the body parts are Jovian body parts, from that Jovian who exploded a few years ago, in a teleporter incident.
Hmmmmm, teleporters.
As for the numbers, most are communication equipment check messages, translated they are:
Quote:system initializing...checksum complete! console online...decrypting broadcast... 25%... 42%... 78%... 91%... complete! Aligning receiver node... complete! commencing broadcast...
syntax error, search="healthy"-synonym... result="well"
writeconflict date/current=24/10/116 replace/string=09/07/113
alternateref="sequence"
Eram/40216465 ?
syntax error, search="marriage"-synonym... result="matrimony"
packet loss - 0.015% commencing BCA shutdown... complete! system shutdown initiated
transmission terminated!
Either that, or it's a god damn AI using Hilen Tukoss's profile. |

Greetings, Tukoss-haan. Welcome back.
For those who are wondering, the italicized text is a form of old data encoding known as-- uh, had to check, 'hexidecimal.' It's archaic, a sort of academic curiosity from old databases.
And those items? Those are the remnants of the Jove ambassador who attempted-- and failed --to teleport himself in YC107.
Maker. Is Tukoss trying to clone a Jove?

The encoded portions are a simple hexadecimal code, which translate to the following:
First segment:
system initializing...checksum complete!console online...decrypting broadcast... 25%... 42%... 78%... 91%... complete!Aligning receiver node... complete!commencing broadcast...
Second segment: syntax error, search="healthy"-synonym... result="well"
Third segment: writeconflict date/current=24/10/116 replace/string=09/07/113
Forth segment: alternateref="sequence"
Fifth segment is problematic. "30003413" is a CONCORD-standard system tag for Eram, where Site One is deployed. The second tag does not appear in the standard index, and may refer to a system within "wormhole space".
Sixth segment: syntax error, search="marriage"-synonym... result="matrimony"
Seventh segment: packet loss - 0.015%commencing BCA shutdown... complete!system shutdown initiated
Eighth segment: transmission terminated!
The likelihood is that we are just seeing a somewhat malfunctioning translation unit; code such as this would typically be processed and removed before a message is transmitted.
Mr. Tukoss, the Ethics Committee has gone quiet since your disappearance, but the channel remains ready to be utilized should the project resume. |

It is good to hear from you again, Hilen, though I am somewhat confused - and a little worried - by your message.
I will see what I can do to help, and I doubt I will be alone - many of us still remain and have been keeping an ear out for any sign of you since you ceased communication some years ago.

It's good to receive word of you, esteemed colleague. Your reappearance is perfectly timed, as Arek'Jalaan was thinking about remodeling itself, and most researchers were a bit restless in your absence.
I will try to provide some of the parts you required. If another transmission opportunity arises, could you elaborate a bit more on the use they will be put to? |

I've had a lot of good friends (well, some people I got drunk with) come to sticky ends (or rehab, or Sansha zombification, or occasional mild headaches) because of your ridiculous cause, leading to failed business interests and significant loss of ISK and time on my part.
I expect compensation.

Contracts. Market inquiries. Negotiations with collectors or older capsuleers. These sorts of things are regarded as curiosities by some capsuleers with more money than sense, and so they acquire them as a matter of course. I'd actually debated trying to acquire a set for purposes of testing some theories involving a certain class of Sleeper facility in higher-grade wormholes, but never got around to acting on the idea.

By all means, I'm sure A'J was populated only by the most reliable and vaunted of individuals; whose judgement is in all matters beyond reproach, so do go ahead if you have such items and want to put the theory of natural selection through blind trust to the test.
But for people who'd trust each other about as far as you could throw a neutron star, you sure are giving our long lost friend here the red carpet treatment.
If the price of undying loyalty against all evidence of such being a terrible idea is a splodge of text on a frequently attacked edifice, hit me up. I'm not a bad writer and I could do with an environment of third-party blind trust in my daily life.

Mr. Pryce; some quick thoughts on identity. In the first place, Tukoss-haan's former employer was known for being on the bleeding edge of consciousness digitization. Their founder was evidently one of the first to undergo the process, even. What's more, we live in a world where memory engrams and skills can be imprinted on a mind by technical means; where consciousness can be scanned, backed up, or transmitted nearly-instantaneously to a fresh body, whose mind is a blank slate onto which a consciousness can be imprinted.
Clearly, 'mind' and 'body' are still linked-- but mostly due to the usual presumption that a biological brain is required for consciousness to exist. Clearly, this is a product of bias, not fact.
Now, a question for purpose of mental exercise. Let us say that a person suffers a blow to the head, and loses a portion of their memory, or their personality changes. While we will frequently say that they've changed, that they're a different person from their old self, we do not say that it is not the same person, excepting metaphorically. Similarly, let us say a mind-state transfer on clone activation goes awry, and the person loses a portion of their memory, etc.; we still consider it the same person, just, well, different. Why not apply this to a digitized consciousness?
What I suppose I'm saying is this: calling whatever is posting as Tukoss not Tukoss is, well, a little bit old-fashioned, provided that we're assuming that the security on the Summit is such that it can verify that the infomorph posting as Hilen Tukoss is indeed Hilen Tukoss, or a close enough simulacrum as to pass the security checks.
And ultimately, what's the harm in handing little pieces of Jove to him? I know this is a trope from terrible horror holos, but what's the worse that could happen? An improperly-digitized consciousness is imprinted onto a Jove body? And...? Biomass is cheap. The DNA isn't a superweapon. At worst case, he shows us how to use weird little facilities on wormhole space that we hadn't figured out before, or-- what?
Of course, this doesn't change that Tukoss abandoned an Ishukone subsidiary, and coerced capsuleers into firing on Ishukone ships during his flight to the Republic. Now, that is another thing entirely.

No, you are not. Most of us are quite worried about just what is really going on, and I fully expect Acquisitions to keep the samples secure until we figure this out. AJ is all about expanding scientific knowledge. Giving a villain the means to take over the Eve cluster will not advance science. |

Satisfactory to who though? the property may be yours (or more correctly The Antiquarians) to do with as you wish, but the consequences are not yours to bear alone.
To address the ancillary commentary knocking about along this line of conversation:
I highly doubt this is something so dramatic as 'the end of the cluster as we know it', but even a mere theft or con to obtain some exceptionally rare items would be a source of embarrassment and regret for those involved. This community has fallen far indeed if common caution is 'paranoia'.

There is insufficient evidence either way, in which case caution is the sensible option. Though last time he spoke, Tukoss didn't have hexadecimal interlaced with his comms with running commentry such as 'equivalent term' and referential material.
Broken translator? Possible. Not too bright thief with a vocoder and bad translator set up? Also possible.
I'd ask you for your evidence that he is genuine, but your reputation precedes you. I'd welcome a surprise though.

And here we have someone who gets it. Thank you Ms Del'thul and Ms Ma'Chello for illustrating that caution need not be based on some apocryphal nonsense, but instead the practicalities of preserving possession, heritage and rarities.
Ofcourse, these are priate possessions and their owners are capsuleers, so they can do as they wish, but I'd hope the counsel of their peers would mean at least a little in how they choose to act.

You have a reputation as an anarchic and somewhat unstable element in terms of action and opinion. Desirable traits in a killer and mercenary; not so much in an analysis of behaviour and the potential consequences of misplaced trust.
i appreciate you're very capable at the work you do in space, but i will admit to not placing you highly on a list of consultants on an issue such as this. However, if you have hard facts to bring to the table, I may have judged you poorly, and will ofcourse extend the appropriate apology.

You're really too agitated by such a peripheral issue. You should calm down.
Furthermore, those are not facts, they are as much supposition as my own statements. Thank you for your input, however, your point of view might not be one I personally hold to, and is posed rather aggressively, but it is certainly a potential. If this is truly the legitimate return of Hilen Tukoss, I am sure that some will be elated and others (notably the State) will be rather less so.

Giving someone the benefit of the doubt in this wonderful 'verse of ours is what gets you betrayed and at worst into an early grave, Priano. I'd imagine a capsuleer of your experience surely would know that by now, if not, I envy the idealistic naivete you still retain. More so goes with people who mysteriously disappear without a trace and then suddenly at the eve of new events arrives back to the scene posting in a manner uncharacteristic of them with radically different syntax and using hexadecimal code. That, my dear, is all the evidence I need to keep my guard up until I've been given reason to the contrary. I'm an old fashioned Angel, a gentleman's pirate. A healthy dose of paranoia is part of the decorum.
As for your questions and theoretical conundrums... I have no desire to get into a discussion about transhumanistic ideas, not in this vitriolic venue anyway. If you wish to continue this discussion further, you can reach me via the neocom system.

In its previous iteration, any requests made of the Arek'Jalaan Acquisitions department usually required a research proposal to accompany them in order for the project's contributors to judge whether release of valuable resources was justified. This protocol applied to everyone involved with the project, Tukoss included.
I am yet to see an explanation or proposal for how Tukoss intends to use the items he has recently requested and note that said items are perhaps the most unique of any item requested for any purpose by Arek'Jalaan since it was founded.
While such a decision ultimately rests with the leads of the Acquisitions and Security departments I would humbly suggest that it seems reasonable to withhold said items until Tukoss can present some explanation for why such difficult to obtain and rare objects are required.

This.
Even if there were absolutely no doubts about Dr. Tukoss' sudden reappearance and identity, this is the major obstacle for such a request.
I would like to remind everyone here that at the same time, an official Symposium is currently held to determine how the newly resurrected Arek'Jalaan should be organized. I would like to invite all the former prominent members of Arek'Jalaan who have not yet participated to look at the proposals, question them, or even offer another one. The symposium first phase will end very soon now.
If my proposal was to be selected (with or without a few amendments), greenlighting (or not) Dr. Tukoss's project would, given the incredible resources asked, undoubtedly be a task for the Division Leaders Council. |

My submissions are still in secure storage in the Site One archives. Eifyr has made no progress in the interim despite three years of "work". If they can't, or won't, do it, we need to find analysts who can produce results from elsewhere.
The time for theory is past. CONCORD has its eye on wormholes at last, and you know how that will turn out.

My Master has requested I relay this message:
"It is obvious that Mr. Tukoss has gained access to a communications medium that he is not authorized to access. The messages being sent are text based; the coding is most likely machine code from the terminal he is accessing, untranslated. This is similar to coding used by certain operatives accessing clone implants in order to bypass CONCORD/Empire communication restrictions. It could also suggest a location outside of normal communications networks, such as within a Sleeper star system.
The items that Mr. Tukoss requests are interesting. It is believed by some researchers that the Sleepers are ancestors of the Jove. Seeking the only known (and widely accessible) sources of Jove DNA suggests an attempt to understand how Sleeper technology interacts with Jove physiology.
The potential applications for this are fascinating. Given the Mirror sites located in Sleeper territory and their information regarding neural degeneration, it is likely Mr. Tukoss is seeking to gain access to their network in a more direct manner. Bluntly, using a cloned Jove body to interact with the Sleeper network. It is likely that this will fail without substantial infomorph modification.
Likely results of misuse of this technology are... unpleasant at best, and a threat to the Cluster at worst.
I cannot fault the potential gains, however. It is what I would do if I had the opportunity and resources."

Your analogy isn't quite accurate.
In the first place, Hilen Tukoss isn't a stranger to some of these pilots; he's known, even if he's acting very oddly now, and his status as a human is in question. Further, 'bits of a presumably long-dead Jove' aren't necessarily 'whatever he asks for.' They're valuable trinkets, sure, but ultimately it's just biomass.
In the second place, as an agent of the Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive, my duty is straightforward. The formal position of the Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive is that Hilen Tukoss is a criminal and a traitor, whose defection from Zainou included destruction of Ishukone Corporation vessels. It is therefore that the Enforcement Directive will not treat with him.
As a citizen, however, and one with ties to Ishukone Corporation, I feel that sometimes progress requires that we deal with devils. This deal naturally shouldn't bring risk to ourselves or to the State. It shouldn't empower those forces hostile to us. Still, if there is technology to develop, resources to acquire, or markets to penetrate, it is our duty to ourselves and to the State to do all we can.

There are two types of combat pilot, Ma'am. One of those flies a ridiculously overspecced gilded loot blimp of the sort that causes PTSD and rage when lost. The other sort truly could not care less for the scraps of the warships we fly.
If you can make any sort of living scraping up the pieces left behind when my 3 million isk Kestrel pops, then be my guest. There are so many of you willing to service my need to fit out a replacement (which I do in batches of five to ten, usually) that I doubt you have the power to economically gouge me.

@Makoto Priano
However much I'd love to go back and turn his freighter into so much space debris, it'd be dishonest to say Tukoss was directly responsible for the destruction of Ishukone vessels. Ishukone vessels intercepted and attempted to blockade a vastly superior force, after repeated and clear warnings that aggression would be responded to in kind. They were given (repeatedly) the option of leaving peacefully.
In an act of what can only be described as either suicide or incredible stupidity, they fired upon the freighter while countless weapons were locked on and ready to end them within seconds. What followed should not require any in-detail explanation.
The Ishukone vessels that went down that day were commanded by what I can only assume is either Diana Kim levels of suicidal zealots or monumentally stupid people with no grasp on tactical situations. The destruction could have been avoided entirely and Hilen Tukoss, to his credit, never even mentioned destroying those vessels in his communication with the escort fleet.
As I was the one responding to his calls for escort assistance in the Electus Matari comms channel and subsequently arranged for aid from Altaen, the finest fleet commander in EM (at the time, obviously) and various other pilots, I'll take responsibility for the unfortunately successful escort of Tukoss and the destruction of the hostiles along the way.
The approval of certain Republic entities at the time made this seem like a worthy cause to pursue, but it quickly became apparent that I had made the second greatest mistake of my capsuleer career. Nonetheless, I did what I considered to be right knowing what I did at the time and the responsibility remains, regrets or not.
I'll kill him on sight and Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive won't find me standing in the way should they decide to do something similar, but it should be for the crimes he did commit, not for those simply laid at his feet. |

Not a bad advice under current circumstances. Hilen Tikoss is involved in wormhole research, and his current welcome message does mention he never stopped researching into this field despite his absence. After 3 years, one wonders what could come out of such lengthy study.

I've recently been digging through the SDE looking at celestial data. So when I saw the second part of the celestial ID sequence, I knew what to look for.
Briefly, numbers beginning in 1 are region IDs, 2s are constellation IDs, 3s are system IDs, and 4s are individual celestial IDs, such as stars, moons, planets, etc.
40216465 is the celestial ID code for the Eram system's star, a class K6 main sequence star.
Why he would want people to drop the stuff off at the star itself is a mystery to me. But at this point, it seems moot. Parts have been delivered.

This is indeed deeply worrying... And would explain why the DED don't want us to assist, as the Jove most likely see this as an interference in their work, assuming this is trying to do what I believe it's trying to do. However horrible, it may be the way forward.
As for cooperating... Most people know what I'm going to say. |

I would suggest you look into the event which caused these fragments to be spread across the cluster. There is a reason why this would be useful to the Arek'Jaalan project or others involved in wormhole research.
You're looking at this from the wrong perspective.
Historical database entry follows:
Quote:Misu Baniya was the liaison for Extra-Racial Affairs with Jovian Directorate's Ministry of Information. In May YC106 the Jovian Directorate announced in a rare initiative that the ambassador, would be a diplomatic liaison with the four major empires and other factions, the Jove amazed New Eden by declaring that their representative would visit all the faction leaders in the space of one hour. With the method for achieving this miracle discovered to be a matter transmission device, amazement turned to horror when the device malfunctioned, scattering the Jovian ambassador across the cluster in tens of thousands of pieces.
In the aftermath, Tunai Moran, Jovian Ambassador to the CONCORD Assembly, revealed that Misu Baniya's brainscan had not been completed before his disintegration, resulting in a faulty clone activation. The four empires swiftly offered to assist the Jovian Directorate when it was made clear that the Jove possessed the means to reconstruct Misu Baniya if sufficient fragments of his body could be recovered. It was soon discovered that tiny pieces of Baniya had appeared on stations across the New Eden cluster and the empires began to buy the Jovian body parts on the market.
In June the Jovian Directorate was able to announce the successful molecular reconstruction of Misu Baniya and a conventional diplomatic tour by the restored Jovian ambassador. The only likely reasons for these body parts to be acquired:
-Reconstructing the neural scan of Misu Baniya. -Study of the matter transmission device and any residual signatures present within Misu Baniya's remains. -Reconstructing the neural scan of Misu Baniya in order to gain any insight into the matter transmission device as well as studying any residual signatures present in the remains.
Likely benefits of this type of research: Accessing SOCT training packages present within Misu Baniya's neural scan regarding the matter transmission device, and determining how matter transmission processes could be further applied in other fields of research.
I would point to my own theory regarding the "Bright Star" as possible evidence of this research having significant importance to the Cluster as a whole. |

I agree with this, there's some kind of correlation between Caroline's Anomaly, and the strange messages, as listed in the thread.
But what that correlation is, has yet to be uncovered, although everything's being monitored closely by my team and I. |

The same SoE agent who, every time I talk to her, acts like my mere presence is making her day, won't tell me where Hilen Tukoss might be.
Yeah I know why not get a date but... nuns...
Either Hilen Tukoss is indeed way out beyond even the reach of SoE (and that's considerable) or there's a cover-up afoot.
