FrontPage updated.

But I have a Family, and sometimes I like to Play the Game ;)
So if you think something should go on the FrontPage, please PM me, or it didn't happen.
It's really impossible to follow the thread right now.

Don't burn your self out.

You are a hero :)
 
Found a second site a few hundred meters from the first...

PLEIADES SECTOR JC-U B3-2 2

Co-ords: 49.7519 x 102.1610

Edit - just been informed of a 3rd site nearby... co-ords 49.5347 x 102.0792.

So that is 3 barnacle sites within a few hundred meters.

Site 1 = 49.9075 x 102.7141
Site 2 = 49.7519 x 102.1610
Site 3 = 49.5347 x 102.0792

If I am an Alien Specie, and my SYMBOL is the BARNARD LOOP, I draw it as I see in my sky, where I live. So I don't live INSIDE the Barnard Loop.
Perhaps close to it, with it very big in the sky. But not inside.

Makes sense?

like what i posted a few mins ago but got missed in the flood of posts? :)

"is it possible that the logo is the view from the alien homeworld?

we know that it looks like a nebula but what if it is a combination/amalgamation of 3 nebulas viewed from a specific angle. Does anyone here have the skills to work this out?"
 
To confirm, we've found Barnacles on both Planets AND Moons (I think I just read a moon was the most recent one)

Are all these locations:
-Tidal Locked
-Facing the Sun
-Low Gravity
-Mostly Rock
?

All barnacles are in tidally locked planetoids and in the bright area? Are we sure?

Anyone kindly be able to post a list of the found barnacle locations?

"Hey Jonh, didn't the last inter-species war started with us opening fire on unknown stuff?"
"Sure Bill, why?"
"Oh, nothing."
*opens fire on unknown stuff*

Ten minutes later.

"Hey John, didn't the stations start glitching when we brought mysterious stuff there?"
"Sure Bill, why?"
"Oh, nothing."
*Delivers mysterious stuff to stations.*

Seriously, we're the worst species ever. :p

Wise words indeed.
I fear greed got the better of us.

Again and again ;)

Why are you guys still selling these to the stations?...How did you guys not realize they would destroy stations just like they destroy your cargo hatch???
 
It can also mean they have an understanding of one's self to flag thats where they came from.

Example: UN Flag is basically a picture of Earth and its Continent, but thats not how we 'view' ourselves:

If they're a space faring species, it could be a symbol of the Homeworld. I wouldnt completely rule it out

I do not rule out, I agree with you. It depends if the symbol was created before they started traveling in space, or not.
Or they got a selfie from space ;)

That's what Im trying to confirm, sadly Im stuck at work for a few more hours and cant check planetary information via in-game. Trying to get a headstart of planets I should look into in other Nebulae that match the information of discovered sites.

That, and stupidity. Fun story:

Over half a century ago, it was theorised that chemicals could be used for 'local' climate engineering to improve food production in SE Asia. It didn't happen, but industrialisation more then made up for it. Now we have too much crap in the air because we didn't really knew what we were doing at the time. The primary solution to our current problem being researched? "Geo-engineering", a cool word for putting new stuff in the air to counter the other stuff we put there. We could ofcourse stop transporting beef from Argentina to Italy just to sell it as Prosciutto di Parma to the Chinese with a hefty mark-up, but that sounds too complicated and who even knows that will work. :)

Today has been a great summary of the human spirit. :D

Well the thought could be:

More primitive species might use symbols of what they can see (Constellations)
More advanced species might use symbols to identify where they've come from.

As someone else has mentioned, this symbol could even be a combination of Nebulae, sort of like the Thargoid UN (United Nebulae, muahaha)

Hell it could be as simple as a tribal symbol. It could mean very little, as I understand the fact the UA's scanned ships and showed us 2d images of ourselves via code, it didnt really amount to anything (yet?). This could be the same thing, a neat discovery that wont amount to anything for a wee bit.
 
Yeah, processing a clip now, but check out my last stream recording!!

Yep, check out my last stream!

I just looked.

The 'flower' you seem to be referencing is just a meta alloy.

Each instance spawns two organic structures like that, with one meta alloy for each structure. You shoot the structure and then you can scoop up the meta alloy.

So I'm stuck above the barnacle in JC-U.

Thrusters are inactive, still at 100% integrity though.

Popped up to see if I could spot the anaconda from a distance, looked away for a second and heard my thrusters cut. http://twitch.tv/hobonerz

I'M PUTTING IN ANOTHER DISTRESS CALL! NEED HELP!

Did you see my earlier similar post? This is either a thing or a bug but I think it's a thing! ;-)
