It's a UFO/ Flying Saucer. You can purchase one from the Thargoid shipyard in their home system of Miakce. They cost 800 trillion credits.

It's also possible that most of that is untrue and it's just a little well known Easter egg that Egosoft included in the game.

It's a UFO. And sure you can get one, you just need to follow it all the way to the Spacefly Queen's lair deep behind an asteroid field in the Xenon sector north of Getsu Fune. She'll sell you one, for the right price.

At least, that's what my MoM says.

one of the Nibblonian spacecrafts, that patrols the universe
Nibblonians stand about one foot tall and have two large eyes, as well as a third eye on an antenna in the center of their foreheads.

by the way, it's never a good idea to travel with an open cargo bay

You can follow it to the secret Goner base where all ships are half price and they have a fabulous 1 credit menu.

It's a secret, ARMED goner vessel. It even fired on me once when I was drunk!

I see. How drunk were you? Did you consume your entire cargo of Space Fuel?

Probably burped spacefuel breath while smoking spaceweed, it went BOOM! and he thought he was under attack. :P :lol:
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

X4 is a journey, not a destination. Have fun on your travels.

I would too if I were to be forced into my seat by G forces and shot to space on a long pointy stick, mostly filled with flammable liquid :)
