The Thargoids claim territory by seeding planets and moons with Thargoid Barnacles to produce Meta-Alloys to support their activities in the area. They have an affinity for systems with [[Ammonia World]]s in or near [[nebulae]]. To date, the [[Pleiades Nebula]], [[Witch Head Nebula]], [[Coalsack Nebula]], and two large [[Permits|permit]]-locked regions in the Col 70 Sector of the [[Spirograph Nebula]] and the Cone Sector of the [[Sanguineous Rim]] have been identified as Thargoid territories, and have high concentrations of [[Non-Human Signal Source]]s.<ref>[[:File:Thargoid-Activity-Map-Feb-3306.jpg|File:Thargoid-Activity-Map-Feb-3306.jpg]]</ref>
