*Look at the system scanner and determine if there are any Cosmic Anomalies to be found (Before Odyeesy expansion you had to drop probes and scan before you could determine if a system had any Cosmic Anomalies in it)
*Look at the system scanner and determine if there are any Cosmic Signatures to be found (Before Odyeesy expansion you had to drop probes and scan before you could determine if a system had any Cosmic Signatures in it)


*Drop your probes. Scan, and use the filter to limit your results to what you want to find.

*Once you get it down to one result, close probes in, bring them to the same plane as the result, drop scan radius, and re-scan.

*Repeat the process of dropping range, positioning arrows on the result circle, and rescanning until you get your result.  If you hit the minimum probe range and still can't get 100%, try repositioning your probes more closely to the Anomaly (holding ALT and sliding the probes closer to the target works wonders).  There are some sites that you may not be able to probe -- to get them, try to increase your "probe scan strength". You can use Sisters launcher & probes, rig your ship, buy hardwired scanning implants, and/or train higher levels of the relevant skills.
