Well, obviously you are asking questions to nudge people into a certain direction because the Codex answers this question, but I don't remember now exactly which corporation controls the navigation computer which tells the FSD to which star to lock on. The permit is actually a "block" which blocks you from setting a star as a target for the FSD.

So I obviously suspect that Sirius or another corporation might be blocking access to Polaris or other stars (well aside from the Meta that FDev wants to block certain systems and regions for future story lines like currently Jupiter Rochester/Jupiter Division).

There's also the possibility that our Nav computer does not show certain stars at all but which are visibly there.

My first impulse was to look at the center of the Odins-Herme-Thoth-triangle, but nothing seems to be there in a 10 Ly-radius. But I didn't do an exhaustive search, as it's difficult to get the coordinates right.
 

Ah, thanks, I knew about the "Book Of The Dead" and about Maat, but so far I did not dive into it; there's also the solar barque with Ra traveling and Ra being reborn after every night which I found interesting because it mentions that Ra is divided into three deities at morning, midday and evening.
The "Breathing Permit Of Hor" sounds interesting because I didn't find anything interesting regarding Horus (the Horus-system looks unremarkable at first glance, but that can be deceiving). (Hor is not the god Horus, just to clarify)

Speaking of the dotted lines and three arcs, what if we should rotate it 60 degrees? Maybe we should turn the lock?

I think that the dotted lines and shape are a reference to Aristotle's wheel. It was a thought experiment on how an inner point on the radius can travel the same distance as the outer point on the radius. Essentially one of them is skipping like a stone on a pond. I'm not sure what this points to , but definitely seems to reinforce the idea that it could be a gate / wormhole.

 
Well, that certainly puts a potential totally different slant (no pun intended) on the Raxxla logo!
It answers the dark areas, green “corridors”, and also perhaps the hexagon part of the logo, though I still think the dotted line means it’s hidden.
So perhaps we’re looking for a body comprised of Trapiche emerald (never heard of them before) and gold. That would certainly meet the “ Raxxla is Treasure” theme from the original novella! But what are the three arcs? If they mean we’re looking for a very valuable asteroid then that could make sense.

Edit: it would also make sense of that DB livestream comment “but you don’t know what it is!”
Shurely it's the core of an asteroid. Just mine every one in the game until you find it. Simples.

Take a step further: Emerald is a variant of Beryl (Be = Berylium + Al = Aluminium + Si = Silicon + O = Oxygen) and Gold is of course Au.
Perhaps this could be an interesting approach to your idea?
 
Nope, the Pilots Federation issues the permits. But the Nav Computer and the FSD do what hardware manufacturers and software developers tell them to do ;)

Does anyone know if there is any way to confirm if the available stars to jump to in the galaxy map differ if you have a normal FSD compared with an Engineered FSD? Perhaps Felicity is modifying your drive to allow you to 'see' something that isn't visible using corporation standard drives?

It's a far-fetched idea, and can't see how it would've worked pre-engineers to find Raxxla but hey this forum is full of left-field ideas!

Lets all just hope...and even though it would be sort of cool.....that when they say Raxxla exists in game they dont mean the below analog device is being used in certain audio to create distortion affects ;-) however this is probably the more influential rabbit holes htat was discussed before.

The Item:

The Dev that loves analogues and crating sound patterns for "Acheivements awards and...Easter eggs"

The Korg delay monotron for instance has a very noticeable design around the rate switch and one he used quite frequently :p

Who was the Original?

Then come back and look at Elite Dangerous with a fresh eye.

Emeralds have hexagonal structure. That's a hint if there ever was one.

Very informtive video. And an interesting idea. So we may think it as a dragging 33gonal shape? Needs further search and attention. The girl in the video is very cute btw.

Non of them are the original. If ancient mythology is a key to finding Raxxla, it means that in the ED reality some of these stories actually happened. All the myths and religions are then different versions of the same story, retold a million times by humans that did not fully comprehend what happened.

It is possible that advanced aliens lived on ancient ED earth. We know that they at least have visited the Sol system. These aliens may have had some form of gateway technology, that allowed them to travel far.
The common theme in most myths is that there are two destinations, that requires passing a gateway. The heavens (Olympos, Asgard, the Field of Reeds, Swarga Loka etc.) and the underworld / realm of the dead (Hades, Niflheim, Duat, Patala etc).

If in ED some form of post Guardian alien is used as 'the gods', it would be natural to guess that Regor (Gamma Veloum) is the destination for the 'underworld' part of a portal. Hen 2-333 could be the 'Olympos', where the 'gods' had their actual home at the time.

The gate / gates would probably be placed within practical distanse to earth / Sol.

This is of course just an example of how FD could construct the Raxxla mystery to enable the old myths to be useful, without bein illogical. :alien:

P.S. The Guardians are referred to as 'The Dead', in the game.

Yeah, I already know those, but I don't have any (clear) connections yet to ingame stuff.

My problem is that I now have too many leads. It's enough for at least two weeks.

The game has thrown at me two new types of mission I have not seen before (does not mean anything, but they happened at my points of interest).
The game has routed me through the Ququve-system; I wasn't searching for Gold, so Gold found me. Terra Mater looks interesting. Terra = Tellus = Ceres, a.s.o.
The game has routed me through the Minerva-system; I was surprised to find a planet called Eris, given that we already have one in Sol.
I visited the Ma'at-system; oh, I'm sorry, it's Ma'a where the t is missing. Obviously, which system has an extra t in its name?
Then new approaches how to interpret the Isis-system.

It becomes obvious that all those things are not just Easter Eggs, there's a system behind it.
 
Current Musings on Parijat are that the tree is considered to be one of the divine KalpaTaru or wish giving trees... They are described as " having roots made of gold, a silver midriff, lapislazuli boughs, coral leaves, pearl flower, gemstone buds, and diamond fruit." - quoting wikipedia. This description matches in my mind the Meta Material giving "trees" surrounding the Thargoid Barnacles.
Ripe_Meta-Alloy_Pod.jpg

While at the same time being related to certain earthly flowering trees ( Nyctanthes arbor-tristis , Epiphyllum oxypetalum and Erythrina variegata ). These flowers remind me alot of the so called "flower ships" of the thargoids and the little drone things that shoot out of them.
The Parijat is also known as the "Night Queen" it flowers at night and wilts under strong sun. Is this a reference to the thargoid Queen and preference for night and possibly the cold? Equinox?
Again quoting from Wikipedia here: " . It is on account of these wish-granting trees that the asuras waged a perpetual war with the devas as the heavenly gods who exclusively benefited freely from the "divine flowers and fruits" from the Kalpavriksha, whereas the asuras lived comparatively in penury at the lower part of its "trunk and roots". The Asuras coming from the lower world .. Devas from the heavens... to play into what Han Zen was just mentioning. :)
Still playing with Sarasvati and the Confluence....
 
Cookie settings Jorki, apparently if they copy & post the web address we may see them but not if they link the video, something like that.

3am moment, it made more sense at the time I promise. Playing some sort of sound possibly combined with 2 types of cargo opens the Guardian Doors. Sounds of Space dev diary indeed, a massive in-your-face clue that was and we all missed it! :)

I do tend to reject cookies, or go with minimum selection. Will try changing it next time I get a prompt and see if it makes a difference.

You’ve opened the Guardian doors????
