System sleep mode ( dependent on in-game time)Ģ81,042 YEARS AGO: No user commands received for 10 minutes. This finally powered the Ash Twin Project and started the Nomai's time loop. Over two hundred thousand years later, having reached the end of its lifespan, the Sun goes supernova naturally and not from any interference from the Sun Station. Before the Nomai could think of another way to power the project, they were all instantly killed by the Ghost Matter erupting from the Interloper. This left the Ash Twin Project without a power source. Failure Īfter firing it, it turned out that the Sun Station was unable to impact the Sun in any meaningful way and would never be able to trigger a supernova. Idaea and Pye ended up building the Sun Station together, but their arguments continued on the station itself, with Pye making jokes about the Sun and Idaea being appalled at her lack of ethics. Idaea firmly opposed building the Sun Station, while Pye saw no other way to generate enough energy. The debate on the ethics of the use of a device able to destroy the solar system can be seen behind the energy controls of the Sunless City and inside the Sun Station. The construction of the Sun Station was the only thing the Nomai did that caused division and debate among them.

This would make the Orbital Probe Cannon shoot a probe in a random direction. The Ash Twin Project would then use the energy produced by this supernova to send the probe launch order and the probe data back in time by 22 minutes. The Nomai's plan was to fire the Sun Station and cause the sun to go supernova. After the conception of the Ash Twin Project which would send probe launch orders back in time to find the Eye of the Universe, the Sun Station was thus designed to induce a supernova. The only power source capable of producing enough power to send information 22 minutes into the past was the energy produced by a supernova. The Sun Station is destroyed 10,5 minutes into the loop, as is it engulfed by the Sun when it grows to become a red giant.Īfter the Nomai discovered the possibility to send objects and information back in time through warp cores, they quickly found out it required exponentially more energy the farther back in time they wanted to send it. The second and much more dangerous method is manually landing the ship on the Sun Station, a challenging feat given the Sun’s immense gravity and the Sun Station’s rapid orbit. The Sun Station warp tower located on Ash Twin can be used to warp to the Sun Station. As such, this ship becomes a central part of the experience for many, serving as a safe hub that can be returned to after exploring dangerous Outer Wilds areas like Dark Bramble.The primary method to access the Sun Station is revealed within the Sunless City on Ember Twin.
Rather than selecting these various planets, asteroids, and space stations through some sort of in-game menu or interface, Outer Wilds gives players a ship that can be used to seamlessly traverse the solar system at will, with the time it takes to move between the celestial bodies taking the place of loading screens. Along their adventure, players will encounter stormy planets, charming NPCs, and ancient ruins scattered with sparse details of the past. In Outer Wilds, players are tasked with exploring a small, mysterious solar system as a young alien.
This concept, if realized, would be far from the first or last time that the legendary toy brand has collaborated with the video game world via physical products- a recent leak even suggests that a Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order LEGO set could be in the works. A LEGO set based upon a ship from the cult-classic survival game Outer Wildscould become a reality.
