Introduction:
Approved by the Arek'Jaalan research collective, the Heliograph project will begin with the start of the stellar year YC118. It will focus on developing a long-range transmitter capable of initiating communication with the Vigilant Tyrannos.
Goals:
To construct a transmitter and a listening post structure and open a communications channel with the Vigilant Tyrannos, who - to this date - remain an unknown factor in the cluster politics.
Methodology:
Due to its complexity, the Heliograph will require three phases. In the first, research material will be compiled and analyzed to ensure maximum probable compliance of the transmitter with both protocols and hardware utilized by the Vigilant Tyrannos. A full list of required materials: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cd-KByDcxleHeRL8zdH9MhW8kR8FICJvBwzx4bCrqVQ/edit#gid=0 is located under this hyperlink.
Once this data is collected and analyzed, construction of the Heliograph itself will begin. Since it may involve rare materials, depending on both scarcity and quantity required, another harvesting operation may be required.
The third phase of the project will commence once the Heliograph has been built. It will be transported from its berth in the Nein system, Ergruk constellation and moved to a new location. A message will be recorded in multiple languages, both new and old - requesting diplomatic contact from those who receive it. Following this, the transmitter will be powered up and a watch around it estabilished. Since New Eden cannot be considered a safe place, an escort detachment may be required for this phase.
Since the project is still in its first phase, the method of listening for the return transmission has not been determined yet.
Location:
The project base is currently located in the Nein system, in the Impro Factory. This facility will be used as a berth for the Heliograph itself.
Currently, all material processing is handled by Viriel. Another contact by the name Thomas en Gravonere will be available shortly. Materials can be transferred via the contract system or a direct exchange.
This thread will be updated with reports of each phase. Since Arek'Jaalan is a public organization, anyone is free to come to our aid in this endaevour - and any sort of help would be much appreciated.
We are fully aware that anything related to the Vigilant Tyrannos brings to mind violence. Arek'Jaalan will remain neutral in the Drifter-Amarr conflict, and the Heliograph will be used only as a communication device.

Oh yes, maybe, perhaps - but, Arek'Jaalan is neither Amarr nor Caldari. We are not at war with the Vigilant Tyrannos (and last I recall, neither was the State. Unless something changed). You can take your fanatism elsewhere, Kimmie, it will not do you any good here.
In fact, some of us believe that the weaponization of Sleeper technology - which this organization has opposed in the past - led to the current conflict. The reasons behind it are nothing but speculation though, hence the plans of communication.

Eh, you know what they say - better late than never. Especially now that things have quieted down, and a few punches have been thrown from both sides.
I don't rate our chances of success as certain, but sod the odds - we're going to do it anyway.
We have received several batches of material that are currently being transported to our site and are very grateful. Multiple safety measures have been enacted to ensure the security of the Heliograph, and we will do our best to prevent it from being used as a weapon - by either side.

Ah, Kimmie - you do well pointing out mistakes in my thinking. You see, I do have a tendency to veil my instructions too thinly for others to understand.
Let me rephrase my previous answer - go play a soldier somewhere else, dear. This is not your war. This is not a war at all. We do not represent the State, or the Empire.
And, well - while I put my trust in the Republic and its ability to hold the field - as tarnished as this reputation may be in this day and age - certain precautions have been taken to ensure the security of this project. Hopefully, we will be able to mitigate the attention received.

Should one not trust Viriel, our additional contact - Thomas - is now in position and available.

Arek'Jaalan has seen various oddballs and outcasts of society, he's done a good job so far helping out. There's no habit of throwing help out the window here.

Accepting help that people can usually provide.
You don't see us running around and conscripting people as data analysts. Those who wish to help in that regard, usually find us on their own.

Thank you. We'll keep progress updates posted. A lot of equipment is arriving right now - phase one will be up and running in no time at this rate.
Of course, a full list of contributors - unless some wish to remain anonymous, in this case I'd appreciate that information - will be published for credit.

The inclusion of Takmahl mostly came from people dropping by with various amounts of Takmahl stuff. The biggest focus of this operation is on Sleeper data, then on Talocan.
As Talocan wreckage is often found among Sleeper within Anoikis, it's possible that they co-existed or one discovered the ruins of the other. If that's the case, documents from one may contain references to the other - and we may be able to fill in the blanks.
There are a few leads and theories as to how the communication protocol works - but, I can't really step up and say "this is how it works" at this point. Still need to commit some time to analysis. As it is an Arek'Jaalan venture, yep - we will publish reports from each phase.
And Kimmie, your... input is appreciated, but I think at this point the situation has escalated beyond just brutish, aggressive behavior. You should focus your effort on the Federation and Sansha you hate so much, wrap up the other two before you open up a third front.

Well, it's worth keeping in mind that the current material list involves materials centered around research - not construction itself.
As for a capsuleer integration - in theory, including such subsystem would imply the need for one of us to control it. This is a course of action I'd very much like to avoid and construct a system that is fully automated. The need to control has always sparked conflicts about who gets to do it. Conflict is what this project needs the least.

That, I've got to say, is a lot of Kimmie ranting. Wow.
We have reached, and in some cases exceeded our most vital requirements - the Sleeper components and research materiel. The analysis has commenced yesterday, focusing at first on the base, physical structure of Sleeper communication devices. We will move on to the higher layers as the project continues.
It was one hell of a surprise to find that we got enough datacores and database materials to start a big research facility. The sheer amount of hardware will hopefully accelerate our progress through the more difficult sections of this research.
Thanks to several supporters, we have sufficient hardware to commence construction of the base components - and significantly lower the cost of the Heliograph installation itself.
