New red-orange dot approaching the bubble at 0.8ly per minute-- Thargoid mothership?

Well, let's see. Considering Salvation was capable of developing a system reaching superweapon out of Guardian technology, we can assume Guardians were capable to do the same. And considering their xenophobic and violent nature they would readily use such superweapons to wipe out any civilization they would have encountered. In the Thargoid-Guardian conflict, the Guardian AI realized that allowing the Guardian race to prosper would lead to a complete annihilation of all sentient life in the galaxy and possibly all life in the galaxy when some war or another escalated as the civil war did where the parties were dead set on completely exterminating the opposing faction. So the AI destroyed the Guardians.
At least that's my take. And now Salvation has used this type of superweapon, which may have awoken the AI if they were dormant for millions of years. But at least he got us the (full) attention of the Thargoids.

All of which just strengthens my hypothesis that humanity is descended from Guardians! 
My initial thought was one of the few colony ships arriving at Sol at some time.All of which just strengthens my hypothesis that humanity is descended from Guardians!
But that doesn't match with what we know about our origins.
Maybe some genetic influence of the scientific way...
They're flying in formation.
The anomaly isn't one single vessel.
It's just that all the supercruise/hypercruise wakes combine to form the anomaly signature that we see.
They're flying in the "Cone/Spiral formation", like the Thargon swarm of an Interceptor does from time to time.
Shown above is the Oochorrs anomaly as I saw it on 1-SEP-2022. And to it's right a partial shot of AXI's info on Thargon mechanics.
Now the Anti Xeno Initiative wikipage on Thargon formations shows a side-profile of the swarm, so it isn't quite clear.
Just above is an animated GIF made from the vid of former-CMDR Kate's takedown of a Hydra in a Corvette, at 4m29s.
You can clearly see the twin-spiral formation of a 128 Thargon sized swarm.
Assuming the Thargoid Structures are recuperating motherships, or Titans, we might be looking at 128 of them in a single Anomaly.
And these Titans in the Anomalies are, in fact, fully armed and operational.
That would mean we've got 640 of them hitting the Bubble in about three weeks.

This could mean that an even bigger ship sits in the center of these anomalies...
But the blue of half of the arms of this formation... does this mean this is some Thargoid / Guardian hybrid formation?

Have we ruled out it being a Vogon constructor fleet? Edit: maybe the plans have been at Hutton all the time.

take a closer look at this image.
there is very good reason I complimented his photo, and his next post in the thread is a vogon ship. which this does look a lot alike from this view.
so hard to say what it really is, but I can see at least a couple variations of a space station.
if it is Thargoid and is a station, considering the size of thargoids, that's a big station/ship
you may be right about the formation to a degree though, I think there are a few more.
I'll save you the trouble of editing the image to see what I mean.....

Well, that should be enough for anybody.
Those structures that can be found on the surface of some planets / moons, how big are they in relation to Thargoid ships?
Is there anywhere a size chart for them?
I'm trying to adjust my mental image of all of this while never having seen one of them myself, yet.
Now’s the time to take a look, cos I doubt you’ll be able to fly anywhere in the bubble come mid November...
I’m evacuating to Raxxla!
Edit
They are BIG!!!

Sometimes if you're lucky, an interceptor will come pay a visit to a structure after you've activated the "device" (with a probe, sensor and link). The structure is much larger.
So, perhaps the spiral hologram produced by the machine in Thargoid “Surface Sites” ( aka Mycoid-infected Titans?) isn’t their home galaxy, perhaps it’s their flight training sim for the baby goids as they hatch?

They are big, you say. Well, I figured as much, as I have seen SRVs driving around in them. But my mental image of the size of all the Thargoid vessels is still quite crooked.
To be honest, I am quite far away from that day. I do not think I have been anywhere near anything Thargoid, yet. Unless the feature categorized as "other" on that planet I recently mapped was from them...
As far as I have seen them in videos from other commanders, this hologram does look quite three-dimensional. With a lot of dots in them. If this would all be ships in a formation, these UIAs would be quite a lot bigger with thousands of vessels in each arm.So, perhaps the spiral hologram produced by the machine in Thargoid “Surface Sites” ( aka Mycoid-infected Titans?) isn’t their home galaxy, perhaps it’s their flight training sim for the baby goids as they hatch?
I always suspected that map was simply their gardens
These would be the utter envy of many english gardeners.
an anaconda fits almost perfectly inside them, in the center piece(not counting the corridors, height was about 1.5 times as high inside the same center
you could probably pile 20-30 cutters in a pile and that would be about the size of the center.
each wing is several condas long.
they are similar size to many of the very large planetary stations if you include the wings and you should, they are huuuge.
you should go visit one some time.
I have been to many and I still waste a ton of time just exploring because they are soo big and it is just weird seeing bug parts bigger than buildings, plus I am always looking for that something no-one else has seen yet.
the insides are fascinating. I have described it a bit in this and other threads, mostly because of one guy claiming thargoids didn't exist, yet that's what is in the center of these ships. aka thargoid device

Possibly except those having an inner city garden needing to be tended.
The largest station I have seen so far is the Orbis... But I always had the feeling there would be bigger
The 'Conda works as a measure, though, as I have seen some of them very close...
Those mercs can be such posers, sometimes. Drop in at you while you are docking at an outpost...
One day I will hit the boost while one of them casually cruises right into my flight path to the station, mere meters away from the tip of my ship... One day...
I thought more of the professional kind that build these amaz(e)ing gardens in the english countryside...
Altough these poor sods with an inner city garden might be even more envious about those Thargoid gardens. All that space.
Anyway, thanks for a little laugh. Much appreciated.
