Not that I'm aware of. Miacke was the Thargoid homeworld you went to deliver the cure - I compared the maps (and although different) Miacke is very far away from the bubble in the direction of what we now know of as Col70 sector-ish.
Where the mycoid was spread was never specified, it was done "off camera". The player had the choice to deliver the cure or not, basically.
"Once you have docked, you are greeted by the Thargoids. They tell you about their mycoid problem (which was hinted at in the journals and in the short stories), and ask you to help them by stealing the vaccine from an INRA store in Hotice (-3,-2). This is one of those 'offers you can't refuse,' since the Thargoids will blow you up to keep their weakness a secret, so you'll be doing this mission..."
"You are told about the INRA mycoid vaccine store in Hotice (-3,-2),"
"When you have finally arrived in Hotice, ...and blow it up with your plasma accelerator ... and you should recall the machine, and set off for Miacke.
Upon landing back at the Thargoid space station you will be thanked by the Thargoids. Wait a little, and you will be offered a Thargoid warship as a reward."

EDIT: Basically you're working for the nascent alliance in FFE, and INRA is the bad guys, but since it's open-ended you can choose to go against the wishes of the alliance and not help cure the Thargoids - that's the ending the Fdev confirmed they are basing ED off.
EDIT: And for anyone interested, here's my comparison of the possible positions of Hotice in ED (it doesn't exit, but might be under a different name). https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/384808-Finding-a-NEW-INRA-Base-(Maybe)

Miackce could well be in COL 70 Sector. We don't know if the second Mycoid deployment in 3253 ever happened though.
All the bases found so far, has logs from the 3125 period.
So reading through the thread and doing some of the digging myself yesterday perhaps we are looking in the right system at this point but the wrong celestial body? I only ask this not because of ignorance but because INRA was a secretive group. Had something to hide. Given this and the fact that one of the clues pointed to a non land able planet/moon perhaps this isn't so far fetched.
Here is my reasoning:
1. We do transport missions sometimes they ask for it to be taken to a different location (sometimes in system sometimes not) who's to say INRA didn't use this tactic as a red herring type thing. "Oh yeah you are going to this planet in this system." then the pilot gets in system. "You are really going here."
2. The whole event surrounding HIP 7158 A 2 D and it actually being on HIP 7158 A 2 C. Perhaps it wasn't a typo? Perhaps it was intended as a sort of misdirection. Mainly because the nature of their work. The secrecy from inside of INRA and the military hush hush.
3. An organization like INRA would want to hide what they are doing. Because from the logs it sounds like they were moving into some super shady territory and people were beginning to question things.
I know this may be a reach but I wanted to put the idea out there.....it was in my head and made sense to me and perhaps it will to someone else. Will post more later but alas I am at work. Going to continue the search on the main planet of interest when I get home but am so very tempted to start looking at the other landables in the system.

I think the main idea behind the bases is to back fill the lore, and maybe even give us a true idea of what is canon in Elite Dangerous. I was, probably foolishly, thinking one of the bases may give us a solid link to the Sirius corporationWe shall see...
The thread was moved to the Aliens forum a few days ago. I stickied it and renamed it (to make it a bit clearer) today, once it became clear there is a trail emerging.
Thank you for the details
Where are you getting that date from? AFAIK none of the logs have been dated have they?
EDIT: and second deployment?

The link to Sirius corporation was strong in FFE. The main production fasility was called '
Inter-Gal/Sirius Medical Research Complex'.
Do you know what really upsets me about the people on this forum the most. When i out them for calling people cheaters i get reported to the mod team for inappropriate comments. Im so glad that frontier seem to think they can pick on those people who wish to weed out the forum whiners, the accusers and the slanderers of normal people who play this game. thank you frontier for my warning. this is me now taking my discoveries to a different forum where the moderation team are not power happy individuals. Oh and i did apologize to the person i had a go at, but it seems thats not good enough.
The logs are clearly from the early development of Mycoid. That was during the Thargoid war, at the time of Elite(3125 plus a few years).
The bombing of Miackce was one branch of the FFE story and took place in 3253-54, If at all.
Punish the masses for the actions of a few. Thought this was over and we were back to the topic at hand. INRA, lore and discovery.
It is interesting that Miackce is not a system. I'm thinking that the system and planet were buried by the military/government due to the actions that they performed.
I am beginning to think that possibly the Thargoids are doing to us what we did to them. By capturing escape pods perhaps they are developing a weapon against us.
No base has been found yet there.
Few pilots are there to try to find it, so if you want to help, you can go there and follow the suggestions EfilOne made (it is on the OP).
This planet is wide, so it will take much time to find the base. But maybe Frontier put the base on the edge of a big crater ?
1° -53,157 (XX, XXX)
2° -62,-44 (XX, XX)
3° 4, 133 (X, XXX)
------++++------
4° 11,177 (XX, XXX)
5° -44, -63 (XX, XX)
6° ??? (X, XXX)
Any chance its a clue?
The three first bases have the same amount of digits in the coords, negative or positive, the digits have a "pattern", the 4th and the 5th have the same pattern from the three before, maybe the 6th base the coords are in coord with 1 digit Lat, and 3 digits long, positive or negative, maybe its Crazy, but... Maybe its a pattern?

Ok, i'll see what i can do in the little time i have today. o7
really a lot of craters on this one.
But there is two craters much more bigger than the others, with others pilots we investigate a lot, and found nothing but it doesn't mean there is nothing, really hard to find base if not at 5km heigh...
Bases are visible from 20-30 km above if you set graphics quality to "low".
Do you have the sources for that? I can't seem to find info on these dates from the FFE journals or missions. There's a lot though so might have missed it.
There's a reference to "the bio-genetic attack of the 3150s" and links to INRA.
But then it also says that the Alliance were allies with the Thargoids, so not sure how much FFE lore we can entirely trust.
