Possible, as belt clusters can be filtered out of the display and ignored but I prefer the permit lock theory.This is probably how whatever raxxla may be is hidden. Most likely the real DW station as well.

Bruh, you seem to +1 an awful lot of the (entertaining maybe, but) rubbish I post. Are you a stalker?This is probably how whatever raxxla may be is hidden. Most likely the real DW station as well.
Just finished 'And Here The Wheel' , there is a part where they navigate and asteroid belt using visual clues on certain asteroids that point the way to Smuggler's Junction, which was an asteroid base. I seems like a cool way to hide something that couldtve been incorporated into the game. I feel like i remember possibly DB saying you don't know what you might find in an asteroid belt. Pretty sure the vid was posted in this thread but i have no idea who posted it.I'm assuming this is nothing new. But do the new surface deposits usually look this thargoid. I usually only do fissures. And not usually up close. I was exploreing and looking in asteroids because of the other thread. Couldn't remember if this is a normal look and can't find any good pics online.
I could actually see this from a pretty good distance away. As in multiple asteroids away. Not what I normally think of as a normal asteroid deposit.

Don't have stuff to scan it on me.
Yes. No, i give praise to folk who give imo quality posts. No malice typically, stuff like that. Also i figure the more people i +1, the more will return the favor.Bruh, you seem to +1 an awful lot of the (entertaining maybe, but) rubbish I post. Are you a stalker?
Gratefully reciprocated! But, I still want some of your onionhead [see edit] cos you (still) seem happy!Yes. No, i give praise to folk who give imo quality posts. No malice typically, stuff like that. Also i figure the more people i +1, the more will return the favor.
Uncle Brabes said similar things about nebulae, but alas I don't recall when or where either.

was reading through this thread tonight and found this comment interesting. I've been listening to ice planets with geological/biological formations, a specific line "come speak to me" comes out clearly but the rest is garbled around noise. I haven't yet figured out what that is related to but your comment seemed related to my curiosity about what that transmission might be. I noticed that I hear "come speak to me" on any ice planet with geysers even those with atmospheres. I noticed it first when I was out near the rim and it got me so curios I started fixating on it. Tried to leave it alone for a while thinking I was just hearing things but having started exploring again I've noticed it once more. I am going to find some other types of planets ,rocky metal etc and see if they also say something or add to the line I'm hearing. It had not occurred to me that it might relate to raxxla but I will post more details if I find any thing new.has any thorough investigation been done on the "distorted planet noise sounds" that you get from hovering bodies in FSS?
i would imagine, if raxxla to be tied to such easily overlooked (yet FDEV took the time and effort to put it in) mechanic, that it would be behind some sort of out of the ordinary, and quite unique sounding planet, that could reveal something once the sound has been processed in some way. this has been done before, in many puzzle solving activities, where an image is converted to a noise audio file, through use of conversion softwares, wich can be re-converted back into original image form. i came across a few very interresting, unique and strange sounding bodies over the few hundred hours i spent in the game.
i also noticed that these keywords appear a lot around raxxla : whispering, singing, etc... if any whispering would appear in ED, i would imagine it would be from either witch space, or planet surface noise sounds.
it could also be something Dark wheel related. some sort of encrypted noise message from them, coming from a surface of a planet, and only picked up by the FSS noise surface sounds.

How do I speak to a planet?
Installation probably a bug, friend in Colonia has one on their Nav Panel with no name but can still be targeted and flown to, just says unauthorised when you get there iirc, no name of it at all anywhere, so put it down to bugs.
Sounds a lot like the Engineers huh? Been thinking for a while that they are the DW. Felicity refers to DW in Codex as being real (only one who actually does rather than say theyre a myth), names like Turner & Jameson imply certain heritage and Ryder is a direct link. Quite a few have to go through nefarious contacts to access, the others require a test of 'skill' in various roles - combat, trade, smuggling, explo. Cant quite make their bases into a wheel on the GalMap though....
You mean Chloe Sedesi, the Palin clone engineer in Witch Head Sector DL-Y d17 (closest to Col 70)?Except Jorki is allied with all of them (except t’ young lass that recently appeared & is Palin’s sacrificial offering to t’thargoids (who’s the nearest engineer to Col 70?)), has been for a long time and never got any mission or been offered any other test from them. But yes, that is another example of the in-game test mechanism. So there is a test for engineer acceptance, there may be a similar test for the mysterious Elite Federation of Pilots, and we hope for
a similar test for TRDW so we can get some hints as to Raxxla’s location.
I've heard that one. At least the 'speak to me' part. It's not an ice planet thing. It's a volcanic activity thing.was reading through this thread tonight and found this comment interesting.

Probing is not an issue that should be ignored.OMG YOU GUYS!
lol, not quite what I had in mind, but an interesting perspective.Probing is not an issue that should be ignored.
Protection is important.

You forgot between Friday Sun-Set and the first three stars rising on the Horus-zone Saturn's Day.Like this:
O Master of sublime name and great power, supreme Master; O Master Saturn: Thou, the Cold, the Sterile, the Mournful, the Pernicious; Thou, whose life is sincere and whose word sure; Thou, the Sage and Solitary, the Impenetrable; Thou, whose promises are kept; Thou who art weak and weary; Thou who hast cares greater than any other, who knowest neither pleasure nor joy; Thou, the old and cunning, master of all artifice, deceitful, wise, and judicious; Thou who bringest prosperity or ruin, and makest men to be happy or unhappy! I conjure thee, O Supreme Father, by Thy great benevolence and Thy generous bounty, to do for me what I ask... (Seznek, 1953)
Correct incantations and positions of the fixed stars are important. Some people prefer magical talismans, statuettes and knick-knacks, I'm personally more of a follower of the path of silent observation.

Not sure that Drew Wagar’s Dark Wheel (Rebecca, Elyssia, Luko, etc with HQ in Rebecca’s ship in Tionisla graveyard) are anything to do with FD’s TRDW, their stealth station and Raxxla; since we do know that he was not party to anything to do with Raxxla. And EPF seem similarly unrelated to TRDW (unless they are the same thing and it’s more obfuscation!!), as Han_Zen said it may have been dropped after DB’s talk although a quite similar mechanism may also be used for TRDW recruitment. We do know (I think) that TRDW is a multi-tentacled organisation. None of the various Elite-ranked members of this thread have reported any such recruitment overtures!
I think DB’s words about Royal Navy and ensigns were confusing; think he was saying the RN have the White Ensign but other organisations have “defaced” versions (e.g. British Antarctic Territory), but don’t see the relevance, must watch it again. We really don’t know anything about how to join TRDW, whether Elite is necessary or not. Would make sense lorewise, but I think it’s not combat necessarily, more likely Exploration since they’re a set of “adventurers, explorers, investigators and treasure-hunters”
