Thargoids and B class Stars

[Darkjayson]

Here is something I noticed, thargoids have some relation to B class stars.

It is not the only star type the thargoids are around but they do seem to be important to the thargoids.

The following systems are all B class stars

Maia - The center of research on Thargoids in the Pleiades Nebula
Marope - All the probes and sensors actually point to this system
Electria - The system where new Thargoids have been spotted in threat 6 signal sources.

In fact all the seven sisters of the Pleiades are B class.

Most of the other B class stars in the area have events such as distress beacons and stations in them.

It might just be that because of there rarity Fdev is using the B class as a good place to put stuff as they are sure people will go to these stars even so it is worth it to keep an eye out in the black for other B class starts and give them a look see if anything is there.

It's a really interesting idea.

You can filter the map by Star Type, maybe making a list and going to visit them and having a look round would give you more info?

If you can find links between Class B's and Thargoids post it on this thread too https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/381230-Thargoid-Data-Gathering-Effort-We-need-your-help!

One thing is wrong... probes are not pointing to MEROPE!

They have some interest in the Pleiades for sure, but it's unknown whether it's related to B stars or not. If anything, I think it's more related to the nebula itself.

The fact that there's a shell around the Pleiades that they've had activity in for over a year says much, as does the fact that there's been activity discovered in the California nebula, and Barnard's Loop. I also don't recall a single barnacle or crash site at a B class star. If anything, I've found they seem far more common around F and G (especially when it came to UAs.) Another point is that the likelyhood of Ammonia worlds around B stars is considerably lower. I've always seen a lot of activity in systems with ammonia worlds within the area. So much so that you're seeing 3+ USSes all at once in orbit.

Well to be more specific they point to Merope 5c, as in they will turn to point at it. The sensors point to the star Merope

I believe B stars have the highest probability of planets with beastly resources to mine. Electra has, iirc, a top-10 contender for Cadmium in the entire EDSM.

Makes me wonder about those Caine-Massey (mining co) crates.
