I found a second Anomaly signal!

[Ian Doncaster]

It's not impossible that it set off from GS-X b45-0 on Thursday and the reason it wasn't detected earlier is that it wasn't making a noise earlier.

Hmm. Tinfoil time.

We first detected the Oochorrs one about 18 days after the Proteus Wave event, coming from a system about 1800 LY from HIP 22460.
We first detected the Slegi one about 30 days after the Proteus Wave event, coming from a system about 3000 LY from HIP 22460.

What if the noise heard after the Proteus Wave was a call originating in the HIP system, broadcast omnidirectionally (and therefore heard with high intensity by the survivors in that system) which is now spreading out at 100LY/day and encouraging flares to activate and come to have a look?

Extrapolating backwards is even trickier since we have no good idea when it set off and still a fairly poor idea of how fast it's going. It's not impossible that it set off from GS-X b45-0 on Thursday and the reason it wasn't detected earlier is that it wasn't making a noise earlier. If it's been travelling a while ... then still probably somewhere well below the plane in this part of the galactic arm, but further out from the bubble.

The extra signal in the FSS would have been spotted pretty fast - I can believe no-one spotted it since this Thursday, but not for longer than that - there have been threads complaining about the single extra signal since that appeared with the first Stargoid. Whether there is any lore reason for it to be out here ... I think we may just have to wait

(Nice tinfoil post if we get a third then it should be even further out )

So in effect Salvation set off a massive DoomRipple?

 

[ebbrell]

Like a distress call, moving accross the systems. What's responding is the worry
Things are going to get creepy, love it

Honestly I always check in every system I jump into, I FSS, then make sure I have all the signals accounted for, except of course when in the bubble with dozens of FC's and USS's and etc. When out in the black I check the totals every time. I was just reading the forums prior to logging in when the post went up about the first extra signal and lo and behold, there it was as soon as I logged in. I was actually playing when the second signal appeared, I would have noticed it almost immediately, it was literally from one system to the next, and when I checked on the forums a few minutes later the post about the extra thargoid star had just been posted, I think the discovery of the extra Thargoid star and the extra signal appearing was a pretty close if not immediate happening, and it looks like the thargoid star was discovered pretty quickly, there were enough players scanning around for the original for someone to stumble on it quickly.

Not quite immediate.
I'd been following the signal for roughly an hour before I posted about it, I wanted to make sure that it was actually a new signal that I had found before I got anyone hyped about it.

Let me check time, yes I posted roughly 46 minutes after you first posted, now just to clear the first system I jumped into I spent a lot time in checking all the planets and scanning and mapping everything just to be sure there was nothing else there before I saw your post, do we assume a propagation time or possibly user error on my part as to when I first saw the extra signal? It's easily possible I spent a lot more time checking and mapping than I thought, you know what it's like cruising around in SC and mapping planets, lots of minutes go by without realising it, so there's a big lump of leeway there!

Now we just need to wait for a 3rd extra signal to appear, then start looking for another thargoid star, and no I am NOT going to call a thargstar!

Another thing that caught my attention in this chase, apart from Thargstar, is that the region where the 2nd thargstar is seen is "one of the less explored places". I thought this place was discovered because it's close to zurara.

I should exploring here sometime.

Yeah that is interesting, I mean are there Thargoid worlds out there we have no idea about?

I do not think so. But I wouldn't be surprised if I came across locked areas during exploration.

Unfortunately my squadron is calling back for BGS duty. I will come to explore sometime ....

It's relative - Slegi and Oochorrs both have around 70000 stars catalogued on EDSM for their H-size region cube - but Slegi is in one of the thicker parts of an arm, while Oochorrs is mostly inter-arm gap, so that's a lot more uncatalogued stars in Slegi than in Oochorrs. Lots of people went through Slegi on the way between the bubble and Heart+Soul / Eafots / Rift, but generally not dipping this far down below the galactic plane in the process.

Also, most people seemed to stay above the plane - checking the numbers, Slegi is somewhat less catalogued than Hegeia above it, while as you get closer to Eafots, the above-plane regions are catalogued 3-4 times as well as the below-plane ones - and perhaps head further west to pass through Sleguae/Hegua instead.

 

[SolaceOpossum]

Noticed that the second anomaly is almost directly between the bubble and the Heart and Soul nebula, gonna explore a bit around there and see what I can find.
The neutron field about 500ly below the anomaly made the journey a bit less painful, I forgot to bring an AFMU though and my FSD is already starting to crap out.

I'll let you know if I find anything of significance.

 

[ruifo]

Anomaly #2 today, has past through Slegi JD-W b46-0, and onwards to the Bubble
Seems like going from Slegi JD-W B46-0 => Slegi SP-E d12-5

 

[denispage]

Two cmdrs saw this close the rogue signal (in Slegi JD-W b46-0)

 

[Kerissimo]

Have anyone seen the maximal detection range for that STARGOID signals? You know in case there are more of them outside of detection range. From what i seen the second one can be detected from where the first one is or was yesterday, and that will be ~3k LY.

is THAT inside STARGOID ?

 

[Raino]

reading the crash report clearly states the titan itself is missing

Dropped in the rogue signal and nothing...

how to find it:
go to System Slegi JD-W b46-0 mark a jump to Slegi SP-E d12-5, enter in SC and try to find the signals using fss.
Rogue Signal appears as a POI.
Very hard to drop on it as is fast moving object.

I can hear it from the Swoilz sector, its very quiet but its there. Distance is about 4300ly.

 

[denispage]

We don't know yet, but maybe there is something inside.
Some crash reports showed the name .
Now, you can reach the rogue signal, but If you drop, there is nothing there.
