The Quest To Find Raxxla
- Thread starter Macros Black
- Start date
As said here, and on OP's currently updated page 1 post(as of last Thursday)
: Confirmed Information
■ Raxxla does exist:
- David Braben: "What a silly question, of course!"
- He didn't say "You don't know what it is" as an answer to the question, he said it to the guy sitting next to him. However, we don't know what it is since we haven't found it yet.
- Michael Brookes: "It's in the Milky Way, but I can't tell you where at this stage. It's a journey that everyone has to travel for themselves."
- There will be no clues, "but I think you'd have to make some of it a tiny little bit obvious so people know what they're doing."

The subject of alien races came up and, as a writer, he reminded me of an 'Alien background doc' given to the writers as research material. I do have this, but I'm not allowed (due to NDA) to publish it. Raxxla is part of that. None of the writers were allowed to explore Raxxla, it was very much reserved for 'in-house' development (not surprisingly!).
Then DB came out with his statement. I was a little surprise at what he said, but it was in a public space and others overheard it too.
Raxxla definitely exists in ED.

■ Currently the only reliable source for clues is the in-game Codex. Previous games and novels are mostly not canon and/or don't have information on Raxxla. They might or might not be used as resource and/or inspiration.
Codex entries are below:
The Dark Wheel: http://bit.ly/TDW-codex
Raxxla: http://bit.ly/Raxxla-codex
Codex playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDwoKO1L_wOXx7A5sNwrQdagB_4dPi1Jc
■ However "The Codex is a joint initiative from the Pilots Federation and Universal Cartographic": https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5c0fadbfa9a9182e01271bb2

- Do not rely on all of the information posted there but it has extensive researches in it, including information regarding the Dark Wheel missions that were removed.
Misinformation
These are unconfirmed statements, we will assume they are false until we get sources for them.
X Someone honked the system but didn't scan it. This rumor states a source as Elitecon (oldest citation) and a Dj Truthsayer video (with no link provided)
X Decyphering the word “RAXXLA” using “HEXEDI” as a key results “KWATIS”. Nothing has been found there and it’s assumed just a coincidence at this stage.
X CMDR FLAVIUS AQUILI stated he had found Raxxla and gave some coordinates, @[PC] 100.RUB (AXI) surveyed around said coordinates and in the system thoroughly and found nothing of interest. It’s now marked as deliberate disinformation.
X CMDR Ticondrius on the Mobius discord server came across an Anarchy system within 1,000ly of Azrael with a blue-white star, with 2 elw and 3 ww and Raxxla. The proof image was fake

Has anyone fully explored the, "Stock 2 Sector," It's right in the middle of the wredguia sector and is fairly small. I'm assuming it has some special star in it like a supernova. I can't find what it revolves around though. And the name is odd.
It's right next to the coordinates were looking into.
I just posted this in the wrong thread. ><
The sector is a little bigger than I thought, but that still may mean it has a weird center piece to it. I'd never even heard of it until just now. I saw it and wondered if an update messed up another sectors name. There is a stock 1 sector also, but not stock 3... Stock one is basically like stock2 but at the positive version of the third coordinate like where the previous incorrect calcs were coming up. Kind of interesting. They seem a bit artificial with those names. I wonder if they are hiding something.

Hm ...but on picture u calculate different thing then I do 
On picture you found "mass center". If it is solid methal plate - then it is center of masses there:
Also there is another intresting point, point which is eqauly remote from routes AB, AC, BC

That second coordinate("Col 285 Sector CB-V b3-3") is next to 65 Andromedae and HD 17092 and HIP 14264.
In fact a triangle of andromedae. 63, 64, and 65. A triangle oddly similar in shape the one we're using now. But facing in the opposite direction somewhat and flipped over I think. Technically, I think it would have been rotated to face the other way 180 degrees.

Ya I just followed the guy on the youtube video
I like the equidistant point idea !Yeh, my code couple posts before found point N where |NA| = |NB| = |NC| (|NA| is distance from N to A).Ya I just followed the guy on the youtube video
Again, many options. It will be something with 6 vertexes (maybe even perfect cube) ... but for such object u can imagine many properties as well.
Btw, if there are 4 points, then there is only 1 sphere which fits all 4. And you can get center of it.
Have you noticed how Sagittarius A* isn’t at the centre.
Also .. The 3 star clusters I have found all point to the bubble, The Orion cluster is all M class. Then if you follow the Fibonacci curve out you reach the next cluster of just O class (I forget the name. I found it while searching the Cassiopeia area). Follow out the curve again and you reach the Eagle nebula “the pillars of creation” where the star cluster is made of F type
stars. That’s MOF (metallic organic framework? Interesting tech) if you continue out further you reach a nebula with guardian planets. I’m going there next. Don’t care if it’s locked, I’m gonna find a way in. There has to be a way.
Also hen 2-333 is locked as it’s giving off massive amounts of energy. The locked area is 150 ly across. If I can find a neutron nearby I’m gonna plot a jump through the quarantine sector just to see if it throws me off course... for science. The pilots federation has no right to keep us locked out. Why do they get choose our boundaries, keep us caged up. You can not contain the spirit of mankind. It’s time for a revolution. It’s time to rise up and throw off the yoke. I will bring terror to the pilots federation and collapse their house of cards around them ... only joking.... just space crazy... that’s all. .... ha. ...
