The Sheet could have some extra categories for the "Area" column, or you could use the "Region/Type" if you like. Dive in and comment, or just do it.

Interesting... When did he say this? I don't remember any "Salome" posts on galnet ... So I'm guessing he's talking about the kahina disappearance post?

Edit sorry... Was talking about this

"drewwagar: BTW...<gives mysterious look> Everyone missed an easter egg in the last Galnet article about Salomé. It's not a clue, but I wanted to see if you were all paying attention. So far, it appears not."

I believe the reference is to Salome's message from Beagle Point a couple of weeks ago.

Ah ya the live stream... I did mention it ... So maybe this isn't it ... But if u "look up" at the last 4 sentances ... The first letters spell "rift" bottom to top....
 
The new CG with former Federation President wanting exploration data seems strange at first, but then again, she has seen "things": "They are out there. I have seen them. We must put aside our petty differences and work together to establish contact. There is so much we could learn from them." What is it that she have seen and does it have connection with Salomé or is it totally "wrong" side she is in ? Makes you wonder, should I sell the data or wait for another one, hmm...

My thoughts exactly. I would imagine that will be other CGs in the future as this a long term project.

Here's the quote from Halsey in Galnet from her first interview following being brought out of the coma:

"It was wonderful. Amazing. I saw the universe, and our galaxy within it, as I'd never seen it before, and I felt the presence of the real caretakers of our galaxy. The paradox of their existence - tiny yet gargantuan, fleeting yet eternal. They spoke to me as I drifted in the void. It was amazing. I must share their message."

This unorthodox statement prompted a flurry of further questions, but Halsey's escorts promptly led her from the room.

Could someone post a screenshot of the CG text?
Is this one of the standard exploration, just number of systems turned CG, or is it something different?

Qohen Leth, as Finwin is betaing new releases of EDDiscovery I was thinking it would be nice if your Rift Map was included for his underlays.

Are folks aware of the new beta's?
It's really nice, for example you can click on a dot on the map, get the system name and center on it.

As a caution be sure to sync to EDSM first.

Doesn't raise any thoughts for me. Perhaps I'm dense? I'd need a better explanation of where you are going with this line of thought in order to adequately comment. Welcome though! All input is welcome, glad to see you're engaging and not just lurking. Keep flying Commander!

Ooops. Thanks for feedback!! never post when reading late night to grandson, drinking wine, and having access to a keyboard!! Now back to your normal programming!

I just headed up there and turned in some data. The CG is counting number of reports, and apparently that means number of systems that you have data for.
 
Except we went over that a fair amount when the Galnet article was published so unless Drew is less observant than we think it doesn't fit with his 'and nobody noticed' hint.
Maybe the Easter egg is confirmation that Salome has been to the Rift & got survey data there before she went on DWE. However I think that is a conclusion we had already come to - she disappeared from June3301 (the Achenar databank break-in) to the January3302 DWE start so what else would she have been doing. The Norma Expanse is presumably related to the Norma Arm (see Erimus' galactic mapping project site) but I've not heard of anything special there.
 
The watch on the rift continues, would be nice if some of the first discovereds out there returned sold data and went back out so others can follow and not double up on the effort

I'm certainly thinking about it, but did a 180 yesterday after I realized that I just didn't feel quite ready to head back. Maybe if tomorrow's CG's are REALLY good. Or if the impending release of 2.1 scares me enough. (It's only a beta release, right? Will that potentially affect those of us not in the beta program?)
 
Apart from Rho cass, close by, and in the rift is HR 237 a K-type supergiant. Tried but couldn't reach it with a 36ly Asp. No Fsd boost on board.

a) Has anyone been to HR 237?

b)Has anyone found a third not random system nearby?


300lyrs out from HR 237, will let ya know what's there, unless.......I don't come back....[alien]
