Why so secretive?

Can't talk about it; it's top secret.

(Can only say that if I'm lucky, I may have completed the quest, tell no one!)

Yeah, "if you're lucky". That's this whole thread in one sentence.

Lol. How about this: If and when I find Raxxla, you'll be invited

Thanks! (I'm assuming that's a promise, right?)

Nah,
don't be so negative.
RAXXLA is out there, just be water, my friend.
On a more philosophical level,
why does mankind strive for RAXXLA anyway?
Why the need for ascensions and beating the competition by being the first?

Fly safe and have some booze to unfreeze the thrusters!

The first time you venture to Charon in Horizons and fall down that crater rim?
You surely gonna shout "Raaaaaa-xxxxxxx-laaaaaargh!"


I will track the stars and the moons to find more hints.
Maybe we will be able to find an abandonded INRA outpost and claim it,
for the "Seekers of RAXXLA".

Dang, Cmdr R1nzl3r in deep trouble again, if this keeps happening, Cmdr R1nzl3r will never get home in time for the shadow Distant Worlds departure.

And that's not even the worst part, it's inside a neutron star field!
I really have no clue as to how he got inside that field, must have been a nav-computer malfunction.
