Nice ! Another one I havent seen - Need to add to map :)
Nice finds! I am going to look around that area and see if anything comes up. As far as clues go, maybe we can tentatively add this to the other 3? Could be related, but maybe not. Just found it interesting, and it is also in the general region of the other 3.


I marked it and included it in the search zone, so it looks like this for me:

the problem i see with that kind of "search zone" is the galaxy map orientation. how did you come to that orientation? i mean you can pick a multitude of interesting POI and then draw shapes between them... but why how and what for? is there a reference point?
 
I just picked what MrShinyTorterra pointed out as systems in which interesting things had been found that could be related to the Raxxla myth. Then I roughly estimated the center between those 3 points as a starting point to just look around within that zone for any listening posts. It is pretty random, but this area when looking at the list where most listening posts had been found or were pointing to, the whole COL 285 area there has had a lot of these abandoned settlements and PoIs in the past, so who knows, might find some more in that general area.

too true. the canonn research articles alluding to any sort of non human/non thargoid signal and any type of gravity anomaly are very interesting. particularly the ones about people disappearing or memory loss. seems a lot of them also refer to the pharmasapiens too. the evil corp that infiltrated the hesperus/alabaster to take it over/steal the artifacts. they dont always specificaly mention them but they have the same story line. the research group was infiltrated or people "went mad" and started killing eachother. the base and its research are lost.


any idea what 'exodus' is?

there are atleast 3 articles i have found of similar stories. ventures out into the formadine rift to deploy secret beacons. then the crew is usualy killed.
 
I am pretty new to this, so I am reading up a lot on what has already been found out and what events the community triggered. I think the one you referred to all have to do with this Zurara ship that was eventually found in the Formidine rift. And it seems to be tied to that narrative arc about Project Dynasty.


Whether this is also related to Raxxla somehow remains to be seen. The Exodus, and that's just a guess, is just a signature fitting to the whole theme that past myth had, which is basically the exodus of humanity to the rift, in case the thargoids force everyone to flee the bubble.

Cheers for the connection. i was guessing from the name without even reading into it that exodus probably meant running to the rift to escape the thargoids. probably orchestrated by The Club. seems most of that is already solved then and probably of little interest.

The whole Formidine Rift mystery was tied into Drew Wagars books Reclamation and Premonition and a series of posts and interactive stuff that happened in game. Was alot of fun but the general consensus is it was tied to that storyline and (probably) not raxxla related... although it is tied in with the "Club" who do have an interest in raxxla... so who knows.

But id suggest reading his books before delving too much - if you like a good story :)
 
I personaly think Communications Array Delta 69 doesn't have any connection to The formidine Rift. It is so unique and is not mentioned in the same way in any other log. This is the only time an event like this is described.
I would agree... that event described there is pretty wild. And to be honest, I can't quite make sense of it. But it is indeed unlike all the other PoIs found so far. So far the only thing I got about that anomaly is that it might be a reference to a book from 1969: Spencer, John Wallace (1969). Limbo Of The Lost. That book is about the Bermuda Triangle, which is a Delta. And considering that there has been a lot of weird stuff in the COL 285 region near that PoI, we probably have something equivalent to the Bermuda Triangle, just in space.

No if that doesn’t look a tiny bit obvious!

What’s in the centre?
 
I dont have faith that Raxxla isn't bugged out, broken and unobtainable due to regularly occurring game problems. 😒
I'm becoming convinced Raxxla is just the name of a cocktail served only to certain people by Jaques, and because they don't have the Coriolis force drinks pouring issue sorted out in Odyssey yet it is currently unaccessible.

The Research Facility 5592 stuff sound like the sort of stuff that got added in the run up to the return of the goids.

Most of it is Tharg or Guardian related with a sideline in 'evil company experimenting on its workers' but they're all written seemingly to allow false associations with Raxxla and tinfoil...which is fine until people start stating them as factual clues and the bandwagon gets going without the evidence to back it up.
 
the problem with using anything that was written before or even in early elite dangerous times is that fdev has retconned almost all of elite's canon. only the content made for the game is real, and even that is suspect if it contradicts what fdev is currently saying.

the retconning of their own lore even post ED is so bad that we can't really trust anything. they've even hinted that what we know of the guardians and thargoids from ram tah can't be trusted.

it's all rather depressing when you think about it and are involved in these kind of lore mysteries and role playing.
Old games and books have legend status, not canon status. It's been that way since releeace There was minimal connection between Elite 1 and FE2, so any continuity was impossible. Almost all the events from FFE has be reconfirmed in ED, in Tourist Beacons.
All the ED books are still canon. The only exception are the descriptions of the Alliance having meetings with Thargoids in the 3250s. That probably never happened and is the only thing that has been retconned.

Everything written for Oolite is fan fiction and has never been lore.

The Dark Wheel is the only official book that has any form of description of Raxxla. That book is not canon, but can be considered a legend within the ED universe. As the codex mentions that even fiction can contain valid hints of Raxxla's locale, we can not scratch TDW from our reading list.

they had content retconned regarding the rift in the sense that they started deus ex machining anything they no longer wanted to be true with the hexedit drug and unreliable narrators.

they even did that kind of thing to their own in game stories involving abandoned plots around voices and songs in hyperspace related to misjumps.

plenty has been retconned since ED launch this way.

yea, but at that point you can believe and make up anything and it is just as likely to be true.
 
I think I might found a possible location for Raxxla theoreticly. It's in sol on planet 9 (Persephone). The planet itself was only detected later. It sais in the codex:
"To the jewel that burns on the brow of the mother of galaxies! To the whisperer in witch-
space, the siren of the deepest void! The parent's grief, the lover's woe, and the yearning of
our vagabond hearts. To Raxxla!"

Ignore the most part of that except The parent's grief, the lover's woe.
In mythology she gets kidnapped by Hades and her mother is super sad, parents grief. She has her history of bringing sorrow to her lovers, the lover's woe. So checks out. Might be at the poles or something.
I don't have a Sol permit. Also would explain the dude looking away when showing sol on a stream. Don't know what stream tho so if someone has a link to that let me know.

Also it is the only planet within Sol that doesnt really exit in real life (Only hmmms and mehhhs and maybes about a huge planet we cant detect yet)
