==== Barnacle Matrices ====
Following the escalation of the [[Second Thargoid War]] after the battle of [[HIP 22460]] and the subsequent arrival of the [[Thargoid Titan|Titans]], Thargoid forces began invading the bubble in late 3308. By mid-3309 (after facing stiff opposition from human forces and the newly reformed [[Aegis]]), Thargoid forces began entrenching themselves in systems featuring Ammonia worlds. Over time, small clusters of barnacle like structures began appearing on these planets.
By late 3309, many of these '[[Thargoid Barnacle Matrix|Matrix sites]]' had grown into vast Thargoid production sites, known as Spires. The purpose and function of these growths have not yet been determined.
