My first discovery...

Hey guys, just started my long trip to god knows where. After around 6k lys of Sol i found a nice planet with nice mats so i decided to go down. After 30 min. and about to call my ship back i spotted a strange signal and found that. Is it rare? Any purpose? i didnt see one besides taking my selfie with it. Thx

Some of them can be scanned and you can sell the data to whichever power it belonged to. They aren't particularly rare but not that common either. Mostly it's just scenery but also something to give you an idea what to look for if you're looking for manmade objects. You might come across outposts, wreckage, caches of cargo or even mining rigs if you are still in human space.

i tried to scan it but i think it wasnt working. when locked it said: public data or something like that

To scan it, it has to be targeted. It looks like you did that. Use your secondary fire button to do the scan. Sometimes, you need to go into turret mode.
 
It's a crashed navigation beacon. You can find them all over the galaxy. I believe if you scan it, it'll give you some data-mats and a small package of "intelligence" or some such which you can sell at the designated superpower.
