigator. I have several sourcebooks at home. Perhaps I should look up some things.

While we're on the subject of Lovecraft.
He wrote a story called Polaris.
He also wrote Hypnos which featured a trip to the Coronae Borealis Constellation (Northern Crown.)
A rather small 7 star constellation, one of which is not in game, R Coronae Borealis.
If you go to 8 Gamma Coronae Borealis you will find the station, Love Enterprise.
Hypnos is a tale about a man and his friend, with an Olympian Brow, who go on other worldly adventures to places that the mind cannot conceive. (this is my own rough summary)

OMG! When you said One-Way you meant One-way! I didn't realize it was that bad! Thanks for checking Commander! Your sacrifice has eliminated an interesting system.
So the only way we have any exploration data on it at all is because you used to be able to double-neutron jump out?
I saw a mention in here of Astrophel and Stella and wanted to chime in:
In the fifth song:
…
I said thou wert most faire, and so indeed thou art ;
I said thou wert most sweet, sweet poison to my heart ;
I said my soule was thine, O that I then had lyed ;
I said thine eyes were starres, thy breast the milk'n way,
Thy fingers Cupid's shafts, thy voyce the angels' lay :
And all I said so well, as no man it denied.
But now that hope is lost, unkindnesse kils deliglit;
Yet thought and speech do live, though metamorphosd
quite,
For rage now rules the raines which guided were by
pleasure,
I thinke now of thy faults, who late thought of thy praise,
That speech falles now to blame, which., did-thy honour
raise,
The same key op'n can, which can locke up a treasure.
…
What, is not this enough ! nay, farre worse cometh here ;
A witch, I say, thou art, though thou so faire appeare ;
For, I protest, my sight never thy face enjoyeth,
But I in me am changed, I am alive and dead,
My feete are turn'd to rootes, my hart becommeth lead :
No witchcraft is so evill as which man's mind destroyeth.
Yet witches may repent ; thou art far worse then they :
Alas that I am forst such evill of thee to say:
I say thou art a devill, though clothd in angel's shining
For thy face tempts my soule to leave the heav'n for thee.
And thy words of refuse do powre even hell on mee :
Who tempt, and tempted plague, are devils in true
defining
You, then, ungrateful! theefe, you murdring tyran, you,
You rebell runaway, to lord and lady untrue,
You witch, you divill, alas, you still of me beloved,
You see what I can say ; mend yet your froward mind,
And such skill in my Muse, you, reconcil'd, shall find,
That all these cruell words your praises shall be proved
