The Quest To Find Raxxla
- Thread starter Macros Black
- Start date
Have you heard the last Galnet news about the Gray Swan madness? It mention a nameless rogue planet (orbiting?) near Shamash
There are plenty of stars just like Sol. There are plenty of Earth-like planets just in the Bubble. There is absolutely nothing special beyond it being the human homeworld. You're going to have to do better than that if you want Raxxla. You've only got 400 billion-ish systems with several trillion celestial bodies and pieces of proto-planetary rubble. The rumors tell you what to look for. What would set a system apart as being important. Shiny is common but special is something else entirely. You aren't wrong for highlighting Sol but that isn't what made Sol special and you could have started elsewhere using the things that make help to identify Sol as important. Raxxla isn't one system (though the gateway/omphalos rift might be).
Humans are important but only because we are the storytellers. What would you be looking for that says at least pieces of Raxxla are here or at the very least Raxxla exists?

I think you may have misread the article
The ship was passing an unknown planet. (more info in the Thetis generation ship logs if you've not yet heard them, well worth it
)Is there a comet in Sol?
I agree, I'm pretty sure the Toast's reference to the jewel is actually talking about Raxxla itself, as the 'precious object' in the galaxy.
"To the jewel that burns on the brow of the mother of galaxies!" = Raxxla, the most precious thing in the Milky Way.
There are no comets anywhere (unless it's a new sneaky thing they added). There was planned to be, there are comet placeholders in the game that sometimes show up weirdly, and I believe they do/used to show up on some external sites when you look at the bodies in certain systems. There is/used to be comet placeholders in Lave, Tau Ceti, Sol, etc. They've been there since the early days, I think it was in Tau Ceti that a station used to orbit nothing cos it was supposed to be orbiting a comet, can't fully recall the details.
The Ram Tah and Palin missions are still in-game.
I am just going say it: the most valuable things in life are the very things others call trash or garbage. Have any of you actually looked at the occasional open floor boards in the docking area either with camera suite or via on-foot exploration? What does it say? Why might that be important?
Halley's comet is in Sol. It does not have a visible 3D model. It's just an empty point, with gravity.
It's not searchable.
pareco? there arent visually any comets, but forge has them, world has them, albeit hard to find. maybe we dont have the right eyes to see, maybe the eyes should be looking at gravitational anomalies rather than some raxxla blinker pointer...
yes but they are about poking the obelisks with items to get supposed lore. were there different ones? aimed at finding the sites and removed afterwards? could there be a mission that went to the first raxxla breadcrumb, that got completed and removed but we never figured out what we are actually looking at and never triggered part2?
As I recall first base was opened by accident and at the wrong time. I think it was done after analyzing the starry sky from the video.
And it was unexpected even for the developers, I remember later they were forced to remake the first ruins, but I'm not quite sure why.
Open floors, yes. I've been researching them for a long time and didn't realize ... There are a lot of things in the game that I don't understand, carefully crafted doors in ruins.
The ground engineers have a window to a hall, in this hall there is a man, standing near the computer and with his back to us.
But most of all I like to study the billboards ....
"Live Routing". That is Raxxla/Frameshift infrastructure. That is far from the only place that shows up, too. Surface port antenna have it. Some surface sites that don't even have docks have it. Faraway utilized external jump configuration. How does that happen? Each system utilizes HoloDirect and GravDistort communication to establish the jump (the nodes of the network are stations, outposts, orbital installations, surface ports, surface settlements, surface installations, and ad-hoc nodes CMDR SRVs, ships, fleet carriers, and your CMDR themselves with the Duradrive on our wrist.
Remember, a fleet carrier uploads telemetry at 40 seconds to jump. That means it is communicating with Raxxla/Faraway/Monolith Network and opening a wormhole to jump through to the destination system. I don't know if Omphalos Rift is the wormhole that opens up anytime you jump either in a normal ship or fleet carrier but it might. Wake scanning has been a thing since the beginning as Sidewinders were not originally warp capable and had to follow the warp wake of the vessel they escorted.
You do realize that when you you dismiss your ship that it raises up from the surface and engages Frameshift as soon as it hits 2 kilometers and then vanishes into a higher dimension? They couldn't have made this much more obvious. You even get the very bright flash and thunder-clap. Additionally, landing on planets the long blue tunnel is the ship phasing back into reality (real-space).
Still working on the intergalactic portions of this dang thing.

Yes, but they clearly draw a parallel between the Thetis event and the Shamash madness, citing an "unknown planet" (and thus "unnamed" or nameless).I think you may have misread the article

I didn't read the article I listened to the french translation, it is possible it wasn't a perfect translation...
There comets in game. They are not modeled, but they are accounted for and can be seen and targeted. By seen I mean just their marker. Parelco specifically a player has dropped in on and shared the screenshot. The mechanics are there for Raxxla to exist as some far away object that does not pop up on FSS and does not have a physical model. Raxxla may as well be the same, probably to avoid file dippers from finding it.
can you provide source to it? i never seen a comet before
On the issue of the signal linked to Shamash and Thetis; @CMDR ARGHouse has made certain observations which correspond to my ‘Older gods’ hypothesis.
As above so below, a clear dominion set out in game of a heaven and a hell.

Upon its own Thetis was not enough to illicit a significance, but a second within relative close proximity does in my opinion.
That particular region is heavily populated with ‘upper older gods’ eg the have an XYZ above Sol which commonly associated them ‘positively’ either with ‘higher’ gods, ‘Solar’ or ‘creation’ deities. The wider relationship cannot yet be established.
Again we have the locational information that ‘something’ exists in this area from the Thetis records, the fact something else has recently occurred ought to indicate that entity is fixed and likely within a sphere of influence of 15 lyrs, the presence of something similar in the Shamash system might help reduce this area, if we apply a similar sphere of influence around that system too the intersection might identify a potential focus point?
I have tried to extrapolate this location against other information I have been compiling around the Lost Realms hypothesis but as yet nothing seems to correlate, as this location sits too high up.
The area as I’ve said is a concentration with deities linked to creation myths. It ought to be noted the the goddess Thetis was also known as the creator of the universe!

You understood the reference!
They really ought to make a second SErenity film! Better yet another film ANd at ,east one more series of Firefly!
Space adventure with A PLOT!!!
