'''Thargoid Probes''', formerly known as '''Unknown Probes''', are devices of unknown purpose created by the [[Thargoids]]. They appear to point to Merope 5 C, the planet where [[Thargoid Barnacle]]s were first found. Activating a [[Discovery Scanner]] near a Thargoid Probe will cause it to emit an EMP wave and burst of noise. | '''Thargoid Probes''', formerly known as '''Unknown Probes''', are devices of unknown purpose created by the [[Thargoids]].

Thargoid Probes spawn in [[Non-Human Signal Source]]s. They are guaranteed to appear in sources with a threat level of 0 or 2, and may appear randomly in sources rated 5-7. The latter set of sources are dangerous to investigate as one or more [[Thargoid Interceptor]]s may be present, and will attack if they detect Thargoid objects within a pilot's cargo hold. Occasionally, Thargoid Probes may also be retrieved from transport ships interdicted in systems with a persistent Thargoid presence or under the effects of an [[Incursion]], or from the cargo bays of damaged [[Science Vessel]]s and [[Bulk Cargo Ship]]s that have been attacked by Thargoids.<ref>[https://canonn.science/codex/unknown-probe/ Canonn Research | Thargoid Probes spawn in [[Non-Human Signal Source]]s.
