Generation Ship Thetis was discovered by CMDR Rhaider on April 28, 3303. It is located in Nefertem, orbiting the planet Nefertem 6 A. Shortly into the Thetis's ninth generation, passengers began reporting whispering sounds coming from comms units. The sounds, a digital signal being picked up by the ship's comms array, drove passengers homicidally insane, resulting in the loss of whole decks. The signal was found to have originated from an uninhabited planet that the Thetis had passed 15 lightyears earlier. A crew member who accidentally heard the signal described it as a whisper that said "kill them all". The crew were unable to stop the signal's spread through the comms network, and the killings continued, with those affected also writing words in an unknown script on the walls in blood. The final log is a garbled transmission of the signal.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/683l0d/generation_ship_thetis_found_madness_and_ghosts/ /r/EliteDangerous: Generation Ship Thetis found.

===Generation Ship Pleione=== | |||
Generation Ship Pleione was discovered by CMDR Carbucketty on May 5, 3303. It is located in Hez Ur, and can be found by traveling to the fifth planet in the system and then changing course toward Teuten for 8,000 ls. Generation Ship Pleione failed because its passengers began to give birth to only male children. The ship's medical officer discovered that the ship's male passengers were not producing gametes with the XX chromosome, an inexplicable anomaly. While this could have been rectified with technology, the officer's predecessor had not seen fit to bring any medical equipment that could manipulate gender at the embryonic stage or any XX and XY genetic samples. Eventually, all of the ship's females reached an age where they could no longer conceive, dooming the population, and the passengers decided to abandon ship. The medical officer decided to stay behind and die with the mission.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/69diqo/generation_ship_pleione_discovered/ /r/EliteDangerous: Generation Ship Pleione discovered]</ref> | |||
