mysterious magnetic anomaly?

[zebmrsa]

Any clue where this is or how to find it? Part of the "what was that" achievement

[Seth'cor]

use your scanner vehicles, you can see where hidden things are by the circle having a large spike on one side. when you get close enough and scan a new site will pop up.

[zebmrsa]

Been scanning lots and lots and have covered perhaps 1/4 of the moon surface at this point...

It was on the far side of the moon for me. In the darker colored area, bottom leftish area. No idea if it is randomized or not so try there.

Use 5 or more rovers to scan entire moon. I used 7. took few hours, but is lots to be found. at same time do the resource scan. Makes surface mining more better. Cheers

Found it, nothing special for now. Just a POI with science reward

[VladK02]

Hidden POI.

What you do is, when you go to scan a normal question mark on the map, ALWAYS scan for hidden POIs within range of that question mark when you get there.

magnetic anomaly is hidden in range of one of the regular points of interest.

Aside from achievement, nothing special, for now. maybe later, expansion pack - alien craft burried :)

Spent hours scanning with 5 rovers. Scanned probably 75% of the moon. Nothing. Yet another stupidly impossible objective in this game. They really want to piss off but the most dedicated players.

Seems you are more rude and sophomoric than dedicated.

Just scan 100 %, if you didnt find it, then you didnt scanned carefully enough.
In each of 7 plays i found it.

Good for you genius….. I actually scanned very carefully and thoroughly. Don’t assume otherwise. Only reason I did t scan 100% is because the earth was destroyed. LoL

It depends how you read that. I see it as validating that it exists, which answers your original question, not bragging. Its a random item.

Here is a hint: the anomaly is Reiner Gamma, a geographical feature of the Moon known as a lunar swirl.

And here is the actual location of the anomaly in game: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3381946885
