Following the news of the Melville Expedition's finds, the pace of new site discoveries rapidly increased as CMDRs began searching along the ship's path. Systems, and even planets, that held multiple sites were identified, lending credence to Professor Melville's theory that ruin density would increase closer to the center of Guardian civilization. | Following the news of the Melville Expedition's finds, the pace of new site discoveries rapidly increased as CMDRs began searching along the ship's path.

===Ram Tah's Scanner Breakthrough=== | |||
On February 13, 3303, Ram Tah announced that he had made a significant breakthrough in how to detect Ancient Ruins sites. Using a signal isolated from the Guardians' monolith network, Ram Tah made it possible for all ship scanners to identify sites within a range of 1,000 light seconds, greatly reducing the time and difficulty involved in the location process.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/en/galnet/uid/58a1c19915ac1c7d7426dab9 Galactic News: Ram Tah Makes Breakthrough]</ref> | |||
