I like the idea of a bridge between systems, or something situational (like time of year) that opens up a gateway. I checked Vega (again, I'd visited it a few weeks back checking permit-locked systems for clues) and Altair but nothing on the outskirts of the systems except regular signal sources, of which I dropped into a couple of High Grades, but nothing relevant. Altair has three Installations and there was also a visiting megaship and it has the Tourist Beacon 0127 'New Agreements' about colonies agreeing to respect indigenous life. There is also a Niu Lang system but I have not checked that yet, however it is inhabited with two outposts and one landable surface port according to EDSM.
The Quest To Find Raxxla
- Thread starter Macros Black
- Start date
The Greek myths are of course of a much later date than 12000 BC. The written stories are mostly far newer than 1200 BC as well.
The stories do however represent ancient events, even at the time they were told. Greeks would divide the history of man in five ages:
- The Golden Age, Ruled by Kronos(in some stories Astraea). A primordial age of peace, harmony, stability, and prosperity.
- The Silver, Starting with Zeus dethronement of Kronos, Prometheus teaching humans the 'arts' and the opening of Pandora's box.
- The Bronze age. A time of war and hard men. Undone by their violent ways and went to Hades.
- The Age of Heroes. The time around the Trojan war. The last period where the goods took active part in human life.
- The Iron age. The present, when the stories and myths get told.
The Greek ages tell a story of human decline, where the most ancient times are the ideal.

The stories told at the height of Greek civilization, does not represent their own time. The Trojan war is usually dated to about 1200 BC. The ages before, would be much further back in time.

Perhaps (just perhaps) except the X (=exotic) class ones ?
Afaik, nobody found one of these...
I know, they may or may not be actually ingame.

The exotic star is always the joker in the deck. It could be undetectable, even if it's massive. At least if it's located at Oort cloud distance.
how about looking here in our favourite constellation? Only current (2019) candidate for an exotic star..

only a short 10k ly trip
edit:
as is so often the way, system not in game (at least not navigable to under any of it names) . Also checked out any other mentioned candidate quark stars - either far too far away or not in game either.. <sigh>

GUYS! GUYS! I know where Raxxla is! Its in Mutter's Spiral! On the edge of it.
Are you joking or do you have any proof?
Yeah, he poested the same in Canonn Discord
I thought all planets have “apoapsis” and “periapsis”, I think the in-game terms were different though.
ED uses cocentric circular orbits, as an aproximation.
No, we have no proof it's anywhere in mutter's spiral!! 8\
And I found this if it's interesting. The ship is named Trial... It's in Hera system which has been stated as a god related to various things of interest... I didn't follow and I wish I had now. But this ship may be floating around in the game. It just flew past me and left. I think it wanted me to follow it!! 8o

Hello everyone. I am new to the game and am interested in seeing Raxxla. Can someone point me to the clues and the current thought process to where it might be, and lastly places already searched.
Welcome to the quest, CMDR.
The most recent clues seems to revolve around the information from the Codex about Raxxla itself and the Dark Wheel entries, also transcribed in the very first journal entry in this log. As to the actual whereabouts, I suppose your guess is as good as the ones already brought forth here.
The collective infobank for already searched locations can be found scattered throughout the log. Sorry.

Small find after entering "place that is no place" into a google search. There is actually a place called "no place" in Durham COunty UK. Mr. Wiki told me the name could refer to greek "Utopia" which means "no place" (didn't know that before). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Place
EDDB lists no bodies or systems with that name, but there are three minor factions that have Utopia in their name. I deem Starlight Utopia the most interesting. Presen in three systems butt currently up to nothing much in powerplay (BD+38 2037. Jarowair & MCC 549). Might be visiting there when I have made enough money to again be able to survive one or the other Conda accident.

The star Geminga means ‘it’s not there’, in the Italian dialect of it’s discoverer.
I found the star, but not Raxxla.
It’s called PSR J0633+1746 in ED.

Well there is a utopia in the game. I thought it was a system. I still think I saw a system name utopia. Maybe if you get allied with utopia you have found raxxla?!
