Based on the behavior described above, I warped to 100km off the unidentified structure in Eystur. Three Circadian Seekers were present. I was roughly 80km from the Seekers. They were initially indifferent to my presence.
I began to approach the structure. My separation from the Seekers increased to roughly 100km. Despite the fact I was increasing my distance from them, the Seekers became aggressive. Two volleys destroyed my reaper. The Seekers did not attack my pod.
I returned to a station in the system. An insurance company generously provided me a replacement reaper. I warped directly to the beacon. The Seekers did not attack, and eventually departed. When the Seekers returned, I began to approach the unidentified structure. Initially 124km distant, when I crossed the 80km mark, the Seekers destroyed my ship.
They did not attack the pod, and eventually departed.
After receiving another replacement reaper, I returned to the site and waited.
At 0:02, three cruisers arrived. I began to orbit the beacon at 10km. At 0:14, they departed without attacking. At 0:20 - returned. At 0:26 - departed. At 0:32 - returned. At 0:38, I followed them to the Lustrevik gate. I warped to 100km from the gate, was immediately attacked and destroyed.
I repeated the exercise of waiting for them to leave the unidentified structure, and followed to the Olbra gate. I warped to 10km from the gate, and was not attacked.
I am more confident in the importance of 6. It may be significant that there are also 6 arm assemblies on the cruisers. I drift. I do not manipulate base six number sequences. Perhaps they possess unusual properties. Perhaps there are six gods in the Seeker pantheon.
Every Circadian cycle reinforces the number 6. That can be interpreted as a coincidence or a message.

I can confirm the recent unprovoked, aggressive behavior of the Circadian Seekers.
I was watching a live feed from a CalNav capsuleer pilot. He warped to one of the structures in a Navy Scorpion. Seekers were present and proceeded to attack him. I had been observing his feed since he arrived in system, and he did not aggress any Seekers in the system.

It was an Unknown Structure. And it was a Circadian Seeker. Identified from the HUD tag.
Also, I was speaking with Maria Daphiti last night, and while in combat with a Republic pilot, a Circadian Seeker arrived in the complex they were in and engaged the Republic pilot. She shared with me the CONCORD kill log entry corroborating this. To emphasize this point. The combat was taking place inside the deadspace pocket of the plex.

If you trespass against a structure protected by the Seekers or Drifters, they will hunt you down - certainly within a system, and possibly into another system where they also have a presence. Seeker or Drifter vessels do not have to be present at the time of the trespass for hostility to attach. Changing ships, or disengaging and reengaging with your ship interface, will not clear the hostility. The passage of time might. My experiments have shown that so far, up to three ships may be destroyed after a transgression before the hostility dissipates.
I believe it was Feu who tested whether trespassing with drones would trigger an attack. It does. He warped to the system star as soon as he drones were attacked. The Seekers tracked him there immediately and destroyed his ship. Warping away from Seekers does nothing to protect you.
If the pilot inside the complex had warped to an unidentified structure or wormhole, perhaps looking for targets, and approached within roughly 80 or 25 km respectively, he or she may have triggered an attack without realizing it.
Unidentified structures and wormholes should only be approached with the understanding that any ship being flown or about to be flown may become the target of repeated attacks. |

Hello,
I am not entirely sure how relevant this information I found out last night while exploring is, but I will post it here regardless for anyone to analyze. Like I said, I was exploring some wormholes around Providence when I entered one in SI-I89. I found myself in the J121649 and upon further scanning, It revealed about 2-3 more wormholes (at least those are the ones I scanned, as I did not scan every cosmic signature). I picked one and jumped through. Luckily, I landed in a huge wormhole system, talking about some pretty hefty ~90 AU warp distances. After a few seconds, two things (apart from the huge system) caught my attention. The ID, or name, of the solar system and a beacon called "Epicenter". I tried to find out some information about the wormhole I was in, but all was very inconclusive. The system was J000313. So, a recap of the route was SI-I89 -> J121649 -> J000313. The wormhole that led to the last system was a type A009.
I warped to the 'Epicenter' beacon, a few ~60ish AU from where I was holding position. Upon landing, I noticed this was nothing like I had seen before and quickly found out some debris possibly connected to the Sleeper drones. This anomaly seemed repeated, such that it had sort of similar debris patterns spaced within a few hundred kilometers. The only 3 ships found at the site were defenders (drones) and seemed to wander around as a group quite slowly. I did not find out if they aggressed, so I cannot confirm their threat level, only that from past encounters they will shoot on sight. Pictures of all the data can be found linked with the items in the list. This is a list of all I found at this site, at the time of my stay:
- 1x Awakened Defender || Look At
- 2x Emergent Defender || Look At
- J000313 - Star || Attributes
- ~2x Sleeper Enclave || Look At
- 3x Sleeper Preservation Conduit || Look At
- 3x Sleeper Thermoelectric Converter || Look At
- Talocan Static Gates || Look At
- 3x Talocan Disruption Tower || Look At
- 2x Talocan Embarkment Destroyer || Look At
- 3x Talocan Extraction Silo || Look At
- 2x Talocan Polestar
- 2x Talocan Reactor Spire || Look At
Hope this helps in some way, though it was pretty amazing actually being there!
Regards, Ryouji |

New seeker behaviour. Footage 1 Footage 2
They seem to be trying to cut into the hull. They alternate a yellow beam and a blue beam. Nothing like their "scan beams" we have witnessed until now.

Yeah, this can't be good.
In your captures, there's a sign of damage, basically a hull rupture. Is this something new, or have seen such damage previously?

The damage is new.
I was trying to verify the reports on them picking up corpses when I actually saw them doing this. Seems the structure contains something of value to them and they are trying to extract it. Given their aggression on anyone who approaches, they also probably dont wanna share.
Also, I did verify the original issue, they do pick up corpses afterall. They even stay behind from the rest of the group to do so.

So now we have them getting corpses and opening holes (and perhaps stealing something) from the Jove Observatories?
Did anyone kill any of them after they stole things to see if they leave a wreck with something? |

It is a tight fit. For the tower in Eystur, there is an intense, small, spherical light source inside two of the "excavated" chambers. It is not clear if these are fires resulting from the remodeling choices, or eggs of burning birds that will spread their wings and usher in an age of perpetual darkness... burning darkness.
Possibly, they are holes leading deeper into the tower. If that is the case, something deeper into the interior of the tower is on fire. |

Jaret, are you suggesting that the Antikythera Element is what they are harvesting from the observatories? It makes sense since we only saw it on them after they cut the structures' hull open.
It is imperative to study this new find extensively, I do not think I need to point out its potential importance to any of you, at this point.

So... they've been cutting down the Jove Observatories and collecting components? This is fascinating. I've heard stories about Jovian space, some of the oldest stories of New Eden of which I am aware. So this means, we're seeing pieces of the oldest technology? Wow... and to think.. every day we wonder about how we continue in the direction we're going. We ponder how we're moving forward.
We never really think about moving back...
I wonder... if one day, we may see the broken worlds of our ancestors.
Or maybe they won't be broken at all.

Regarding interactions between Nation and Drifter forces...
After dodging the suggestion of an assassination attempt by His Excellency the Yan Jungian assassin, I observed Circadian Seekers at the JO in Colelie for several hours. Nation forces never visited the tower during that time.
I then warped to an asteroid field. My velator was almost immediately vaporized by Nation forces. I hung out in a pod for several hours. By this time, His Excellency was experiencing difficulty sustaining his connection to the Yan Jungian routers.
Nation forces cycled in and out of the asteroid field.
For one of their own patrol cycles, the Circadians joined me, a couple of little Nation bugs, a mid-sized Nation bug, and a big Nation bug in the asteroid field.
The Circadians scanned the asteroids. I did not see them scan any of the Nation vessels, though they were right on top of one another. Although Nation forces delighted in the destruction of my velator, they did not fire on the Circadians.
When the Circadians finished with the asteroids, they warped off.
Tangent:
It appears that if, when you warp away from JO, if your exit path passes near the tower, you will be "flagged" as having trespassed. The next time Circadians encounter you, they will open fire. They do not have to have been present when the "trespass" occurred. This may explain some of the reports of "unprovoked" aggression by Circadians. It is far from intuitive that a trespass has occurred. In my case, it took two ship pops before the bad juju was cleared.
If your warp out path would take you within 80km of the tower, do not do that. Warp to another object, and then proceed along your way. |

I've been trying to figure out what this Antikythera Element is, and I am perplexed. it is definitely Jovian by the looks of things, and definitely was broken off of something, but what it is I can't say. It reminds me of a power supply somehow with the green glow...if these come from those Jovian towers, why aren't they lit up? Our stations have windows, and they seem to be windowless.
Anyway, I have a few tens of these things by now, and disassembling one has proven to be fruitless so far. They seem to be made of a hard, indestructible alloy of some type. I even tried to irradiate one by buying a shuttle and putting it inside of the warp core assembly for a few hours. That either succeeded or failed depending on how you look at it, as while that didn't answer any questions I had, I did have a reaction. The shuttle turned into a mound of molten metal, sooooo I suppose we know now it doesn't react well to warp cores.
Another thing, these Drifters might not be Jovian after all...or perhaps Jovians that somehow traveled back in time from thousands of years in the future. if you look at the Jovian "Eidolon" battleships, they have engines, since you can see their exhaust gases...these "Jovians" do not have engines like we know then, rather they seem to have some sort of a time-space drive - they DON'T use traditional propulsion, they actually push against the fabric of space itself - hence the rippling effect associated with them.

I am afraid my own studies into this matter are ongoing but slow, I am preparing a perch and fitting my best Cloaking ship for a long vigil.
I have written this elsewhere but it maybe better suited here.
On Antikythera and the Antikythera Mechanism.
The best current translations of "Antikythera" I can give is from the ancient languages and would be either "opposite the island of love" or "the island of hate". It originates from the word "Kythera" being the mythical Island of the Goddess of Love.
Perhaps it was aptly named, only time shall tell.
The Antikythera Mechanism requires more research and I am open to suggestions from others of what function it may have.
Whilst some say that these events can be linked directly into the prophesies in the Amarr Scriptures, I for one shall not be preaching about the End of Days and Apocalypse just yet.
Whilst these revelations of the Drifters and Seekers do not bode well for us, I am not worried, we are Capsuleers, we shall overcome.
As always I shall keep watch and keep you all informed.
With faith,
Padre Aldan of Providence. |

Two things.
1. While examining the damage to a JO, I noted that the wreckage appears to be largely intact portions of hull materials that have burst outwards, indicating a possible internal failure or explosion as the source. So perhaps the Drifters and Seekers are not the ones that actually damaged the observatories. But are simply happy to take advantage of it.
2. Antikythera Element: My initial resarch into phoneme matching the word Antikythera reveals it to be Greek, and ancient Earth language. This led me into some truly ancient and esoteric historical files on our joint history. We are all from Earth as you should know.
This research into ancient Earth revealed that there was once an island named Kythera, which was a part of the afore-mentioned Greek nation, as well as another opposite of it named Antikythera. Submerged in a primitive sailing ship wreck near the latter an ancient archaeologist found a ruined and wrecked object that he surmised was the rusted remains of some sort of astronomical time telling device. It could relatively accurately (for that truly ancient time) predict the movement of local celestial bodies such as the sun, moon, known planets, and even eclipses. They named this device the Antikythera Mechanism.
So I'm wondering if this thing is some sort of celestial time telling device, or a least a piece of one.

While performing reconnassaince of a Jove observatory in Minmatar space earlier today, I came across a number of wrecked vessels surrounding the warp-in beacon - at least three of them Drifter battleship wrecks.
I was under the impression these did not appear after a Drifter ship was destroyed - presumably due to some form of self-destruct. Please, correct me if I am wrong here.
Approaching them earned me the ire of a number of Circadian Seekers nearby. An attampt at salvaging one wreck produced no result; I was forced to leave, then, taking damage from the Seekers.
Unfortunately, I have no images available at this time - I will try to find them in my sensor logs -but it would seem some rather powerful - or possibly, a rather dedicated fleet - engaged and destroyed at least three Drifter battleships. I leave it to sharper minds than my own to interpret this data. |

While performing my routine observations of the local Jovian Observatories I happened to come across a pair of Drifters accompanied by a Circadian Seeker. They initially were at some distance from the structure before moving into closer proximity. Following at a distance in a cloaked vessel, I began to fine tune the visual feed of my ship as they suddenly interacted with the Observatory. Here are some of the images I captured:
Image 1 Image 2 Image 3 Image 4 Image 5
While these images are concentrated on the Drifters the lone Seeker was located farther up the Observatory, engaging in the same manner. |

I would like to add that I have personally spotted several Circadian Sleepers in different locations in the Systems. For example, I spotted one when I was mining. It stayed for about 10 minutes before pretty much disappearing. I also spotted one in a different system about 50km from a Station.
Has anyone else seen this behavior? |
