[[File:Thargoid Interceptor Alien Crash Site 1.png|thumb|300px|A Crashed Thargoid Ship site]]

A '''Crashed Thargoid Ship''' consists of an ancient [[Thargoid]] [[Thargoid Interceptor|Interceptor]] or [[Thargoid Scout|Scout]] shipwreck on a planet's surface. The first wreckage site, a Thargoid Interceptor, was discovered in the Pleiades Sector AB-W b2-4 system on August 30, 3302, while the first crashed Thargoid Scout was discovered in HIP 17125 on September 28, 3303. Initially, it was not known or obvious that the sites had any connection to the Thargoids, but on October 14, 3303, Professor [[Alba Tesreau]] of [[Aegis]] confirmed that the crashed ships were definitively Thargoid in origin. Crashed Thargoid Ship sites are concentrated in the [[Pleiades Nebula]] and [[Coalsack Nebula]], regions where the Thargoids are known to have an extensive presence.

==Description==

"Crashed Thargoid Ship" sites consist of wreckage from a [[Thargoid Interceptor]] scattered in a canyon, near a shallow depression caused by the impact. There are fourteen visible pieces of the alien ship, and five distinct types of pieces. Additional pieces may or may not be buried beneath the visible wreckage. Thirteen pieces are external wing-like structures of unknown purpose. The fourteenth and largest piece is ostensibly the central part of the ship, a semi-octagonal "core" with a centralized circular "aperture", also of unknown purpose. While the intact ship has eight of each piece, save for the core, the crash sites seem to be missing some parts. All of the pieces are considerably larger than a [[Scarab]] [[SRV]], and the intact ship is approximately between a [[Python]] and an [[Anaconda]] in diameter.

~~==Description==~~

The circumstances that caused these Thargoid shipwrecks are unknown. The wreckage at all sites bears no obvious signs of weapon damage. Additionally, given the concentration of wreckage in a relatively small area at each site, it is possible that the ships were intact up until they impacted and shattered on their respective planets and moons.

Sites containing crashed [[Thargoid Scout]]s feature intact vessels. They are labeled simply "Crash Site" when targeted, and consist of a single, inert Thargoid Scout partially buried at the end of a shallow depression caused by the impact. Scanner analysis of the Scouts indicate they were contaminated with [[mycoid]], indicating they were likely casualties of the [[First Thargoid War]].

The wreckage of a smaller ship of vaguely similar design was discovered on September 28, 3303, on the planet HIP 17125 A 3 A in the HIP 17125 system. The circumstances of the discovery were somewhat mysterious, as the original discoverer of the wreckage was never identified.<ref name="Discovery">[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/733mmb/elite_dangerous_24_new_unknown_ship_crashed_hip/ r/EliteDangerous: Elite Dangerous 2.4 new Unknown Ship (crashed) Hip 17125 A 3 A -65.8193 | 48.8662]</ref> [[SRV]] scanner analysis of the wreckage identified it as a [[Thargoid Scout]] by comparing it to existing knowledge databases. High concentrations of [[mycoid]] particle, the bioweapon used by [[INRA]] against the Thargoids during the [[First Thargoid War]] in the mid-3100s, were also detected.

On October 14, 3303, an analysis by Professor [[Alba Tesreau]] of [[Aegis]] confirmed suspicions that the first crash site was an ancient [[Thargoid Interceptor]]. Tesreau stated, ''"Recent analysis of the [[Thargoid]] shipwreck in the Pleiades Sector AB-W B2-4 system indicates that it is a little over 100 years old, despite being extremely similar, if not identical, to the currently active Thargoid Interceptor. This suggests that Thargoid ship design does not change particularly rapidly, and also that the shipwreck in HIP 17125 could be equally old."''<ref name=":0">[https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/galnet/uid/59e0c4b16fc1d540d8703341 GalNet: Galactic News: Speculation over Thargoid Ship]</ref> Another Crashed Thargoid Ship, the site on planet 3 of the Musca Dark Region PJ-P b6-1 system, predates 3111, as that year was when that particular site was originally discovered by Professor [[Penelope Carver]]'s survey team. Multiple sites that dated to the [[Guardian-Thargoid War]] millions of years ago were discovered in the Trapezium Sector YU-X c1-2 system.

~~=== Analysis ===~~

The first sightings of modern-day crash sites occurred on September 20, 3307, in the aftermath of the activation of a new [[anti-xeno superweapon]] created by [[Salvation]] in the Cornsar system. The weapon forced the Thargoid fleet attacking Cornsar to flee to hyperspace, after which patrolling pilots and Aegis observation teams confirmed reports of numerous crashed Thargoid Interceptors on several local worlds, the apparent casualties of the weapon.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61488c7610ba9d4a345d4f69 GalNet: Thargoids Vanish from Cornsar System]</ref><ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/614b1b42ee27c94b1b195046 GalNet: Salvation Takes Credit for Repelling Thargoids]</ref> More fresh crash sites were created on December 14, 3307, following the activation of three of the anti-xeno superweapons in [[Delphi]], [[Maia]], and [[Merope]].<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61b22de57f20dc7b365da05a GalNet: Thargoids Repulsed from Three Systems]</ref>
