Thanks for taking over the OP! It was really needed with the increasing pace of the storyline (and there were some things I wanted to check but don't have the time to trawl the entire thread for).

I keep thinking about what the Rift mystery might be but the new content is confusing me. Something that I thought it might have been, that I investigated myself a couple of months back but found no signs of, was markings on the surface of Earth-like Worlds showing orbital bombardment. Maybe the 'right person' is someone who flies by planets looking for interesting surface features? There is also mention of worlds being sterilised clean by the Thargoids and of gravestones stretching over the horizon, reflecting light, which makes me think that I ought to check lifeless candidates for terraforming for these things, although that would multiply the number of planets to search considerably and I'm now completely burned out flying over planets after trying to find geysers, fumaroles or fungal growths on worlds in M67. The second transmission from the Cobra Mk3 in the Tionisla graveyard makes me think of confining my search to systems with the EAFOTS CC-P prefix (for Cassiopeia, Camelopardalis and Perseus), which would be the only way that I could narrow it down enough for a lone commander to go looking. Real life and current in-game commitments are going to stop me investigating this myself for at least a fortnight but I see from EDSM that there are some EAFOTS CC-P systems but no information on what is in them. Only one person has visited the ones I checked: were there any lifeless terraformables in any of them @DrewCarnegie ?
