	Description	Anomaly ID
	Although [Root.GetName] appears totally desolate and devoid of life, our scanners have picked up an encrypted signal emanating from it.
	A tattered old observation post circles [big_rip_planet.GetName] but there are no signs of intelligent life on its surface. Closer investigation may give us the answer to why.
	A small space station of some kind has been built in a stable orbit around this asteroid. It appears deserted.
	Some kind of unknown structures are floating in this gas giant's upper atmosphere. They appear to be using aerostatic lift to remain buoyant.



	An ancient orbital shipyard drifts in silence above this world. It has suffered significant battle damage, and entire sections of the facility are missing.


	This asteroid recently suffered an impact from another body within the asteroid belt, which resulted in a slightly changed orbit and a massive crater on the surface.
	A class-12 asteroid orbits this [Root.GetPlanetMoon]. The small planetoid's orbit appears far too stable for its presence to be a natural occurrence.
	Sensor echoes have indicated the presence of some kind of unidentified object deep within the atmosphere of this gas giant.
	Massive storms are visible in the upper atmosphere of this gas giant. It might be worth the effort to study them in more detail.
	While [Planet.GetName] appears to be a typical volcanic wasteland, the oxygen content is strangely high. Something unusual must be producing that oxygen.
	After a survey of [From.Planet.GetName], a strange creature was discovered. Despite having only been among us for a short time, it has already instilled a deep desire to nurture and protect it. Further study is advised.
	A small cargo pod has been left to drift in space above this gas giant. It has been captured by the planet's gravity well, and will eventually be pulled into its atmosphere.

	The surface of this asteroid is littered with metallic debris. Most of it appears to originate from starships of many different designs.
	A vessel of some kind has crashed into the surface of this asteroid. Wreckage from the craft can still be found within the impact crater.
	A scarlet planet was surveyed in the [From.GetStarName] system. The intensity of the color is remarkable. We should investigate.
	This planet appears to have large pools of free-flowing lava on its surface. These are worth investigating, in case they present opportunities for resource harvesting.
	A defective platform of alien design is drifting aimlessly around a star. Perhaps closer study could reveal its purpose.
	A small docking hatch leading to the interior of this asteroid is visible at the rim of a small crater on its surface. The hatch was likely concealed once, but it has since been exposed by micrometeorite impacts.

	Strong energy emissions of an unknown origin make this asteroid stand out from the rest of its peers in this crowded asteroid field.
	Sensors have picked up a strange object drifting through the asteroid field. Its origin is unknown, but its course is steady, suggesting it can be intercepted and examined.
	The sensor profile of a mid-sized vessel was briefly detected inside the upper atmosphere of this gas giant.
	We are picking up what may be a faint transmission coming from somewhere deep inside the atmosphere of this gas giant. Could someone - or something - be trying to communicate?

	Startling images of [from.GetName] show a burning, molten world interrupted by a startlingly bright, continent-sized swathe of green. This exceptional sight suggests something highly unusual on the surface.

	The planet at these coordinates is supposed to hide a cache of sleepers and technology. We should investigate thoroughly.
	The first survey of [Planet.GetName] revealed a strange storm-like shape in the planet's main lava ocean. This phenomenon is highly unusual, and bears investigating.
	We are picking up life signs coming from somewhere within the interior of this asteroid. This definitely warrants a closer investigation.
	Life signs have been detected coming from inside the atmosphere of this gas giant. Could it indicate the presence of some kind of biosphere?
	Despite the toxic content and high pressure of this [Root.GetPlanetMoon]'s atmosphere, strong life signs have been detected coming from its surface.
	At first glance this [Root.GetPlanetMoon] does not seem capable of supporting living beings, but nevertheless we have detected life signs emanating from somewhere beneath its frozen surface.
	We have detected life signs coming from somewhere beneath the barren and lifeless surface of this [Root.GetPlanetMoon]. What manner of organism could possibly live there?

	A colossal impact crater hints that something big collided with the surface of this [Root.GetPlanetMoon] once.
	Our scientists have detected regular radiowave spikes from a single point on [Planet.GetName]. They appear to coincide with the time at which the source of the signal crosses from night into day.
	This world has been thoroughly ravaged in a nuclear war.

	A routine scan of [Planet.GetName] noted unusually strong chemical fluctuations in the atmosphere. A closer survey may explain what is happening here.
	A large impact crater has been discovered that does not seem to be a natural occurrence.

	One of the small moonlets orbiting this gas giant has been identified as a promising mining site. A more thorough survey will have to be conducted to determine whether a mining operation would be feasible or not.
	[Root.GetName] exhibits signs of once having been home to an ancient civilization.
	A large amount of ship debris can be found in orbit around this [Root.GetPlanetMoon], possibly the remnants of some kind of massive fleet action.
	This toxic and lifeless world appears to have once been inhabited by a moderately advanced pre-space civilization. The ruins of their cities are still strewn across the surface.
	The planet at these coordinates is supposed to hide a cache of sleepers and technology. We should investigate thoroughly.
	An abandoned ship has been left to drift aimlessly above this [Root.GetPlanetMoon]. The massive sails protruding from its hull suggest that it relied on solar power to function.
	There is a significant amount of debris in orbit around this gas giant. Most of it appears to come from long lost starships of various configurations.


	We have detected intermittent energy spikes coming from the planet. These readings indicate something powerful, and far beyond the capabilities of the pre-sapient inhabitants we've observed.
	Initial scans reveal a series of towering, luminescent structures rising from an otherwise unremarkable landscape. Their origin and purpose remain unclear, but their spectral glow suggests something more than a natural phenomenon.
	Unexpected emissions are coming from the underground caves on [From.GetName]. Could these be a signal of some sort?
	Efforts to map the surface of this [Root.GetPlanetMoon] have identified a strange mountain range in the southern hemisphere. It does not appear to have formed naturally.
	We are receiving a weak signal from the surface of this [Root.GetPlanetMoon]. The source appears to be some kind of tracking beacon.
	There is significant scarring on the surface of this world in a pattern that cannot be natural. From orbit, the massive rifts look almost like writing.
	Strange low-temperature anomalies were detected in the regolith of [Planet.GetName], suggesting that some process or object may be cooling parts of the surface. A drilling expedition would reveal more.
	A small and otherwise insignificant moon orbiting this gas giant appears to be on a trajectory that will soon result in a collision with its primary.
	Scans performed by the [fleet.GetName] indicate the presence of a derelict space station in the [From.GetStarName] System. It looks like it was deposited there by a passing cosmic storm. Life signs return negative, and there are no power signals of any kind. Two massive telescopes protrude from opposite sides of the station. These optical instruments appear advanced, and far too large relative to the station's size. The technology and architecture are not yet familiar to us. We could attempt to reactivate the telescopes, as this could yield some interesting insights.
	A lone escape pod was spotted during a recent survey. Strangely, the pod hailed us using a data signature matching that of our own. The pod seems to have been displaced by a recent cosmic storm that passed through the system. Investigation is recommended.
	A small rectangular object on the surface of this [Root.GetPlanetMoon] is deflecting all scanning beams like a mirror. Our sensors are unable to determine its material composition.

	The material composition of this asteroid differs significantly from its neighbors. It likely has a different origin than the other bodies of this asteroid belt, and should be investigated more closely.
	We briefly detected some unusual energy readings emanating from this [Root.GetPlanetMoon]. It might have been a glitch in our systems, or it could be a sign of something more.

	The planet at these coordinates is supposed to hide a cache of sleepers and technology. We should investigate thoroughly.
	By chance, we stumbled upon a faint alien signal during the survey of this [Root.GetPlanetMoon]. The source appears to be a small object in orbit. The signal contains no message - could it be a distress transponder?
