Greetings IGS...Now as a humble mercenary i will come out and say that i am not a man that works in this field of examining this sort of stuff but today i had some strange urge to examine One of the Drifter's towers in the system of Laah
This information seems obvious by now but this Structure has been heavily damaged by a unknown source
Whatever caused this damage has left massive openings in the structure..
to me this proves that theses elusive structures are not at all impenetrable as we thought...that there is a way to destroy them, we just need to find out what...Also this leads me to believe that it may be possible to find a way to get inside the structures
A bonus....you can't see in this picture..as its a picture..but the debris seems to pulsate with a faint glow...I'm not sure what this means...Hopefully by posting this thread we can strike up a conversation about this..
Also can anyone else confirm if any other structures are like this?

Greetings Mr. Yaken,
Several contributors to Arek'jaalan did explore and map many of those 'Jove Observatories' today in a new endeavour. As far as I understood, all were damaged. I myself visited about 20 of them and I can safely say, they all had plainly visible hull damage with faint blue electric static inside. Your first picture is really unsettling, though. Do you have another perspective or zoom level? I don't think I saw this heavy kind of damage. But the perspective may be misleading.
There is a report coming up which will almost certainly adress the structure damage as well.
Respectfully,
H. Haritimado

Not currently...But those pictures were taken at about 12km from the tower...i am also currently unable to get another picture but i can however get one in the future...

From what we have seen, the Circadian Seekers have been cutting into the structures, and then harvesting something from inside using something very similar to a mining laser, with individual cutting and tractor beam components. |

If this is true then i would suggest looking into researching a new tool capable of replicating the power that the seekers are using to cut into the structure.

I gotten a picture as close as i possibly can to the tower...my frigate could enter that gap in the rubble but i fear the idea of traveling to deep into the rabbit hole...

Something else to note.
Pilot 'Darkezero' suggested that perhaps the 'Antikythera Elements' we have been finding on the wrecks of the Circadians are NOT in fact part of the drones themselves, but something they are harvesting from the Jovian Observatories.
Considering how their appearance coincided with the sleepers tearing open the observatories, I think this is the most logical conclusion we have at the moment. |

What I find most unsettling (beside the fact the Jove set up spy towers in our space for who knows how long collection God knows how much Intel) the drifters have clearly accessed whatever is there.
They must be destroyed. |

Yeah. That Jove "Observation" thing doesn't sit well with me either.
I hypothesize that those structures have been there a long time. It takes time to build towers and stations (and how were they anchored?) and given how widespread they are, I have to believe that someone would have noticed a large-scale Jovian construction project.
Say the Drifters sent their robot Seekers to find them. Which they did. The Seekers start gathering Intel and as we get more aggressive towards them, the Drifters come by to offer protection. First they figure out how to uncloack the structures, now they've gotten into the hulls and are salvaging.
(All the while, not a peep from the Jove.)
So what happens when the Drifters finish their salvage op? Do they start coming after us for all our Jovian-based tech? Do they ignore us and go back where they came from? Do they take over Jove space, such as it is? Do they go to Jita and open up a market?
Who else has been collecting Jove stuff? Why?

As of yet we have no intelligence on the purpose of the Joves, the Drifters, or the Sleepers. Also, are Drifter Battleships not the ones guarding the structures? Perhaps instead of listening towers they store Corpses there, or communicate with some sort of AI entity controlling the Drifters. It is also possibly they may be infiltrating the Empires threw using the organic material to cover themselves, or rebuild there bodies. |

As i said before though, Someone should consider getting a task force to find a way in the Stations, with all theses new massive holes in them it should be possible to find a way to send a small squad deeper into the structure to find out what exactly is in the place..
Perhaps we can find scraps of what they were after...

I wonder if these structures are 'one per constellation', or maybe they were emplaced in or near every system that supported a civilization. They've clearly been around for a while, and since we didn't see them get put up, it would make a bit of sense to suggest that these structures were observatories to watch the 'younger' races. |

Either that, or they were built inside a cloak field... or the Jove can warp massive objects under cloak.

Get your tinfoil ready
I have thought about how these things ended up in our space also. My thoughts may be.... A little out there but hear me out. With all we know about using jump portals and bridges, and the little we know aboit the Sansha and Drifter wormholes do you think it is possible these structures were pre-built elsewhere? This is only my opinion but don't these structures almost look like ships pointing downward? Since they have started appearing I have where, and possible when, they came from.

Pilot Raholan, the phrase "when they came from" unsettles me in ways I cannot begin to describe, suggesting all sorts of unpleasant possible explanations.
I do not believe these are "one per constellation". I was living in Ishomilken when they first appeared and there were at least two in the Citadel. |
