Mine was bang on the money according to the timestamp captured in filename on PSN but gametime was 17:59 and Juuuust about to tick over to 18:00 
Which I then missed due to the cooldown delay between taking screenshots on PS5

I apologise for the potentially dumb question, but I’ve just had to catch up on everything that has happened since the meetup yesterday (hundreds of messages 
) but should I jump into the game now and get my data at 16:00 UTC (which is in like 20 minutes) or are we still unsure about what exactly we need to do? I don’t want to jump the gun and spam the submissions by accident.

I say go for it if you can.
Gather the data now so it’s ready for the form that Archie is building.
He didn’t set a specific UTC time just that it should be many points of data for the same UTC time.
This means we could in theory, submit a bunch of data points tied to several UTC times. 00:00 seems to be the most popular so far but 16:00 or 08:00 UTC might be more suitable to folks in other parts of the world.
I don’t think we should limit it to just one right now, but 00:00 - 08:00 - 16:00 UTC seem the most popular to take a snap from as they tie in with the swarm expedition.
Going to join in for this one too so we get a nice chonky dataset for 16:00. It has one of the funny numbers so it seems like a good one to take part in

I’m willing to test this theory with you! I’m going to take a screenshot of this upcoming hour just in case but I do see a nice pattern there

I loaded into my save and fell through the space station what the hell 
Edit: Oh, oh boy, the station straight up has lost all collision even after it fully loaded in. I had to reload my restore point and immediately use my jetpack to jump onto my ship to avoid falling into the void. If I try stepping off I still fall lol

I think we’re saying the same thing but it different ways. 18:00 the dream and UTC line up.

This makes the most sense since August 9, 2026 at 18:00 UTC is the exact momemnt the 10 year celebrations launch.

Submitted to the form already*
I missed the window by a few minutes (couldn’t get to the coords in time), but at least I can save the game in the correct spot and return next time. I can’t log on during the other two time windows, so I guess I’ll be back in 24 hours

IIRC somebody put bases down on all planets in a system, about 5/6, exactly at 0,0 but not all would align because of how NMS interprets it. Though we see globes NMS sees cubes. I’ll try and find the video.

Shared dream time will always reach 18:00 at the top and middle of the hour in UTC.
If you all take another screenshot at the 30 minute mark in the middle of the hour, it will also be 18:00. So in about 15 minutes.
