I am confused to why Fdev have not confirmed that site 2 is a duplication error.
I would be fine if they did.
Then i wouldn't waste time going to it.
Because they do not confirm it as a bug after 2 days at back at work makes me think its not a bug.
Which means I keep going there on my tests
Personally i have a few ideas,
1) the 2 identical sites may have more sites around, the 3rd site might be the only 1 of its type, and i think we will find at least another type of site design before we find anything like what we could call a city type.
2) These 2 might be skymaps of the local sky at a certain time, though with the 2nd ruins being identical to the first, either its moon/star rotation both follow the same orbital paths, and the distance to whatever constellation/stars are visible is that great that theyre the same from both sites, that would make great triangulation point though, as you might be able to find the extent of the possible places for that type of ruins to be.
3) These might all be an analogue of the table of elements, possibly might be something like the plaque placed on voyager 1, we are trying to guess the thought processes of an alien group (i dont mean the ancient aliens i mean FDev )
4) i think that a lot of this is being looked at with an analysis based thought pattern, unfortunately, this might be like comparing ancien sites on earth, eg Egypt pyramids with South American pyramids, but ignoring things like stonehenge that may have similarities, these sites may have multiple layers that need decoding.
5) I also think that a precursor site to the1st site found may exist, this having the possibly missing artifacts that may decipher other obelisks.
6) The species that is being investigated seems to work with triangular based geometry, which would also mean that there may be a numerical base. As a guess or the well overused "SPECULATION!" alert .... 3rd site if the first and there may only be 1 of them, based on the singular raised area, the 1st 2 found sites may be the 2nd layer of the triangle, with 2 sites, with 2 raised areas, the next site would be 3 of that type with 3 raised areas, (possibly a system with binary planet where 1 has a moon, leading to 3 stellar objects orbiting the planet where the site is)
I have other thoughts too, but these are the ones i think are closer to possible, also, as a further question, and as part of the UA/UP/UF segment of the whole subject, the last CG wanting unknowns was asking for Unknown Energy Systems, or UES's, i dont know if anyone has even found these as they have never been mentioned, i dont know if it was a typo when i read the CG but still, This could be the item that the Flowerships (unconfirmed but suspected Thargoids) are actually looking for, and maybe this should be actively looked for in the areas round Maia, probably in places noone bothers to go, rings of giants, asteroid clusters, things like that ....
