I just recently got into NMS just before the Aquarius update. I’ve really enjoyed things so far, but I’m at a weird point now. Every one of my primary missions has some vague objective that I can’t actually complete. The story (as it is) seems to have completely stalled out. I’m left to repetitious side missions like the Base Computer Archives and Settlers.

Is there anything else in terms of story, or am I on my own now? I just figured there would be some sort of resolution to Artemis, Atlas, or any of the really cool and interesting plots that seem to be going on here.

    Edit: Oh wait, also make sure you have “Ghosts In The Machine” selected when you go to the signal tower!

    Yeah, the “show the Atlas a wonder” quest is repeatable and endless, same for Base Computer and Settlers, so you’ve completed those questlines (at least, Atlas and I’m pretty sure Settlers - Base Computer might offer more as you progress the Artemis quest line).

    As to Ghosts in the Machine, that signal tower you get sent to should have someone to talk to at it. I don’t think it’s possible to have missed something with that quest in your log, because talking at the signal tower is the very first part of it.

    If you select the Ghosts In The Machine mission, there’s a way to restart it “with local objectives” or something to that effect. I’ll see if I can find how to do it when I’m back at my desk - the internet is being unhelpful right now.
