Something on your mind?
I would suggest timocani.....we have no idea why but it produced UA over and over again.
I am just going to keep on in timocani every hour I can play. I'm using the private group I have no scruples about not playing in open I mix it up a lot.... it's all means to and end for me
I'm thinking the UA is looking for a specific system.
It works like a phage and need a host to inject it's DNA.
The system we are looking for is probably unpopulatef an in the search area of both the disco CGs that went on.
75 ly from Azaleach and 200 ly from Lemvava should give some intersections?
Possible planet patern: smal, smal, smal, large, medium, large and large(not sure about the last one).
This is according to light pattern on UA head.
Anyone found something like this in the area?
Edit: system should probably have an earth like, water world or ammonia world.

Sciencers and Otherwise,
TLDR - Please cobble up a multi-yield destructive test for Kitty which is as reasonably inclusive as possible.
If it helps, imagine you are commanding up to eight ships (but instancing gubbins) and there is a UA in the middle of them. Think of how you would position them, deploy their facilities, ready them, etc, to drag the absolute maximum observational yield out of an expiration test.
FSD piggy-backing, audio, visual, which system to conduct it in, sightings of transmission beams, anything and everything you can think of or that others have thought of. Important that. What others have thought of. Please try to be, above all, inclusive.
The trajectory of our collective endeavour would be greatly served. And less frustrating as we proceed to boot. (And, yeah, that is a haz-mat boot.)

This will sound quite brusque, but it is not meant to be individually insulting to any one (or more) of you. In fact, I'm anything but disparaging of this group, thread, endeavour, etc. I would not be sitting in-game doing nothing but watching the paint peel in a station's hangar if I were. But please, somebody, start a ball rolling on this already. This UA I've got is your chance to either put up or... well, you know the rest. Is you theory worth another commander's time reading about? Are your test hopes? Are some of you mad enough that you've been posting theories because you don't expect them to be disproved? Well, here's the UA you've been waiting on right here. Here is that ticket, commanders.
I am effectively grounded in Vaucanson Hub by my own eagerness to provide 101% maintenance of the UA in my hold. This is my choice; I'm not complaining and I'm not griping. It stays safe until being released for an expiration test and the observation thereof, and I grounded myself - but I would be daft not to prompt the drafting of its death sentence.
This UA is specifically ear-marked for destructive testing. I like the term expiration, others prefer destructive, some have used the word "Die." I really don't care, it doesn't matter. I couldn't give a fig (roll). Semantics vs Results, and it's only the results we're interested in, so who really does care what we call it - so long as we get them? In any case, I've seen nobody really getting hung up on semantics.
What we've been hung up by, and delayed by and confounded by has been a paucity of UAs for testing, transporting, selling, taking selfies next to, whatever else. There's nothing we can do about the lack of hints from FDev, but we sure as muck can do something with this UA to further our endeavours in cracking this mystery-or-not.
Basically, as of yesterday evening, not a one of you have a paucity of UAs to test. Yes, there is only one (though others may be successfully found, we just have no guarantee). However, the true paucity from my perspective here in Vaucanson Hub is in the efforts to cooperatively take advantage of a resource sitting in wait of being kicked out of the cargo hatch with my haz-mat boot and being left to scream all it bloody well wants.
So, a request:
Would those among you who are hoping, to whatever degree, and of whichever particular manner, that an expiration test will reveal, prove or confirm something about the UAs please post those test elements which you feel deserve to be in the mix of combined considerations for this test. Be concise (I realise the irony). Be specific. Be imaginative. But most of all, be at it.
Also, would those among you who, like myself, have no expectation of revelation (other than a strongly confirmed negative) from an expiration test also post test elements which they feel need to be included. Why ask this of the cynics (so to speak)? Well, if an expiration test of this UA fails to satisfy zealots (no offence) totally invested in any of the component parts of the test, there's a (frustrating) chance that things we can now (at last) take off the table will just creep back into this thread, endeavour, whatever.

I was in Timocani yesterday, didn't have much luck with SSS. I'll probably go back there tomorrow.
Good luck!
I believe this is morsecode, we must immediately decode it, do a PrintScreen and transscribe it to a MP3 and then listen carefully to it, while tinfoilhats are dialed to the setting "High". Seriously.
15 jumps left to HIP 88264....
Enthusiasm critical, coffee critical...
EDIT: Arrived, scanning system.
Scan complete... nothing...
Checking another nearby system with a bright white star.
Note: I have no UA, so feel free to visit this remote system of metallic clunks.
Sidenote: I might have some fuzzy ideas, but the starcluster i am checking is very very close to systems with "herculis" in their name(it is in the hercules constellation after all)....
wasn't it mentioned, that hercules went to the underworld, passing by "cerberus"...? Is this maybe a multi-staged riddle? UA as key for something hidden in this cluster?
Or sheer coincidence?!
96 herculis is a system with 3 suns. 3 heads?
/scouting onwards!

Nice little wing with Zenith. During my session almost 30 SSS (a bit less) with 4 Hafnium convoys and 3 T9 convoys. The rest: Gold traps or pirates that couldn't believe their trap had worked!
yeah that all we were getting moved to delphin just have a look

People here have worked so hard on the morse, it must be relevant but doesn't offer in any way a simple solution. Why would the UA expire unless that was the purpose in the solution? But then again why can you sell it unless that's the solution? The UA is a thing of beauty and of pain. No answers only questions.
We are finding lots of hafinum convoys but thats about it, strange thing is never seen one before started this search for UA's near where a UA's have been found Timocani.
coincidence?

I have some sorrowful news and some interesting news from reddit.
1st, the sad news. I have seen several (more than 1) posts that regard the guy who claimed to have "shared a cab with the devs" to be an actual dev himself. They take his word as strongly as MB's "have you listened to them" no one seems to care that the guy was suspended
2nd the interesting point, there was a link to a Screenshot of MB saying if raxxla was in the game there would never be any hints or clues, seeming to imply that it would have to be found by players. This may mean it's merely an Easter Egg but it gives me hope that there is stuff they'd never tell us up front!

It's not something that can just happen as the cargo hatch takes damage faster than other modules and so the UA will fall out well before the ship is destroyed. You'd have to keep repairing the cargo hatch while letting the other modules degrade. So it'd be more like deliberate suicide, and I guess there will be differing opinions as to whether that's a "sane option". If someone wants to try it I'd recommend starting with a heavily damaged ship, otherwise it's going to take a long time.
Incidentally, none of the Galnet stories about ship accidents have mentioned the UA except one story about a talk show host who implied there might be a connection between SS1 and the UAs. But there is no indication that the two shuttles that have recently been destroyed had UAs on board. That's purely speculation.
That means my search for Raxxla in the far reaches of the galaxy is not in vain (probably)
