Its been an interesting week in the Galaxy. First commander OCTO discovered the first "Barnacles" Alien growths connected to the Alien Artefacts and possibly the Thargoids. Then strange Yellow Cargo crates were found near an Anaconda wreck. The yellow crates show up on scanners but we can't seem to interact with them.
