Investigation of the four Royal Stars (Aldebaran, Regulus, Antares, Fomalhaut) as cardinal navigational anchors or directional pointers based on ancient astronomical traditions.

Antares is one of four Royal Stars marking cardinal points of the ecliptic in ancient astronomy, serving as 'watchers' or 'guards' of the sky. This connection to ancient cosmological boundaries and the Antares highliner crash in Elite lore suggests potential significance for Raxxla location theory.
The Shades of Antares Antares is a star that has been part of Elite lore since FFE. At least in name. The crash of the highliner Antares has been in Galnet and the journals, on several occasions. There are several points to Antares that makes it interesting, from a Raxxla perspective. - Antares is one of the four Royal stars, marking the cardinal points of the ecliptic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_stars Spoiler These stars would mark "the ends of the world" in ancient times.
