Alien archeology and other mysteries: Thread 9 - The Canonn

Okay so now, to be 100% clear. (...) I am roleplaying
What I am saying is, discussion of the CG doesn't belong here in the thread.

Neither does RPing belong here in that case. Remember how a moderator pointed it out to the guy RPing that this is a burial ground? My white is whiter than your white?
RPing does not contribute much to the thread, it's just fluff and often disorienting. However discussing aspects and potential outcomes of a CG that is an end result of a chain of Canonn discoveries seems more on topic.
(and to be fair - that discussion is a form of RPing as well)

The CG is not Alien related nor is there any more detective work to do.

To which you have no evidence to make such a statement. What if Kohl (=narcotics CG), Dillon et al plus their dead comrades belong to the Revolution? That would connect the dots of revenge from the decoded message.
Biological weaponry (mycoid virus) was used against Thargoids in the past to render them incapable of interstellar travel. This CG is about virocide (virucide) - so another possible connection there.

Oppenheimer helped build the A Bomb. He used his scientific knowledge as part of a team to create a devastating weapon. Politics then used it.

Oppenheimer was sickened with remorse and guilt after Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The entire team was supposedly working on a limited-theatre military objective deployment. Many of the contributing scientists fled the military and went into teaching universities after the two drops.

25 October 1945
Oppenheimer: “Mr. President, I feel I have blood on my hands.”
Truman: “The blood is on my hands, let me worry about that."

Truman then ejected Oppenheimer from his office and instructed Secretary of State Dean Acheson never to bring “that son of a       in this office ever again.” [witness-supported] He also called Oppenheimer "the cry baby scientist."

Oppenheimer warned that “we have made a very grave mistake” in contemplating the massive use of the weapon; and that “in some sort of crude sense…the physicists have known sin.” He spent years after the war in trying to get a nuclear consensus and controls. He tried to obstruct the development of the hydrogen bomb and it brought about his political disgrace and downfall, branded by Joe McCarthy as a Communist spy.
 
I dunno, you spend one day playing another game besides ED and you miss yet another discovery!

I am sure it's already been said but a crashed alien vessel along with 3 T9s and 2 Anacondas???

Some of the ships appear to have damage from weapons fire.

And food cargo scattered around???

https://drive.google.com/uc?vie=export&id=0B8ck-2ELKOuLaWh5b0ZabzZwYUU

It doesn't make much sense, the first thought is to call it a food shipment for one of the Pleiades bases but the wreckage is further out than the furthest known base, meaning there's nowhere it could have been carrying food to!

And the weapon's fire? It implies a fight, but between the aliens and the Condas/T9s? Or did a third party ambush both?

If it was a battle between the alien vessel & Condas then it might be a clue as to how strong this particular class of alien vessel is?


As an aside I so so wish Frontier had put some skeletons in the T9 cockpits!

It's the little details guys. :)

Damn. Now i know where that Picture comes from - it's the Back of that T9. But what the fracking hell is it doing in a Video of Ghost Giraffe?! Can anyone explain to me, if and not, then how that picture ended up showing as a Flash of the UP's EMP?! :O Especially, since that was about 3 Months ago!
 
Rather than blindly stumbling forward, is there any way to get more information as to what happened a year ago?

Also UA bombing might damage the containment of the virocide... is an acceptable outcome?

plus if that does happen how does it interact with the UAs?

No, sorry, I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about.

+1, repped.
 
There was clearly an impact between this T9 and the alien ship. Part of it is lodged in the hull .... so they were chasing after each other to say the least.

Hmm.. this sounds an interesting idea.

The T9 and the alien ship were transfering something from one to another... food supplies for an alien probe for example, collided and crashed, the anacondas land, deploy SRVs to recover the resources and then something else blows them all to hell.

Which begs the question, who/what are the aliens and who benefits from stopping trade between us and them?

Regarding Jaques - after the misjump there was a lot of player support for trying to make it a new human bubble. We though that was a cool idea and are actively trying to support that goal.

Michael

I'm a bit late here, but is it *possible* that someday Jaques might get the urge to his original destination of Beagle Point?

Heck, maybe there's opportunity for a *third* human bubble out there...albeit much sparser than the EOL nebula!

I just found that original idea to be very awesome - "the bar at the edge of the galaxy" - sort of a treehouse refuge for anybody who actually manages to make it out that far.

I'll be honest, my urge to visit Beagle Point dropped quite a lot when I found out Jaques is staying elsewhere in the galaxy instead....

A few thoughts on the new crash site. A few clues are missing imo:

1. There are no occupied escape pods on the ground (usually there are) but not important i guess

2. None of the T9 or Anas appear to have active data points (you usually get them ) but not important i guess

3. If an alien ship brought them down, where is the green glowing damage like in the guardians trailer and the desteoyed ship (was a cobra i think)? No evidence of that kind of damage anywhere , shouldnt that be present?

4. There are unknown fragments scattered. We only get those if we shoot at the UP correct ? And there are few dead probes around . So someone was killing the probes and the collector alien ship appeared? Or the T9 had them on board?

5 In the 2nd alien crash the probes were morsing their location correct; and i got the feeling the alien ship went there to collect them . Same case here maybe? although when the alien ship got there the people from the human ships they were already collecting them or even had them on board and the alien ship brought them down?

Just a few thoughts
 
Heres another idea, we have yet to find any thargoid ( other alien ) colonies just yet now that could be interesting.

Ever since the Red Wizard rightfully scolded me for repeating an unconfirmed rumor I have been more diligent with doing my homework of background checks.
https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteSirius/comments/3rvk4z/thargoids_lore/ has a good write-up of all things Thargoid, however Drew Wagars definitive guide has been down for a while now.
As hard as I tried to find a copy of it somewhere it seems to have vanished without a trace. Probably connected to some potential discrepancies between the "old" and "current" Thargoid time/eventline that suits ED.

So to answer - Thargoid colonies are quite likely to be located in the Ammonia Worlds which are inaccessible for us; and due to the virus rendering them "flightless" they haven't been able to peek out of them much - until recently.

it should be remembered frontier have thrown a lot of the old lore and information out the window, its all new and evolving, so anything is still possible if Frontier determine it to be so. But i think yes certain core things may remain similiar to the way they were and theres a reason ammonia terristrials are a class of planet in the exploration rewards

Have you checked the Front Page?
There is an extensive section related to Thargoids ;)

I don't know how things are where you all live, but my lawn is white, the thermometer is in the 'blue zone' and I have the flu.

Winter is here.

Of course! I don't start the day without checking the Front Page for updates - you're doing great work keeping track of all things.
The link is just a more condensed summary of the key points-- the FFE compendium takes a while to read!
 
Didn't see it on the Front Page:

CG to bring Pattern Delta Obelisk Data from the Synuefe ruins to Felice Dock in the Meene system. The campaign begins on the 3rd of November 3302 and will run for two weeks.

Appeal for Ancient Data

Since the mysterious ruins in the Synuefe XR-H d11-102 system were discovered last week, the site has become a hotbed of activity, with hundreds of explorers attempting to uncover the ruins’ secrets.

Now the engineer Ram Tah has announced plans to conduct a comprehensive research programme with the aim of learning more about the site.

At a press event, Ram Tah made the following statement:

“The discovery of the Synuefe ruins is hugely significant, and the site is unquestionably worthy of further study. Fortunately, United Meene Labour has graciously agreed to fund a comprehensive research project.”

“I am therefore in the privileged position of being able to devote myself to studying data from the site. It is my hope that by decoding this data, we can learn more about the civilisation responsible for the ruins.”

“Having conducted a preliminary survey of the site, I have determined that Pattern Delta Obelisk Data would of great value at this stage.”

United Meene Labour has promised to reward pilots who bring Pattern Delta Obelisk Data from the Synuefe ruins to Felice Dock in the Meene system. The campaign begins on the 3rd of November 3302 and will run for two weeks.
