Anyone considered that the UAs scan the ships scanning them but maybe they scan whatever they are stored in (the station) Maybe the station and the local NPCs are imitations from Thargoids/Aliens in order to test out infiltration tactics
I have found Jaques Station!

the beacon is part of the background simulation mechanics, but its a good symbolic planting of the flag for another bubble closer to the core

a good staging ground for different content and alien stuff
So...what's the value of doing rare trading from jaques station to the bubble? =P
I think I've heard that before. Sometimes it's just lateral thrusters, or ship noise. But if you turn your engine off and just float in space, you will hear all kinds of clicking and chatter too. Mix it all together, and it sounds very insect like.
And on the first misty DW waypoint, I heard the insect noise while I was landed in a very thick misty green crater. Quite spooky. Turned out to be just normal background noises though.
Well done OP great find.
Second this should see the OP as the first person with three or even four pips but still mostly harmless .

We will need more than a week for that community goal.
Or perhaps a whole chain of community events.
1 - Get X commanders to Jaques within X Weeks (also, it's summer and vacations so not a good idea.)
2 - Mine for materials to repair basic services at Jaques
3 - Collect mineral samples from planets for review
4 - Mine materials for planetary base
but who is gonna be our king of the north?
Great find commander, was the system showing population before you went there?

lets drag it out a bit more, adding a nearby colony to quince which is the closet human settlement, or the pioneers collective colony which has been coming for a while
As far as where jacques is the nearby nebula might be a soiurce of barnacles come meta alloys and that might give an economic interest to drive development
It looks to me like the OP has found the station before ED intended! No obvious external damage showing, NPC trading ships and a nav point ?!?
The last points in particular don't make sense - if NPCs were docking there then its been *found* already surely - so I suspect FD were not done tweaking this and didn't expect anyone to discover it yet. Kinda weird that they didn't put it under permit lock if they weren't ready yet though.

I'm currently filling an Anaconda with 288 Meta alloys at Maia, with only 7 every 10 minutes it'll take a while...

yes it now encourages the devs to give explorers more content than they mgiht have otherwise had planned

The EOL PROU nebula within 40ly of the station quite possibly has barnacles and meta alloys ..... so there might be a more local source, that search will happen once more commanders arrive
Agreed, many people would find this a game more engaging if there was more for explorers to discover.
I have seen no confirmation the "lost" generation ships are out there, but they would be an awesome first step.

are there any barnacle hunters in the nearby nebula, or those planning on doing that particular aspect of the search and investigation ??
Is there a link anywhere to Jacques logs?
