Key findings:
Reliable public statements known directly or corroborated.
As attested to in this forum when questioned the CEO David Braben (DB) has confirmed that Raxxla ‘exists’. Michael Brookes (MB) additionally indicated that Raxxla was somewhere in the galaxy and it at least was considered as a story line for being played out in game.

The Community Manager Arthur Tolmie (AT) confirmed in a 2021 interview concerning Raxxla: “It’s there. Clearly it’s there. I’ve said this in another stream, I’ll say it today, it’s been going a longtime. The payoff would have to be great, and that’s all I will say on it”.
Source:
In the same interview AT confirmed that FD has a modus operandi (MO) of inserting key content over time, even into systems where there is existing activity.
Upon launch a minor faction identifying itself as the Dark Wheel emerged in the Shinrarta Dezhra system (SD) which used to issue the historical Dark Wheel (DW) missions.
These missions indicated a link between the DW and Raxxla through its use of terminology from original Elite lore. Later in 2021 FD confirmed these missions were removed and are no longer in game for reasons unconfirmed.

In Aug 2022 FD support confirmed ‘Trinkets of Hidden Fortune’ which were linked to the DW missions, although still in game were effectively now just a curiosity and that the ‘story’ they related to was not currently active.

FD in 2021 confirms in relation to Polaris, that not all active permit locked regions have active permits, nor are all currently accessible to players, one such example being Polaris.
FD in 2021 when questioned directly (see below) regarding the DW faction supposed ‘invite’ that is alluded to in the Codex and the pdf manual, specifically FD’s response was: “There are some factions and invites which may not be active yet, but may become active in future. Again, we cannot confirm the nature of these invitations”.
The Codex currently indicates by way of inclusion, the DW faction in SD maybe bogus/front and that the ‘real’ DW hands out an unidentified invitation and in regards to this, players cannot contact the real DW directly, but it is the real DW who contacts the player and said contact is incognito, the DW identity is never provided, supposedly only upon discovery of the real DW station by way of the information provided within it is this confirmed.
The Codex currently indicates that the DW originally utilised a disused Orbis station on low energy that orbited the eighth moon of an unnamed gas giant.
The Codex currently indicates by way of inclusion, the DW has been in existence since the earliest period of interstellar travel which began in the 22nd century.
ED lore suggests hyperspace tech existed since the 22nd century. Modern hyperspace drive did not come into existence until 3290.
The Codex confirms the real DW station is of the oldest Orbis design developed by the Federation who originated on Mars in the 22nd century.
All Orbis Starport’s with the exception of those under construction are permanently stationary. There does exist at least 1 Orbis Starport with engines which has the ability of moving between stars named Jaques Station currently located in the Colonia System, prior to this it was located in the Facece system, whose gas giant / y-class brown dwarf does have 8 moons.
Humanity established its first colony outside of Sol on the planet Taylor Colony in Tau Ceti in 2159.
Between 2190 and 2230 humanity’s first colonies were; Sol ; Tau Ceti; Delta Pavonis; Altair and Beta Hydri.
By 2288 Eotienses was colonised.
By the year 2292 the furthest known settled system was Achenar, made by Marlin Duval who died suspiciously in 2296, this initial journey was described as treacherous across what was then unexplored space.
Post in thread 'The Quest To Find Raxxla'
https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/the-quest-to-find-raxxla.168253/post-9856307
The Codex confirms the date and location of where the mystery of Raxxla was first recorded as Tau Ceti in the year 2296 attributed to a ship board mechanic ‘Art Tornqvist’ and his drunk partner ‘Cora’.
The next recorded settlement after this period is Arcturus in 2304.
All of the above systems, utilising Sol as the centre and Achenar as the furthest part, describe a sphere of influence
At launch FD issue a PDF manual, within which is a message from ‘a friend’ that alludes to a test.
https://hosting.zaonce.net/elite/website/assets/ELITE-DANGEROUS-GAME-MANUAL.pdf
There exists in game the practice of ‘honk and go’ where players ignore systems content, utilising them solely as navigational waypoints or fuel stops.
There exist systems in the ‘human bubble’ which have only ever been partially mapped as well as thousands of colonised / non colonised and low profit brown dwarf systems which haven’t been scanned by everyone.
Data can be lost upon ship destruction and errors caused by FD. Every players ‘Visited Stars List’ is stored locally but it only records data since version 2.2. and this data may still be lost following a game wipe.
Key Findings with low reliability
Not corroborated or unknown.
Cmdra Ascorbious stated that a certain FD employee confirmed at a Lavcom Q&A circa 2015/2016 that the system with Raxxla in was visited by a player, but it was not discovered.
https://m.twitch.tv/clip/SnappyScaryMousePupper
Drew Wagnar iterated that he heard FD comment that they know why it hasn’t been found, he also has gone on record that DB told him directly that Raxxla was in game and they know where it is.
The Codex provides information which reads as counter intelligence with inclusion of the statement that “According to self-professed Dark Wheel expert Lyta Crane ... ... ... rival experts have accused Crane of forging her evidence in order to maintain the revenue from her billions of followers.”
The date referenced in the codex relating to Tau Ceti creates a sphere of influence, within this resides a series of systems relevant to the world tree Yggdrasil as well as a system called Pandemonium, with relates to the writings of John Milton; a favourite author of MB. It can be described as being upon the ‘outer rim’ of said sphere of influence.
Post in thread 'The Quest To Find Raxxla'
https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/the-quest-to-find-raxxla.168253/post-9856307
The reference used in the early DW missions was that relating to the Song of the Spheres, this term was used by John Milton to describe the Prima Mobile, the model universe which contained all of creation and formed a spherical shell around Earth (Sol).
Below the base of said sphere was Pandemonium, the capitol of Hell.
Within the DW missions pilots were tasked to acquire ‘Trinkets of hidden fortune’, of which description identifies the goddess Fortuna (Greek counterpart for Tyche) both systems exist in game.
Fortuna is linked to the phrase ‘eyes to see’ in relation to: The Metamorphoses of Apuleius (later source inspiration for A Midsummers night dream); generally Fortuna is described historically as blind or blindfolded; her wheel ‘Rota Fortunae’ is tied to the ‘silent song’ itself relating to the zodiac, and her wheel can have six spokes.
In relation to the identified sphere of influence said systems do appear within this sphere and are relatively close together.
Dark Systems: These were supposed to be hidden areas where mystery resided, these would be abundant but only detectable once a section of interstellar space had been mapped.
Drew Wagnar Premonition it states: “ER 8 system played host to a dull brown dwarf; they used to call them dark systems”.
Assessment:
There is a realistic possibility that Raxxla is in game and can be located based upon the public statements of the company CEO, the Senior Producer and Community Manager as well as 1 third party witness.
There is a realistic possibility that the location of Raxxla is to be within a relatively close proximity to Sol, based upon the current game lore and Codex which provides specific temporal interstellar points of interest.
The level of possibility is no higher as a result of logical assessment of the key findings provided, and an absence of evidence to the contrary, the use of active permits or inactive or active narrative can therefore not be corroborated.
Therefore Raxxla must be currently discoverable using conventional mechanisms applicable to any player regardless of ability, allegiance or progress, if not true then the key findings are 100% false, as a rule no higher probability can be ascribed.
Assumptions:
The SD DW and or real DW station and invite attested to in the Codex and manual are not currently active, as a game mechanism for locating Raxxla etc; but they all relate to a narrative element now removed or yet to be turned on.
This is based upon the clarification that the DW is bogus and cannot be contacted without an invite; additionally FD confirm the use of narrative elaboration which fits their statements concerning non-activated invites, the confirmation the DW missions are removed, the DW ‘story’ may well be dormant, and FD modus operandi for inserting key content over time.
The real DW station, like Raxxla is relatively close to Sol, if not in Sol or another early system. The DW stations low energy signature would render it invisible to sensors, potentially only being discoverable through ‘eye contact’, fixed coordinates provided via a mission, or via close proximity detection.
The existence of Orbis stations with the capacity for interstellar travel allows the possibility the DW station has re-located at least once, or is not in relatively close proximity to Sol and may no longer be orbiting the 8th moon of a gas giant and could be anywhere.
The sphere of influence identified in the key findings, is a construct of MB and is a physical representation of the Primum Mobile of John Milton with Pandemonium at its base and it is this sphere of influence which houses the ‘outer rim’ described in the older DW missions.
The presence of Donars Oak recently injected into the game is a link to the tree of Yggdrasil, depicted in game via a series of systems within the sphere of influence noted above identifying that some portion of the Raxxla story is active, or it is a primer for future narrative content.
Post in thread 'The Quest To Find Raxxla'
https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/the-quest-to-find-raxxla.168253/post-9856307
Raxxla is within a dark system, effectively now know as brown dwarf systems, these are prevalent yet relatively uninteresting locations.
Intelligence gaps:
It is unknown if the historical statements made by FD are currently accurate or were made out of context, they remain reliable as public statements, but are generally untested, highlighting the need for confirmation as to if Raxxla is currently ‘accessible’.
Such statements may have been made against an alternative game narrative or mechanism which may have since been replaced, removed or paused.
It is an unknown what relevance Fortuna has in relation to the current Raxxla codex or what ‘eyes to see’ means in correlation to ‘Astrophel and the spiralling stars’.
It is unknown if the Codex’s uses of obscure references are intentionally coded clues which may provide additional insight; or are narrative markers, at present such information is too extensive to be reliable and is open to speculation, therefore it does not form part of this report at present (tin-foil).
It is unknown if FD employs an automated naming database to assist writers / populate content, if this is the case such naming of characters and locations within the Codex and game generally could be totally arbitrary and meaningless.
It remains an unknown if Raxxla was historically visited but not scanned. This fits with common player behaviour, which would be known to FD and although logically viable is ultimately irrelevant, except to support a number of assumptions such as; that Raxxla is an astronomical object that can be scanned by normal methods and doesn’t require any permit nor invite; that players ignored certain types of systems over others and Raxxla resides in one of these dull systems; or that the method, application or limitations of navigation at that time provides some additional insight.
At present it does not provide sufficient information to assess a general location without more scrutiny.
Recommendations:
Join the ‘Great Potato Hunt’ but conduct a search pattern of all systems discovered prior to 2296 namely Sol ; Tau Ceti; Delta Pavonis; Altair; Beta Hydri; Eotienses and Achenar.
Searching should include the use of all scanning processes even if said body is already discovered; it also should include close by sling shot navigation of each body to potentially identify non-scannable but visually apparent objects.
Conduct a search of the entire bubble of influence identified by the key information temporal data, with a focus upon anarchy systems as well a brown dwarf systems.
Conduct a search of the exterior of the bubble of influence (outer rim) identified by the key information temporal data.
Map the sphere of influence alongside the Yggdrasil systems to assess any relationships, combined with any other information such as Fortuna.
Continue to review of the Codex text to provide additional information to support assumptions or widen this report.

@Rochester : I concur with your analysis with a couple of provisos:
The codex phrasing about the TDW station being in orbit around 8th moon of a Gas Giant is, IMHO, partially or wholly false. The phrasing says “According to self-professed Dark Wheel expert Lyta Crane ... ... ... rival experts have accused Crane of forging her evidence in order to maintain the revenue from her billions of followers.” I think this is intentionally throwing doubt over the claim.
If it is wholly incorrect then there is nothing to deduce, but if it is partially correct, for instance it is orbiting a moon of a GG that is the 8th planet fits Neptune in Sol. Neptune fits the Oberon and Neptune names of Alex Ryders sons, which seems a likely device for FD to use. TDW has been in existence since the start of space exploration, and it is a very old station, hence I think it may end up being in orbit in Sol at Neptune when it is placed into the game. I agree it is a narrative device, and probably intended to be a fallback storyline leading to Raxxla in case we do not find it first. FD want Raxxla to be found, but want to make the Quest difficult. This was effectively stated by MB (see my quotes thread) when he said “it’s something in the game world and very hard to find...it’s not a random thing....anyone can find it and more than once” (this quote was taken from images which someone provided on the IRH Discord of early (2014) forum chat. I’ve searched formthe original conversation but couldn't find it, presumably lost in the great forum revamp that FD did a few years ago. Maybe too much was being recorded!).
So Raxxla is in-game and unlikely to be permit-locked, but TDW is not yet in-game. I think this is the reason for saying it’s dark-it insulates them from the inevitable salt when (if!!) it is eventually inserted in-game at an obvious location which has been visited many times by many people.
However couple the above with the rumour (I tend to believe it) that the system Raxxla is in has been visited but it was not detected. To me it becomes clear that either Raxxla is disguised as something very ordinary (“we dont know what it is”) and has been ignored to date (I’ve been working on this hypothesis recently), or it is obvious but very hard to locate. I am coming round to the latter hypothesis once more. Ive postulated before that it could be 2060 Chiron from interpretation of the Raxxla logo. It could be anywhere in its orbit in Sol, which is difficult to follow, you could have to be very close to detect it, anyone could find it and it could be found more than once.
I need to put some more work into disproving my current theory, but I’ll post it then, after which I may go back to looking in Sol...
Or I may be forced to take up SC!! There’s only so much fernweh a Jorkshireman can take!

In all honesty the report is a partly loaded assessment aimed to get people thinking.
I have a number of biased assumptions about this whole search, based upon personal experience in dealing with how people make statements and behavioural analysis of other evidence etc which if I took as valid (which I cannot without any supporting evidence nor comparison) I would actually mark all evidence much lower, and go so far to say both Raxxla and the Dark Wheel are not currently active.
The lowest common denominator would assume the worst, yet FD provide evidence to the contrary.
However with the absence of such evidence such bias cannot be correctly trusted so instead I have to treat FD statements and the codex for that matter as positive confirmation, and logic dictates that at least the DW is a narrative device and Raxxla is in game and currently accessible.
Exactly what it is can’t really be confirmed. I do suspect the statement related to Lavecon has some veracity, and if ever confirmed would identify Raxxla as an astronomical object which can be scanned…! Of course there could be more to this but anything more is pure speculation off unknown/ untrusted information.
Any such report is of course for consideration only, it is up to the reader to make their own conclusions, or propose further insight to expand the key findings.

Well, as a well-known stellar constructor said “we don’t know what it is”, however we can always hazard a guess or twenty....
If Raxxla is 2060 Chiron (my hypothesis based on its orbital period of 50 years which matched what Allan Stroud mooted for the periodic reappearance of Raxxla, though that could also match up with the in-game start of the various game versions), or another asteroid (or even Halley’s Comet which we know is in Sol but hasn't been intercepted yet) then that could explain the three arcs in the Raxxla logo-it would be an asteroid base! presumably Guardian since we know Raxxla relates to the alien lore book. Though I remember Thargoids were supposed to have ships the size of moons so I don’t discount that as a possibility.
My co-pawlot had fits at 03:50 and 07:30, so I think I’ll be snoozing this afternoon instead of flying to test out my current theory. So I’ll present my previous one, it is based on analysis of the Raxxla codex entry which I’ll post below with my annotated thoughts:

"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!"
- Alleged toast of the Dark Wheel (1)
The legend of Raxxla has been circulating, in whispers, for centuries (2). The quest for this mysterious place, the location of which is a deadly secret, was said to be the principal aim of the Dark Wheel, a putative fraternity of legend-chasers from the early days of interstellar travel. (3)
The earliest recorded mention of Raxxla dates from 2296 (4), from the journal of Art Tornqvist, a shipboard mechanic based in the Tau Ceti system. He writes: 'Cora comes home soused and raving with wild stories, a new one every night. She claims she's found a map to some pirate stash, and all I have to do is loan her my ship so we can go dig it up. Maybe we should go find Raxxla while we're at it!' Although Tornqvist's account is the first known attestation of Raxxla, it is clear from the text that the myth was already in circulation. (5)
It is extremely difficult to find consistency among the various fragmentary rumours of Raxxla. Much like the ancient myths of Atlantis, El Dorado and the kingdom of Prester John, interpretations of the story range from the sceptical to the outlandish: Raxxla has been suggested to be anything from an unremarkable moon to a state of cosmic enlightenment. The earliest documented stories tend to agree on several points, however: that Raxxla is a definite place and that it holds a mystical secret. (6)
Several versions of the Raxxla story mention an alien artefact, the Omphalos Rift, described as a gateway or tunnel (7) through which parallel universes can be accessed. These details, however, were later shown to bear a striking resemblance to the children's story Princess Astrophel and the Spiralling Stars, (8) and soon lost credibility. Undaunted, some Raxxla seekers insisted that the story's author had cunningly concealed facts about the mysterious locale in his book as hints for those with eyes to see. (9)
Students of Raxxla lore have noted that the legend exerts a strangely potent fascination on the minds of seekers. Commentators have compared this sensation to 'fernweh'. the unaccountable longing for a place one has never seen. More than one interstellar treasure-seeker has become obsessed with Raxxla to the exclusion of all other dreams, and spent his or her entire life in a futile search for it. (10)
Raxxla also plays a role in several conspiracy theories, most of which attest that it has already been discovered by some kind of sinister cabal (or sole tyrant), which has leveraged its power to establish covert dominance over humanity. (11)
Whatever the truth of the matter, one thing remains irrefutable: the legend of Raxxla continues to inspire explorers and conspiracy theorists to this day.
Thoughts/comments:
1 - as Han_Zen pointed out, these are directions to Raxxla. Whisperer is NS (Sirens are also NS, New Scientist 20 October 2007 p62 The word: Space-time sirens). Jewel is Sol (Galnet 14Jun3301 "Sol is the birthplace of our race, the shining jewel of our galaxy") or Alphekka (Alpha Corona Borealis). “The constellation of Corona Borealis translates to “the northern crown” (when Ariadne wore this crown at her marriage to god Dionysus, he placed it in the heavens to commemorate their wedding) it hosts many deep-sky objects, such as the Abell 2065 galaxy cluster, the Corona Borealis Supercluster, the NGC 6085, and 6086 spiral and elliptical galaxies, or the Abell 2142, 2061, 2067 and 2162 galaxy clusters, among others”. Third line of toast implies one-way or very long journey, parents & lovers left-behind are broken-hearted. So, does the NS supercharge take you to the Raxxla system??
Sol- nearest NS are: 18 Camelopardalis (139 ly), Jackson's Lighthouse (174.01 ly) & Beta Sculptoris (174.05 ly)
Alphekka- nearest NS are: Lalande 25224 (195.65ly) 18 Camelopardalis, HIP 69328, Rukbat, c2 Centauri
2 -sounds like another clue, "circulating"->"spiralling" (sort of!) AND another use of “whispers”. Reinforcing NS? OR perhaps a humorous cryptic hint that Raxxla/Omphalos is disguised as a Space Station??
Could alternatively be a hint that station name is related to “whisper” or its synonyms, perhaps mutter or sigh- several “Pearlmutter” stations, Farsight Expedition Base, Long Sight Base.
3 - this mention of TDW may be a hint that there is a storyline path to Raxxla via them (John Harper implied in a forum post that TDW may have found Raxxla https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threa...eel-may-contain-spoilers.402645/#post-6366667), but we haven’t found them yet! UNLESS if some TDW missions from Jamesons Memorial take you to a station which is Raxxla disguised?
4 - Rumour recorded in Tau Ceti (likely a distraction). Date suggests likely range; Achenar (139.45 ly from Sol) colonised only 4 years earlier. Could have been found by the Empire, or during the journey there.
5 - Rumour could have spread rapidly in spacer bars; with no confirming evidence (& especially if Holdstock’s TDW novella “powerful twisted men” are hiding it) it might have become a myth within only a couple of years. Of course powerful twisted men could be FD!
6 - this paragraph clearly says Raxxla is a place which can be found in-game! Can’t make it much plainer!!
7 - tunnel sounds like the high-energy relativistic jets of a NS, or perhaps if this “omphalos rift” is activated it produces an energy cone that super-super-energises the fsd? Omphalos implies navel/cone-shaped with central hole as per ancient Greece where it marked the centre of the world, however there is also an “omphalos” in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. Could “tunnel”/“gateway” also suggest docking entrance to a station?
8 - “Princess Astrophel and the Spiralling Stars”: Spiralling Stars could mean: Wolf-Rayet, binary BH, binary NS or Sag A*, or just possibly a specific single NS since NS jets exhibit spiral motion (though the clue says plural stars); Could alternatively imply system/station name embedded as an anagram/cryptogram?
Princess Palace Orbis Starport in LTT 135 (only instance of "Princess" word in galmap), DB’s talk about “ED has a story that "embraces all the players"m.youtube.com/watch?v=gDh9G1gDgMUit “does have a story, but it’s not a single-player threaded “rescue the princess” style story, it’s a story of your progression through the game”. Might he have inserted Raxxla as the solution to such a “find the princess” storyline? Is the starport the “mysterious locale”? A station rotates so the surrounding sky star background might be said to spiral as the station orbits? Paragraph phrasing implies Princess "loves" (though “phel”=“hates” in Hindi) NS, & LTT 135 seems to be surrounded by a shell of 13 NS within 300 ly. Have visited & approached to dropout zone (nothing found) all of:
Beta Sculptoris B 61.19 ly

9 - “for those with eyes to see” - NS are pretty visible, and this interpretation of the phrase fits with the NS hypothesis, but perhaps it conveys a different clue?
10 - I see no point in this paragraph. It only highlights the word “Fernweh”, which literally translates as “far sore”, which sounds like “farsaw” reminiscent of “farseer”.
11 - LTT 135 is the home of JetForce Dynamics ('Getting you there with the power of air' which is a peculiar phrase, especially for a space game, but they don’t appear in-game according to EDSM/factions) and "Hyperion Intelligence Agency" (described as a "ruthless and effective faction, specialising in subterfuge and system control", and they only appear to control Odyssey surface bases+one installation). Got a fine from them (accidentally shot the installation) but when got to an Interstellar Factor to pay it off it only showed as an “Empire” fine, not the faction name, which seems unusual? Lore-wise this system is just off the route from Sol to, & quite close, to Achenar, so fits in with the Raxxla rumour timescale and possibly Empire as Holdstock’s ‘cabal of evil men that controls it’. Both factions seem to be player groups, but could have been created for the purpose by FD. LTT 135 is exploited by Denton Patreus, who seems to be a good fit for the “sole tyrant”!
LTT135: Princess Palace Orbis starport docking light array doesn’t match appearance of the "Raxxla logo" image. Agnew’s Folly & Princess Palace Orbis starports have support brackets at the end of the struts for the docking light structure which sort of correspond to the black areas of the Raxxla logo, but the rest of the light structure does not seem to correspond. Ship destroyed probing Princess Palace, shooting at blue lights. Couldn't see any Omphalos triggers!
Kagawa Prospect is a military outpost with lots of blue lights (might be Guardian?) and IMHO a strange design to the underside of the docking surface-could the outpost be hiding a Guardian artefact? But then don’t see how the logo fits! So if someone else wants to test this out? I got fed up of being destroyed!!
LTT 135 1 has “External Actuarial Ministry” installation (Hyperion Intel Agency), centred around a large structure; they are attacked & call for assistance- perhaps a membership test? I got “small amount of status” defending them for 2.5MCr in bounties
Might be an “FD’ism”, but the system occupying faction is “51th Massilia Corporation”; but in English should be 51st!
- Alleged toast of the Dark Wheel (1)
The legend of Raxxla has been circulating, in whispers, for centuries (2). The quest for this mysterious place, the location of which is a deadly secret, was said to be the principal aim of the Dark Wheel, a putative fraternity of legend-chasers from the early days of interstellar travel. (3)
The earliest recorded mention of Raxxla dates from 2296 (4), from the journal of Art Tornqvist, a shipboard mechanic based in the Tau Ceti system. He writes: 'Cora comes home soused and raving with wild stories, a new one every night. She claims she's found a map to some pirate stash, and all I have to do is loan her my ship so we can go dig it up. Maybe we should go find Raxxla while we're at it!' Although Tornqvist's account is the first known attestation of Raxxla, it is clear from the text that the myth was already in circulation. (5)
It is extremely difficult to find consistency among the various fragmentary rumours of Raxxla. Much like the ancient myths of Atlantis, El Dorado and the kingdom of Prester John, interpretations of the story range from the sceptical to the outlandish: Raxxla has been suggested to be anything from an unremarkable moon to a state of cosmic enlightenment. The earliest documented stories tend to agree on several points, however: that Raxxla is a definite place and that it holds a mystical secret. (6)
Several versions of the Raxxla story mention an alien artefact, the Omphalos Rift, described as a gateway or tunnel (7) through which parallel universes can be accessed. These details, however, were later shown to bear a striking resemblance to the children's story Princess Astrophel and the Spiralling Stars, (8) and soon lost credibility. Undaunted, some Raxxla seekers insisted that the story's author had cunningly concealed facts about the mysterious locale in his book as hints for those with eyes to see. (9)
Students of Raxxla lore have noted that the legend exerts a strangely potent fascination on the minds of seekers. Commentators have compared this sensation to 'fernweh'. the unaccountable longing for a place one has never seen. More than one interstellar treasure-seeker has become obsessed with Raxxla to the exclusion of all other dreams, and spent his or her entire life in a futile search for it. (10)
Raxxla also plays a role in several conspiracy theories, most of which attest that it has already been discovered by some kind of sinister cabal (or sole tyrant), which has leveraged its power to establish covert dominance over humanity. (11)
Whatever the truth of the matter, one thing remains irrefutable: the legend of Raxxla continues to inspire explorers and conspiracy theorists to this day.
Thoughts/comments:
1 - as Han_Zen pointed out, these are directions to Raxxla. Whisperer is NS (Sirens are also NS, New Scientist 20 October 2007 p62 The word: Space-time sirens). Jewel is Sol (Galnet 14Jun3301 "Sol is the birthplace of our race, the shining jewel of our galaxy") or Alphekka (Alpha Corona Borealis). “The constellation of Corona Borealis translates to “the northern crown” (when Ariadne wore this crown at her marriage to god Dionysus, he placed it in the heavens to commemorate their wedding) it hosts many deep-sky objects, such as the Abell 2065 galaxy cluster, the Corona Borealis Supercluster, the NGC 6085, and 6086 spiral and elliptical galaxies, or the Abell 2142, 2061, 2067 and 2162 galaxy clusters, among others”. Third line of toast implies one-way or very long journey, parents & lovers left-behind are broken-hearted. So, does the NS supercharge take you to the Raxxla system??
Sol- nearest NS are: 18 Camelopardalis (139 ly), Jackson's Lighthouse (174.01 ly) & Beta Sculptoris (174.05 ly)
Alphekka- nearest NS are: Lalande 25224 (195.65ly) 18 Camelopardalis, HIP 69328, Rukbat, c2 Centauri
2 -sounds like another clue, "circulating"->"spiralling" (sort of!) AND another use of “whispers”. Reinforcing NS? OR perhaps a humorous cryptic hint that Raxxla/Omphalos is disguised as a Space Station??
Could alternatively be a hint that station name is related to “whisper” or its synonyms, perhaps mutter or sigh- several “Pearlmutter” stations, Farsight Expedition Base, Long Sight Base.
3 - this mention of TDW may be a hint that there is a storyline path to Raxxla via them (John Harper implied in a forum post that TDW may have found Raxxla https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threa...eel-may-contain-spoilers.402645/#post-6366667), but we haven’t found them yet! UNLESS if some TDW missions from Jamesons Memorial take you to a station which is Raxxla disguised?
4 - Rumour recorded in Tau Ceti (likely a distraction). Date suggests likely range; Achenar (139.45 ly from Sol) colonised only 4 years earlier. Could have been found by the Empire, or during the journey there.
5 - Rumour could have spread rapidly in spacer bars; with no confirming evidence (& especially if Holdstock’s TDW novella “powerful twisted men” are hiding it) it might have become a myth within only a couple of years. Of course powerful twisted men could be FD!
6 - this paragraph clearly says Raxxla is a place which can be found in-game! Can’t make it much plainer!!
7 - tunnel sounds like the high-energy relativistic jets of a NS, or perhaps if this “omphalos rift” is activated it produces an energy cone that super-super-energises the fsd? Omphalos implies navel/cone-shaped with central hole as per ancient Greece where it marked the centre of the world, however there is also an “omphalos” in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. Could “tunnel”/“gateway” also suggest docking entrance to a station?
8 - “Princess Astrophel and the Spiralling Stars”: Spiralling Stars could mean: Wolf-Rayet, binary BH, binary NS or Sag A*, or just possibly a specific single NS since NS jets exhibit spiral motion (though the clue says plural stars); Could alternatively imply system/station name embedded as an anagram/cryptogram?
Princess Palace Orbis Starport in LTT 135 (only instance of "Princess" word in galmap), DB’s talk about “ED has a story that "embraces all the players"m.youtube.com/watch?v=gDh9G1gDgMUit “does have a story, but it’s not a single-player threaded “rescue the princess” style story, it’s a story of your progression through the game”. Might he have inserted Raxxla as the solution to such a “find the princess” storyline? Is the starport the “mysterious locale”? A station rotates so the surrounding sky star background might be said to spiral as the station orbits? Paragraph phrasing implies Princess "loves" (though “phel”=“hates” in Hindi) NS, & LTT 135 seems to be surrounded by a shell of 13 NS within 300 ly. Have visited & approached to dropout zone (nothing found) all of:
Beta Sculptoris B 61.19 ly
Rukbat B 144.58
Jackson's Lighthouse 187.86
HIP 57814 B 217.48
18 Camelopardalis C 224.04
HIP 3001 B 249.77
c2 Centauri B 252.25
i Eridani B 270.19
53 Sagittarii C 280.88

Hey have found a Secret Message in the Raxxla Codex Entry.
We may [wanna] have a closer [look] here i guess.

When you enter that in the galmap these coordinates take you to Maia. When you change the 6 at the end it moves the system to one often located in the middle of a nebula. Maybe its a lead? Has anyone seen this before?

Interesting find, Where in the codex was it found though
We should get a person in each system to sit until server tick and see if anything appears, My guess is RAXXLA is some sort of ship that passes between these places if this is a confirmed thing, are any of these systems witch head by the way or cone? A theory could be it is also a Thargoid mothership that brings them from galaxy to galaxy and sistuates itself in areas they are using so these placemarkers (thin foil hat spinning)

Hmmmmm. Strange indeed.
That was a cool watch.
Have you been to any of the other sites from that string?

"I’m afraid to say that it is; any string of text before Bj5 will give the same result. Odd, though"

Awesome discovery!
In Odyssey, you have to write Z3non_RAXXLA_Bj5 WE-A H17-to at least show a fragment of result.
Starting from Z3non_RAXXLA_Bj5 WE-A H17-1 it seems that the last one is not Z3non_RAXXLA_Bj5 WE-A H17-11 but Z3non_RAXXLA_Bj5 WE-A H17-42

Some "Z3non_RAXXLA_Bj5 WE-A H17-??" are following a same GalMap system but some are coming more often such as HIP 9221.
I Don't have data but in eddb.io 2 bodies are missing for HIP 9221:
Planet 9 and 10. BUG?
I was bored, now i have 48 systems to explore
ok here ppl, its already been said above twice atleast, but im going to say it in a more detailed way so we can all stop wasting our time....
this text search string thing, has nothing to do with Raxxla and is just click bait...
the original poster of the string, said himself on Reddit;
"It is an issue how FDEVs not check User Input. It is Just an overflow. I told them 18 Month ago."
and if that doesnt explain it for you, heres another users explaination;
"It ain't some special kind of code
Z3non_RAXXLA_Bj5 actually don't mean anything
You can put I_HATE_MAYONNAISE there and it will still work the same
WE-A
W letter is probably for the cords of center in regions. typing different number after H17- will take you to other centers of regions
You can also change W to other letters and it will deliver to other coords
But yeah, nothing special"
so, to reitterate one last time, any text upto and including "Bj5" doesnt matter and can be random and it will still point you to the same area. the fact you can use text that includes 'RAXXLA' is no different then the fact that you could use swear/curse words in that spot and it still works, its just a bug in the way search text is parsed in the galmap.
everyone on the same page now? lol
good luck CMDRs ! dont waste your time on verified misinformation.
EDIT: for those still wanting to know how the text string was found in the Codex by the original poster... IT WASNT, lol.... they were bored
and made that part up as well.

I'm thinking that the end of the string is not correct either.
Let's take this one just for s and giggles
Z3non_RAXXLA_Bj5 WE-A H17-35 This is one of the ones with coordinates (I'm currently out at one of the coords and gonna do a 50ly scan around them to see if there's anything interesting).
The last part of that string WE-A H17-3. So if we go by how systems are named according to this old thread the system we are looking for simply won't exist, since an H-mass according to that post are Nebula and according to this reddit post are SMB, Protostar or mega huge giant galactic star. There's none of those around one of the locations with the coords.
E: Stoned me just read over some more stuff on the reddit post and realized that what I said above is basically irrelevant
But this one: Z3non_RAXXLA_Bj5 WE-A H17-19 and this one Z3non_RAXXLA_Bj5 WE-A H17-35 lead to no stars. The latter leads to an area primarily of Brown Dwarfs but nothing special at the exact spot it leads to you. The former I haven't checked yet, but will in a few days probably.
