Had already got the Graffias etc LP
I've found an odd planet. When using fss on the system, fss would find the planet but I could not focus on it or discover it until I got closer.
Turns out to be a landable terraformable metal rich world, which is mildly unusual in it's own right.
Flew around it a couple times and when in orbital cruise, the orbital lines of other objects jerked rapidly, which I dont remember seeing before, as per vid clip below.

Anybody seen anything like this? I might just be going space crazy. I have been in the black a long time now!

Yes, fairly sure I’ve seen that. Presumably a bit of instability in the math of the orbit markers together with your relative motion vector, possibly combined with a bit of graphics card overheating?
It’s damn hot Smithers!
It is. Its dreadful. 32 down my end if the country
not great for poor sods (like me) who medically cant go in sunlight and have to walk around with hoods over our faces and hands inside our sleeves looking like teenage yobs. Hey ho. (I have the "vampire disease" - for real)Sympathies! But look on the bright side-you don’t need to hire a Halloween costume!! 
I used to like the heat, but in my old age I find 22 to 25C nice and anything higher too uncomfortable.
The forecast for here was 32C, but my patio thermometer is currently saying 37C, in the shade
I shall be sleeping downstairs on the (leather) sofa again tonight! I know I got some sleep last night because I woke in the small hours with a cricked neck...but I’m pretty sleepy today.

What's wrong? You're landing planet.
Yeah. I flew around, drove around, failed to find anything Raxxla related. It was just odd. Both the failure to target in fss and the wonky orbital lines in OC.
I don’t know what it means but I have noticed that when scanning stars in fss to see if they have been already discovered or not but black holes are the only star’s I’ve seen that has a wave form in fss mode. has anyone found out why or what we are supposed to do with it?Ok, I’m getting somewhat bored by Raxxla hunting of late, so here’s my current hypothesis.
From Codex:
Several versions of the Raxxla story mention an alien artefact, the Omphalos Rift, described
as a gateway or tunnel through which parallel universes can be accessed. These details,
however, were later shown to bear a striking resemblance to the children's story Princess
Astrophel and the Spiralling Stars, and soon lost credibility. Undaunted, some Raxxla
seekers insisted that the story's author had cunningly concealed facts about the
mysterious locale in his book as hints for those with eyes to see.
We know of no such story, so it seems that may be an FD clue. It led to much discussion in this thread of Astrophel & Stella, Sir Phillip Sydney’s sonnets about his unrequited love Stella. In those sonnets IMO there are some significant phrases:
Astrophel and Stella sonnet extracts by Phillip Sydney circa 1580
(This is inferred from the “Astrophel”)
“When nature made her chiefe worke, Stella’s eyes, In collour blacke”
“onely those two starres in Stella’s face.”
“The windows (her eyes) through which this heavenly guest Looks at the world, and can find nothing that can lay claim To being the best when compared with them, are made of touchstone” (a touchstone is a dark stone like slate used by geologists in assay testing).
Inference: Raxxla (Stella) is a binary Black Hole.
Reasoning- Stella’s two (stars) black eyes; also binary black holes lose energy in the form of gravitational waves, spiral together and will eventually coalesce; DB has a keen interest in astronomy and would be aware of this fact since LIGO was often in the media when ED was in design. MB’s “you have to make some of it a tiny little bit obvious...There's nothing to be revealed at this stage”, well BH singularities are tiny and BH absorb all light so reveal nothing!
You can deduce BH binaries form Spansh bodies search, selecting subtype BH and checking their distance from the system entry point. Then check on EDSM. I had a list of about 30 within 2kylies from Sol.
I have investigated the BH binaries at HIP 38114 & HIP 63835 with negative results. The next on my list was HIP 18442, 621 ly from Sol near Pleiades, no discovery date reported. Might this explain the Thargoid-Guardian conflict? Fighting for control over a galactic superjump point (as I said previously, I suspect the sysmap anomalies spotted by Han_Zen are the exit points from Raxxla).
Just in case the Omphalos Rift mention was a hint that an alien artefact is required to open the gateway I took a holdful of Guardian (much more likely BH engineers than Thargoids) artefacts (Key, Orb, Relic, Totem, Tablet, Urn, Casket) and dropped these individually, then together, near the BH binary barycentre and at exclusion zone barriers within each BH, then tried looking through them and also charging them with lasers. I suspect the key is the most likely (“place that is not a place”= BH, “door that is also the key”->”key that is also the door”->ancient key).
But there’s only so much frustration a Jorki can stand, especialy since it’s so hot I’m not getting enough sleep!
Now must walk copawlot before we both melt!
Edit: well I melted! How the hound can look so bright & cheerful in this heat while wearing fur pyjamas I do not understand
Got a Video/pic example??
I’m currently at work but I can try to describe it. when you are in fss mode and you have the tuning slider at the bottom, above that but below the target star( black hole) there is what to me looks like a audio wave signal that looks similar to the ship signal thing on the bottom right of the hud just above where it shows if your mass locked.
I'll have a look next time I'm near a BH; may be some time-I'm pretty bored with them at the moment!
Before hunting BH binaries near Guardian space I was out diving BH singletons towards Star of India & beyond as part of the investigation into Han_Zen's system map anomalies.

I just happened to notice it myself out past colonia when tagging some. I haven’t tried it near the bubble and I just wanted to mention it.
Any body near a BH & want to test this observation?
I jumped to another BH, wave seems similar, however no circle around. 1st one had planetary nebula, maybe this circle is accretion disk

Wonder what the audio wave is like at sag a? I'll check it next time I'm that way
Interesting, never realised it was there! Any way of analysing that signal? Is it part of the BH audio? But if it were why is the BH the only object type that shows such a signal? Hawking radiation representation perhaps?
I think just part of BH visalization. For any other star we see "true" image. For BH is none. So they just made something cool loking.
Also that circle on 1st bh was pulsing ...from center to border it was going thin blue circle. Not too often. Like once a minute or so.
Also presence of circle may be because of distance. 1st was 120ls, 2nd was 2000+ls.

The whisper? Side though, has anyone run the fsd jump audio through a visualiser?
Hey all just another shout out on the RAXXLA/ Dark Wheel community event, which many of you are already aware of.
CMDR Kai Zen and company needs your help, as it gets progressively harder with each system we spread the Dark Wheel's influence to, as we tend to get spread thin.
In short? The goal is to push the Dark Wheel toward, or into Sol. Many naysayers said it wasn't even possible to get as far as we have. We weren't even sure that it was possible either...but now we know it is! Spreading the Dark Wheel's influence may just be the key to getting into one or more permit locked systems, the hope being.

Helping is easy and there are daily orders.
Play in whatever ways suits you best.
Combat
Basically just bounty hunt in the Dark Wheel owned systems and turn in the bounties. If doing bounty missions be sure you're only doing them for The Dark Wheel, naturally. Their controlled systems are currently LFT 926 and Anyanwu.
Alternatively you can bounty hunt in the above systems and hand the rewards in at HR 4979, where The Dark Wheel is in contest with the current controlling faction. Of course, this means you can also participate in the conflict zones in HR 4979, by siding with The Dark Wheel.
Non-combat
If you don't like combat? You can hand in exploration data at Anyanwu, or LFT 926, but as I understand Anyanwu needs it most right now. Obviously doing missions for only The Dark Wheel in both owned systems is also an option...this includes passenger runs for the Dark Wheel even. Again...whatever you like. Further details may be found above.
Let's turn the wheel and maybe find RAXXLA!
