I've been suspecting for a while now that the stations going down from the UA's getting sold to them are part of a Powerplay politics plot.
I think the best course for us is to find the 'cure' so we can pee on the fires of those dirty powerfreaked warmongers
As I said few posts ago, yes, that could be the right thing to do.
But I suspect that, even if we sell them in some other affected station, perhaps FD will be so kind to let the "results" be triggered the same.
We know from Galnet there are other people, Technicians, trying to work it out as well.

I couldn't have said it better. I agree.
It does not only prove that: they are explicitly asking us to do something...

If they really want UAs sold, they're going to have to increase the price by at least 500%. MHO.
Thanks to you, Han_Zen & Riz for clarifying SS1/XSS!
The thought did occur that getting the UAs in a shell around Merope, & raising the prices as seen recently, means that FD have effectively invited us to disable the stations around that area, presumably ready for Horizons/1.5. So I suspect anything we do will be countermanded by FD..."Do not adjust your set.....We have control....." ;-))

It's good to re-read these old articles. I noticed this sentence: ' we do know that Starship One’s engines experienced an unexpected surge of power just seconds before making its last jump'.
Yesterday, Eagle5 reported 'power surges' due to a damaged Power Distibutor.
Intriguing
Edit: Even more so, with 'Engine safety' disengaged.
But just as likely (perhaps more so) to be the result of an explosive device planted as part of PowerPlay plotlines.
Been wondering myself if Palin's station has been included as a means to take it, and him, out of the picture story-wise; thus letting community take centre stage.
At the same time, if the community falters, he's in the perfect position to be brought back in. If that's so - it's a clever ploy.
I don't think we're meant to be looking for a cure - especially not a rares one. Not yet. If one existed, then Delmonte's massive UA + Rare test would have given a result IMHO.
No, I think everyone should keep on the 'intergalactic selling bee'.
You all thought I was joking about the black Fed dropships swooping in and abducting those of us who are getting too close to the truth?
What has just been announced - black skins for all craft. Coincidence? Suuure. You keep leaking your EM signals out of your home like a leaky can, and we'll see who gets picked up first. ...ok, it'll probably be me since I'm talking openly about the Fed secret service, but otherwise...

Another thought- Given the similarity between the UA distortion field & FSD operation, the cure for the station problems might lie in the materials that are about to be introduced that will improve the FSD range.
EDIT: Obviously Dommaraa & I seem to be of similar mind!

My memory fails me- didn't Dr Palin fall out with the Federation (or Empire?) who stopped his UA research- so someone in those powers knows more than has been released to date.

Ah, but have you been picked up in Salvageable Wreckage & sold on the BM as a slave? How did you escape from servitude??He may have used an escape pod. Even I know how to do that

The RARE will not cure the station: the scientists will do what we were not able to do with our millions tests -> they'll find that a particular RARE will REACT with the UA, canceling or reducing its bad effects over the Stations. Exactly like they did with Heike Tea.
We did all our tests in open space with floating canisters, or in out hold: they'll do it in a laboratory.
In short: we'll just bring the rare to the station, "to their attention like", and they'll discover "in some way" what that rare does to the UA. Something like nullifying its effects.
"Oh George, Look! If I pour this fine Lavian Brandy over the UA, it does not corrode anymore! It seems it likes it!"
"Clive! Where did you take that Brandy?!"
"Oh, nothing... found it on the market this morning: some nice Cannoners traders brought it from Lave!"
A waste of fine Lavian Brandy if you ask me- as I sip my post-dinner JD

Oh my god yes please, If I'm available on Sunday I'll definitely join, I need to see if UA Convoys are still present or not.

About the rares fixing stations, before fixing them we should focus on our ships no? If we're not capable of preventing damage to our ship, how are we going to fix stations? As others have said, I don't think there is a way to keep the UA from damaging our ship/stations, so we'll just have to wait & see. (Unless MB pops by and tells us there is indeed a commodity/way to do so.
)
In that case, I may have "helped" 49 Aretis station, by sitting there with UA for two weeks. :/
(I have not played ED since Fallout 4 came out.)

People have reported seeing (and pirating) CMDR MBROOKES in Open. Who knows, he may join the biscuit barrel...
