@@MATTIUS i have the polaris system map... there is a gas giant with 8 moons.. it orbits the second star in the system. the second star looks like the star in the background on the picture of the dark wheel station in the codex.... i have been after the polaris permit for over a year..
Nice wrap up of some theories I've been thinking about, too. However I believe the unobtainable permit locks are yet a placeholder for future content. Since it is kinda indicated by entries in the Codex knowledge base that Raxxla and TDW station already are in the game it wouldn't fit FDev's style to place them behind unobtainable permit locks. I'm rather thinking they probably use the incredible huge haystack of asteroid( cluster)s in game to hide these two needles. Have you ever noticed that sol's asteroid belt seems to be the only one in game that has no asteroid clusters you can plot a course to via the navigation panel? What better way to hide the biggest easter egg of video game history just on or in orbit of 19 fortuna?
Interesting points niemand. Funny you should mention the asteroid belt as it was the possible site for a larger planet than Ceres that had broken up eons ago. Soontil as we see was attacked with a weapon that broke up the crust and created massive seismic events. There could be something in the asteroid belt that at least, starts you on the path to raxxla.
15:19 I had to keep replaying the section to hear exactly what you called the FSD, Holly Hop. Reason being, is my dog is named "Holly Hawk", and it sounded so similar. Good stuff, Commander. It's well researched, and well presented. Thank you for helping to keep this game interesting. o7
@@MATTIUS I love Red Dwarf. I even bought ARX so that I could get LEO as my ship voice. Or 'Hol' as he should be called. copyright and all that I guess :)
@@MATTIUS I also named my alt account (thanks epic) CMDR Cat Lister. lol Lister was already taken. Even Rimmer was too! I guess some people liked him after all :P
@@MATTIUS This one! Because when I saw it, I realised I had never tried to visit Polaris despite it being so prominent, and wanted to see the connection! Kinda sad that I can't visit it (yet)
I truly enjoy the structure of your videos. It seems very well researched. You make me want to restart my own search for Raxxla. Something I gave up on years ago. Great job man!
I don't know, I've saw something weird in the Formidine Rift once, a contact that I couldn't scan, it said scan required then just said "unknown" it jumped away before I could get a good look at it... I don't know, probably just another ship, I've just never had a contact that said "unlnown" before. Still think about it now.
@@CMDRShadow I do actually, right on the edge of the Trafeau and Dryooe sectors, it was quite a way out, I saw something on contacts it said scan required, but when I tried to target it it said unknown, it jumped away before I could get near it or get a look at it. Probably just another pilot, but I've never had an unknown contact before. I just wish I could remember which system exactly.
Awesome video. I hope you keep making more videos on this subject. My son and I have been following up on the connections of raxxla and the dark wheel. We went to tau ceti and unlocked the van mannen system to see if there was a connection there. Other than a pirate base literally in the middle of nowhere we couldn’t find anything. We were about to attempt to find the Polaris system permit mission but I’ve recently learned it’s not in the game?
great video tying together a lot of good bits - a lot of stuff I overlooked in this as well including the connection to Sirius... I find it interesting that you have the Turners, the Jamesons, etc still in the game, but engineers were added later, and if "it's been there since the beginning" Sirius Corp sounds like a solid place to investigate....
I can't seem to *look at* Polaris and get any sort of signal. But I guess just for food for thought... I was going to try gathering the sound of Polaris and the sound of Sag A* and putting them together to maybe form something new in the image of the spectro? Who knows at this point.
That is a explanation of Homer's book the oddessy. Haven't listened to symphony x in years haha. I'll check them out when I get in front of my PC tonight
@@Bishop115Gaming Most of there songs are at least 10 minutes long haha. Seen them a while ago at bloodstock. More into Devin townsend tbh but i have frequented there albums occasionally.

Hey all, is there anywhere with high quality recordings of these sounds available for download? As an audio engineer there's a few weirder tricks id like to try with the signals to see if there's anything that can be cleaned out or inferred...

Hey Mattius, thank you so much for these great videos. I'm fascinated by this whole story and your videos are a pleasure to watch. I have a question, however. It may be the accent and the fact that English is not my mother tongue, but what do you mean by "Overseer Raxxla" or "OCR Raxxla"? Once again, thank you.
Oisir raxxla is a race from the illustrated book, "alien worlds : an illustrated guide" by Steven eisler ( a pen name for Robert holdstock, who wrote the dark wheel novel).Honestly, I get the accent thing, I can bearly understand myself most times haha. Glad you like the channel anyway Aedrieus. Another video will be up later on today.
What if the mountain signal isn't a mountain but a map. The lines corresponding to space lanes. But how would one find the orientation of the map if it is one?
