These are likely places that Salome will be visting as part of some mysterious galactic plot. I doubt there's anything to find there at present. I was under the assumption that these places were planets.
Has anyone covered the Eridanus constellation here yet? After all, when phaethon was struck down his body fell into the Eridanus River which is a constellation, from Cursa to Achenar.
Guys. Zephyrum is the accusative. The possessive takes the dative in Latin, noobs! British schools have gone way downhill since Monty Python, haven't they. It should have been "Fibonacci's zephyro".
This just random musings but if the video said
"to make an end"
"is to make a beginning..."
and the end of all this of Fibonacci's Zephyrum is 0...
So we go back to zero....
"The River to the Underworld" which is Styx and we make a beginning.
The location of Styx apparently in Feneos which is in Greece and according to Wikipedia "Feneos lies at the foot of Mount Cyllene".
The wiki for "Mount Cyllene" says "The Pleiades" were born on Mount Kyllini.
Is zero the Pleiades???
My other interpretation was that Styx is being born and that Tethys is giving birth to Styx.
"Gaia's daughter all unfurled" Tethys who is gaia's daughter is "spread out??"
I don't know if this means anything at all or if I'm overthinking things lol but I'm sure we can crack this in time.
First thing: The mother of the MOTHER of Kronos. Chaos. Gaia was the mother of Chronos, and there above was Chaos.
Second: What, if anything, does the original Tionisla transmission have to do with this, as they both originated from the same area?

Can we please stop mixing Ancient Greek and Roman mythologies and vocabulary?
I must insist that no more Latin be allowed in this storyline after that Greek-dominated mystery poem ended in a botching of Latin noun cases—on a word of Greek origin! Zephyros means "west wind" in Greek.
Hmm what "wind" blows westward in a direction reminiscent of Fibonacci, if not the spiraling "wind" of a galaxy? It would tend to be at the start of the Formidine rift, that general part of the galactic current that moves westward.
CHILDREN OF RAXXLA - INTELLIGENCE TEAM DISCOVERY REPORT
April 17th 3303 - Tionisla Riddle Decoded
Several independent media outlets have received various holotapes from the mysterious organization, known as the Children of Raxxla, which provide evidence of the fate of a derelict megaship within the SYREADIAE JX-F C0 system. The holotapes provide telemetry and video recordings of the vessel as well as a message;
CoR Intelligence has decoded the Tionisla riddle, which provided them a system name. Upon that, a scout wing led by Commander Jackie Silver was immediately dispatched across the Formidine Rift to investigate. Upon arrival and investigation, we have determined this ship was part of the shadowy dynasty expedition. We believe the loss of the ships crew was an intentional act on the part of whomever launched the dynasty expedition based on evidence found at the site."
"We are not asking you to believe us on our word alone, we ask each and every independent pilot who believes that the truth is out there to investigate for themselves before this is covered up by those who wish this not to come to the light of day. In this we have provided the system's name, the ship's telemetry and all the data we have been able to gather so far to various media outlets."
"Fly safe Commanders and Remember..."
Several other media outlets have been quick to denounce the Children's findings as fabrications and conspiracy theories. They have also reminded the public that this organization is led by the imperial fugitive Salomé and that they should not be trusted.

The Zurara Comms & Logs Transcript
Below is the transcript of all logs found at the Megaship discovered in the system, named The Zurara. This is for ease of access. You'll also find the same transcripts, as well as screenshots of the logs in the link below, put together by Sajime Chent-Shi : http://imgur.com/a/E3M0M
It is highly recommended to go check out the place as well, the Logs have an audio version with voice acting as well !

RECORDING
We managed to overpower the invaders. but not before
they took out the main reactor. We're dead in space. with
twenty minutes of life support left. Didn't get nothing out
of them before they died, but clearly it was all planned.
They took a drug which killed them. Doc says it's
nicknamed 'Hexedit'. First it kills your memories, then it
kills you. Neat and tidy.
So we're dead, just waiting for the end. This will be the last
log from the Zurara. Some of the crew have already killed
themselves. Others are praying to whatever deity they
believe might help them. A few are drinking themselves
into oblivion. I don't know what will get us first the lack of
oxygen or the cold. Battery power is about to die.

RESUME
Me? I'm leaving this log. This far out I doubt anyone will
ever hear it, but well, what the hell?
We all signed up for the promise of big payouts, a year of
your life in exchange for enough to retire on. I guess I
should have looked closer at it, but you would have
probably done the same, right? No need to work again.
What's clear now is whoever was behind this mission
never intended for any of us to come back.
Damn, it's cold in here now.

RESUME
The folks managing the cargo, jees, they were all psychos.
The moment we completed the mission they just
'snapped'. Killed the ship and killed themselves. Some
kind Of mental conditioning. Doc said. We tried to get word
out to the other vessels when we found out. We got a
signal out. but I don't know if anyone received it. It will
probably freak them out. I don't think they know we're
here.
We dropped a series of beacons out here, all targeted
around Earth-like or terraformable worlds We prepped
some of the terraform candidates with seeders and
biofilters. No one can figure out why it was necessary. but
that was the mission. Just as we were turning back...
boom, those cargo-handlers went nuts.

RESUME
So that's it. We don't even know why we've been killed. But
someone out there knows. someone out there has blood
on their hands, a lot of it. If you figure it out. give them a
message from us. You know what I mean.
Funny. We were told there was something bad out here,
that it was haunted by ghosts...
I just never figured it would be us doing the haunting...
So this is what they were hiding. I'm leaving the old logs
for reference. I might need to come back this way again
and re-educate myself. Chances are my memory will get
zapped again. If I don't make it I'll have to leave clues for
others to follow. So, if you're reading this and you're not
me, here's the deal...
Found this ship. Took me years. This is the evidence.
Nothing inside but void-frozen cadavers, perfectly
preserved, some with drinks still in their hands. But the
log. They sent these poor souls out here because they
needed waypoints. all prepped for every eventuality. Three
different zones it would seem.
There's a conspiracy. Guess you figured that out already,
but it goes way up, way beyond the Feds, the Imps and the
Alliance. Something is coming, don't know what it is. but
it's bad and it's all being hidden. All this weird stuff far out
in the void? It's some kind of contineency plan. The
answer to why and who is back in the core, not out here.
That's where I'm going next Wish me luck.

END RECORDING
Video Report Shabooka is working on a video report, this thread will be updated with it soon.
Drew says don't over think it. So Fibonacci’s Zephyrum refers to zero, or the origin. That could mean the origin of the galactic coordinate system, or the origin of mankind, or both. Either way it means Sol.
So, why would Salome go to Sol?
As I understand it, she plans to release some great secrets to the Bubble. How is she going to do this? She needs a transmitter, and not just a ship transmitter. Presumably a ship transmitter isn't very powerful and the message has to go through relay links to go long distances. Otherwise, just broadcast from wherever she is!**
But she cannot use any official comm link because they are compromised by TPTB (The Powers That Be). Message goes in, gets encrypted and sent only to TPTB and no one is the wiser. So, she needs to link into one or more unregistered comm beacons.
And, if I recall, there are several such beacons in Sol.
This also probably relates to the ancient artifact found on Mars, of which we know nothing about. My guess is this is part of the mystery to unfold, and probably has to do with the Guardians.
So the rest of the message probably relates to the route she will be taking.
** OK lets forget for a moment that every ship has such impressive telecommunications capability that it can telepresence an entire crewperson into any other ship anywhere in the galaxy.
Wow – Rebecca. Should have seen that – next one Weston?
Huge reps to everyone who figured out the message, I was working on it, but frankly couldn’t keep up (even enlisted the help of one of my smaller hedgehogs who’s really into the Greek legends).
Anyhoo – just wanted to make sure the facts were really clear.
The forum post clue points to one location (and apparently, we’ve all missed a bunch of galnet clues here)
The video clue points to another location. And they are different.
Things I still can’t fathom. Why clue 29c – how many other clues did we miss? The Galnet clue only has 21…
<RP>
I agree with a bunch of stuff already alluded to: Salome has not always demonstrated the greatest decision making, but I ask all those doubters this… Seriously would you really throw your lot in with Petraeus, Aisling or Hudson (who let’s face it either had Halsey murdered or conveniently looked the other way). All I’m saying is this: Salome has made mistakes, but she’s motivated and moving in the right direction. Do we really think leaving it to the status quo is benefiting anyone? I may not agree with her on all things, but I know this: The empire has asked me to transport slaves, the feds have asked me to kill civilians. I may be sinister, but I’m not a monster. Come the 29th I’m with Salome. To quote an enlightened man from a long time ago “I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.”
<RP/>
I'm only a relative newcomer to the Rift mystery, but does this clarify what was in the Rift to find? Ship log 3/4 makes it sound like they had already started prepping terraformable worlds. Since the megaship itself would only have been added in the latest update, are the worlds what was findable in the Rift before now? Terraforming candidates showing something extra in their description?
