The Quest To Find Raxxla

If I'm not mistaken the panel where modules are controlled is disabled when the countdown for the FSD begins.
With 2.2.
“Even after it was discredited....”
I The Dark Wheel it says: "on Raxxla there's an alien construct that's a gateway to other Universes".
Construct is the same word FD uses for the sentient Guardaian AI. I doubt that that's a coincidence.
A two million years old, hyper advanced synthetic species that viped out their own creators and left without a trace.
With the Monolith network still fully operational, they are probably not gone. They could well have made all kinds of artificial universes and still be in the Milky way.
It's funny you should mention this, because (a LONG time ago) I recall a topic talking about that exact galaxy. For some reason I remember it as the "spinning top galaxy", but using google-fu I cannot find a reference to it now. It looks like a colliding galaxy - so I refer to others here about which galaxy it is. How come nobody has not noticed this before?
Possibly, but that I guess would be virtual universe(s), not the real universe. FD definitely said there is only one universe in ED.
But the Codex says the Omphalos Rift theory was discredited, which seems like a big hint from FD. Still think that any gateway relating to Raxxla is just part of the myth, i.e. it may not be true, or may be only partially true. Hence my previous speculation on an old station named “Raxxla Gateway”, or guardian or thargoid planet-ship (since a ship is a type of gateway taking the inhabitants to different places, etc.
I agree that the Guardian AI is highly likely to be still around. I suspect the number of permit-locked large areas of space (got another one to get around this week on last leg to Beagle Point) means there are (1) several disparate groups of them &/or (2) other alien civilisations yet to be found. Thargoids still exist, so Guardians may also. Just so long as its not the bug blatter beasts of traal!
You might want to raise this with Erimus Kamsel or Dr Kaii since they seem to have been behind much of the galactic mapping efforts
Can this help to refresh your memory?
It's not discredited if Princess Astrohphel and Spiraling Stars contains concealed facts about Raxxla's location. Some tried to discredit it, because "these details [...] bear a striking resemblance to the children's story".
Edit: It's not a virtual, but parallel universe.
Regor Sector (parallel to the Guardian sites) is still permit locked, as is much of the Horse Head Nebula which has a totally bizarre, bottom of a cube like star formation within it.
Edit: Collecting reference system names, standby...
Corner 1: Oochorrs AH-Q C20-6
Corner 2: Col 70 Sector PC-U C3-2
Corner 3: Col 70 Sector DA-Q D5-11
Corner 4: Col 70 Sector BR-C C13-0
Note: Can't get in most of them, obviously. Set bookmarks and view in Galmap

That wasn't quite the point I was making. There is a definite hard edge within the perimeter marked above where the system density within is significantly greater than what is seen just outside. Handy link, ty
The story was discredited by people who don't know where Raxxla is. Some other people that don't know where Raxxla is, believe the author of PAaSS knows and has left hints.
Both opinions are made by people who are more or less as clueless as us.
I don't think virtual, parallel or other universes make much of a difference either. The story is vague enough for all to fit.
That could still be "parallel" in terms of the original 84 Elite that had eight galaxies, so maybe 4 and 8, or 3 and 6 while it seems all of them may be contained within the same Milky Way in the current version.
Edit: In 84 Elite it cost 5000CR for every galactic jump and the drives themselves were hard to find, tech level 10+ I think, so being able to cover half the 'map' from galaxy 4 to 8 in a single hop, or even being able to select which one of the eight you wanted to go to would be a huge time, cash and effort saving.

Thanks CMDRs, apparently it's how Andromeda looks before the image has been 'cleaned'. That puts that to rest!
