The Zurara could have been sent on a mission to SMAIDAU systems [The mystery of formidine rift]

Carlos Sagan · May 3, 2020

Greetings commanders, I am Carlos Sagan, one more explorer after the search for raxxla.
I speak Catalan and I am not very good at English, so excuse me if the translation is not 100% correct.

I learned, after finishing reviewing the results of my last scan for raxxla, a difference from others, this time I think he found clues to the whereabouts of raxxla, or rather part of the mystery of the formidine crack. That is why I am obliged to declassify the final report of my exploration "on the other side".

You can view the report translated into English here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/606gln3c6e64rb2/OPrxl_in.pdf?dl=0
It is loaded in a pdf, since it occupies 20 pages, so I do not think it is convenient to put everything as a single publication.

To the important

After a detailed analysis of the scan and seeing the results as a whole, I think it rubs against something.

Apparently, as I got closer to the heart of SMAIDAU, it was easier to find prosperous planets for life.

That is why I declassify this document and appeal to crack explorers to investigate the heart of SMAIDAU.

The reason why SMAIDAU systems, and not others, are explained in the report.

Here are some global images from different points of view of the SMAIDAU systems to try to show the best I want to say.

Smaidau is located just after the formidine rift, exactly at the end of the galactic arm.

The POIS in the images are living systems ON THE FORMIDINE RIFT!

During the exploration I was able to observe how the group of systems were virgins not discovered by anyone.

Really good post, thanks for this. I came back from about 2 months in the Rift in February, but this is making me want to head back out there

Vasquess · May 3, 2020

It has been a long time since I've seen such a fine piece of serious exploration. Thanks and congratulations for this.
Though Drew Wagar said that his work on the Formidine Rift for ED was not related to Raxxla this does not imply that Raxxla cannot be linked to the FR. So perhaps… who knows? And I also think I remember that Drew also stated in one of his threads about the story, that not everything was found in the Rift.

Nice work, & interesting Carlos

(and only a few very minor grammar errors

, bar calling the Formidine rift the Formidine crack once, 4th line

).

thanks for the invitation ^^, unfortunately "or luck" I cannot afford a ship carrier for now, but it will be a pleasure to cooperate with the community! what if! I would love for some carrier to move towards SMAIDAU in order to continue investigating and to be able to shed light on whether or not there really is final evidence that the zurara was there.

who knows what we can find ^^

The FleetComm Deep Space Support Array (DSSA) will be putting two carriers in the Formidine Rift. If you are on discord i can put you in contact with them.

Cool

, be worth cross posting that in the Formidine Rift thread.

ObsoleteRobot · May 19, 2020

Nothing has ever been mentioned as to the other ships for Project Dynasty (at least that I've seen) other than "presumably met similar fates", has there? I've found myself wondering if more of these ships are still out there.

Assimilator1 · May 28, 2020

As far as ED itself, not a lot, we do know from the Dynasty logs that at least one ship received the Zurara's distress call, and seeing as we don't have logs from all the ships it's likely others received it. I and others have speculated in the Formidine rift thread, that after they received that message they went dark & did indeed return to the bubble. Despite TOWs claim (from the logs in the bubble, where Salome was heading to in her demise) that none of them made it back, this is implausible as it would be impossible to monitor every single system all the time for every single ship (was it hundreds mentioned in one of the logs?). Even if they had trackers on the ships, I'm sure the crew on some of them would have removed or disabled it. So personally I believe at least a small number made it back from the Formidine rift side*, but we will probably never hear about it as they wouldn't want to come forwards!
*AFAIK we don't know how far the Zurara's signal went, so possibly it never went beyond the Form Rift?

What/Where is Raxxla?

From your PDF it seems you think Raxxla lies beyond the Formadine Rift. However in the recent Lore tour, Drew explicitly stated that Raxxla is not what the Zurara found.This is further eluded to by his belief (as he does not know) that Raxxla is "somewhere near Sol." As the author of the two books, you'd hope he wouldn't throw such a lie into the mix.

Carlos Sagan · Jun 2, 2020

In no case do I affirm that Raxxla exists at X point, the PDF talks about the mystery of the formidine rift and I conclude that most likely in the SMAIDAU systems part of the mystery of this can be found, being an area where the Zurara was on a mission.

I don't know what raxxla is, I don't know if it's a specific area, a specific object, or a specific area of the galaxy.

The big problem with Lore de Elite Dangerous, especially for me a Catalan speaker with few notions of English, is that it is difficult to investigate it, have the sources and a chronology. There is much work to bring order to this investigation, and many exploratory failures come from mixing mysteries, which may or may not be related.

In my case, I think you have to separate the mystery of raxxla, and the formidine rift taking this the mystery of the zurara.

Exekrator · Jul 4, 2020

Drew Wagar stated that Raxxla is not related with the Zurara and the Formidine Rift. Your search for Raxxla out there is a dead end.

Already addressed, above, however there is a lot of consistency with the mythology (both mention Cassopiae and Andromeda, for example), and it's not impossible that FDev have Retconned Raxxla into the FR storyline

This is exactly why ED is better than real life...

Alkibiades · Jul 4, 2020

Just discovered this thread. I havent seen galaxy map screenshots with cubes on it in a looooong time.... the eafots search was something else back then...

Regarding your pursuit I have to disappoint you. You discovered the very reason why the club chose this area as a potential go to area of space if the bugs had overrun us. The entire purpose of the zurara - and keep in mind that it was the only ship that had an escapee; the others were very likely flown into suns with zero survivors - was to find what you found. Systems with planets suitable for human life pretty far away from sol.

[/ CITAR]

Maybe yes, maybe not, with all the systems visited I did not find signs that someone had been there, and I did not even explore the center of SMAIDAU, which is where the anomaly becomes stronger.

Currently I am cryonic, if someone decides to go and find something, I hope to find out here, otherwise I will go to another time, that I am busy in the refrigerator. : D

Give the joystick? I think translation has failed you there

Both those points are unproven, the Zurara managed to get a signal out, we know at least 1 of the other ships received that signal and it's likely others did too, so it's possible that at least a few managed to overcome their 'security' detail (and disable any tracking devices) and then quietly slip back into the bubble. And yes I know TOW claimed otherwise, but if they came in running 'dark' she wouldn't know either!

It's a long shot I know, but it's not disproven either (until if Fdev do/say something about it).
AFAWK none of the ships were flown into a sun, 1 accidentally flew too close to a white dwarf or a black hole (I can't remember which), but that was it, so I'm not sure where you got that from

, I'm not saying it's impossible though! Just that there is no evidence of it so far (IIRC

).
