Jove Observatory

Jove Observatories can be found scattered around New Eden. The structures appear as warpable beacons on the overview.

Drifter Observatory in space

Systems that have Jove Observatory in them can occasionally spawn unidentified wormholes that lead to Drifter systems.

History

These structures first appeared in late 2014 (YC116) when their cloaks started to malfunction, possibly due to Drifter activity. In early 2015 (YC117) the structure cloaks failed and the structures were fully revealed.

Gleaned information

The observatories can be interacted with by using Entosis Link on them. After each entosis cycle a Gleaned Information item is added to ship inventory. This item contains fragments of observation logs from the time when the structure was still operational.

Entosising observatories is not completely safe activity. The entosis link will prevent the ship from warping away for the duration of the cycle (5 minutes for t1, 2 minutes for t2). The observatory may seem quiet but Autothysian Lancers check on it regularly. If you are unlucky a wandering Drifter cruiser or Drifter battleship may also come. It is believed that the Drifter cruisers and battleships are more common when the system has active unidentified wormhole in it.

There are total of 12 log items that can be received from the observatories. The contents of these fragments relate to various events in history of New Eden which the Jove had observed.
