  5. Geology & Surface Organics
The Geology & Surface Organics department’s primary focus is to catalogue lifeforms and plantlife keeping an open mind to how and where they develop and to record and study geological formations found naturally on other worlds. By careful measurement and study we advance further in understanding our natural universe.

These structures are created by colonies of micro-organisms and are found in several sectors. including Sanguineous Rim and The Abyss, mostly around the outer edge of the galaxy (see in-game Codex for locations). There appears to be only a single classification of crystalline shards. They spawns the usual range of raw materials, though they seem…

UA and Barnacle Firefly Interaction

person Canonn Research
turned_in_not , ,
Unknown Artefacts and Barnacles have small firefly looking whisps of blue/green lights flying around them. What these fireflies actually are, have yet to be discovered and there are many theories about their origin and usefulness. However the link between the two objects to have a common starting point is a most common theory only boosted by the recent discovery of the large Unknown Structures and the confirmed reports of Thargoids.

Guardians Trees (Brain Trees)

person Starbeaver
Guardians Trees or Brain Trees Mainly found in Ejecta Craters around Guardians Ruins areas. They are found on any type of world as long as the world has some form of Volcanism. Ejecta Craters can be recognised from orbital cruise. You usually see lines coming off of the crater, though sometimes these can be hard…

Cmdr Panpiper – A Brief History of Brain Trees

person Canonn Research
turned_in_not ,
Cmdr Panpiper (known amongst Canonneers as “the Barnacle Whisperer”) presents this fascinating insight into these intriguing life-forms commonly referred to as Brain Trees. They can be found on rocky, rocky/ice and ice worlds with ejecta craters also exhibiting volcanism (any type) with a temperature range of 200k to 470k. These always appear in craters near guardian ruins.…

Fumeroles A fumarole is typically an opening in a planet’s crust allowing gases and dissolved minerals from deep below the surface to be ejected into the surroundings or deposited around the sides of the openings of the fumarole structures. Fumaroles appear in chaotic or patchy clusters as the placement of these is determined ultimately by…
