The Quest To Find Raxxla

yelboc

For those interested in AHTW related searches, here is the sheet I dervied in January searching the then extant EDSM database for:

M class Star
Asteroid Belt
GG class III with 8th moons (in this case only Xh - not moons of moons etc.)

docs.google.com

GG8s Class III Mstar primary

docs.google.com docs.google.com

I'm planning a looser search without the 8th moons - just M+Ast+GG III

Please feel free to finish off the mapping in the sheet - I stopped after doing a few as most GG class III were Blue, and not Blue-Green - I wanted to find a B-G one to identify the type and the other attributes, but haven't really come across one.

I see there’s an Imperial call out for exotic goods for Harold’s funeral, including Lavian brandy. Two thoughts occur:
1) Good grief! it will push the price up and make it difficult to find on the supermarket shelves! and
2) What does he want it for? He’s dead! Perhaps they’re going to pickle him in it?
Gosh, what a way to go! 🤪 🥃🥃🥃🥴

If Raxxla is an alien structure in space (so it is of alien origin and accessible without horizons), what space structure would be more impressive than the Dyson Sphere? It may also have some sort of the "ringworld" section so people live there like on the paradize planet, as it is said in the original novel.

And if FDev were going to put Dyson Sphere somewhere in their RL-based galaxy, what place would be more obvious than KIC 8462852? Especially in 2015:)

There are 9 stations in ED with "Boyajian" in their names. Boyajian is an astrononer who discovered KIC 8462852 light fluctuations. Why so big honour for her?

KIC 8462852 can not be found via the galaxy map, and its other names too, but we know where it should be and its spectral class. So i have scanned all F-class stars in that area, and then L-class too in case if Dyson Spehere looks like L-star. Found nothing so far :(

Maybe I'm wrong, correct me, but don't you think that the developers are helping some factions of players in search of something new, solving certain riddles? For example, they give keys to decrypt the signal, or hint to them how to do it, or help with the search for anomalies. I just mean that I am afraid that they will help them find raxxla...

By the way: Is "blue/green gas giant" a body type that is displayed in the system map or is that only a description of how the GG may look?

Having a new insight on the toast, it isn't a map to find Raxxla, but a map to find their station. This may invalidate the idea of being near the 8th moon of a gas giant.
The toast itself is one of a elegant prose describing the system in which to find the station.

To the jewel that burns on the brow of the mother of galaxies!
Star orbiting black hole?

To the whisperer in witchspace, the siren of the deepest void!
I'm not up on my exploring, don't black holes whisper/sing? Or is that a NS?

The parent's grief, the lover's woe, and the yearning of our vagabond hearts.
Two planets in orbit of eachother, never to embrace?

Well yes when you put it like that, I mean, well....

I tried HIP 1984, I thought that was the obvious one :)

Dont worry, I think the fdev led ones (UAs, Guardians, Thargs etc) were all aimed at the community at large with GalNet and videos & LS. There have been hints given on the forums to threads that are either getting real close or have hit a dead end and seem to have stopped. I dont think they will 'leak' to a specific group as much as to a specific place if there are any clues (maybe clues to DW, none to Raxxla) eg Twitter, FB, these forums ( lol couldn't resist it), LS hint or clue, maybe even some magazine article to be found.

its also unlikely that anything of any interest won't be found by someone and eventually posted on the forum.

I like this interpretation of system bodies or planets.

The parents grief - dead son / dead Sun (LYT?)
The lovers woe - binary orbiting never to meet or separated by a BH or god forbid 2 asteroid fields that used to be planets?
The yearning of our vagabond hearts - gravity pulling them into BH?

So, have you tried running any anagrams of “Chief Technician Rory Webster”?? 😉

You know my weak spot lol anagrams and playing with words

Chief Technician Rory Webster - We Buy Any Car? No that cant be right....Chefs Try Nice Cat Feet In Wei....

Its worse than we ever imagined! Must be them felines from 1984! So we are looking for 'Wei' to rescue some cats...well its a journey :)

Rocsa cybercentre!
No wonder we can’t find it- we’ve been spelling it wrongly and it’s in virtual space-Han_Zen’s Guardian AI hypothesis confirmed?

(Or it’s Rocsa Fire in the Ice, so either a famous diamond (presumably stolen by the Winking Cat, clearly named Wei!) or an Icelandic volcano, mmmmmm !)
😉🧐

Edit: this is getting silly! Sergeant-Major, get some discipline into these men!!
Defence against a pointed stick classes anyone?
