Okay check this out. And pause at 1:15

As they go through the
Omega relay you'll notice that the color it gives off is red instead of
the blue that we're used to. What does this mean? Does it do this
because of the extra energy needed to get to its destination? Is this
destination even in our galaxy?

One theory I've had is
that the reapers are in control of more than just our galaxy. I think
their empire could stretch to the Local Group. Hell maybe even the
entire Virgo Supercluster! That's right you heard it here first folks.
I don't think the Reapers hibernate in Dark Space I think they're
always active somewhere in our Supercluster.

Heres another interesting tidbit. Check this vid and pause at 28 seconds

You'll see both relays and you'll notice that the omega 4 relay is larger. Again the question is why? I think its larger for added power. And I also think it goes to another galaxy, or the void between galaxies instead of just another star system in our own galaxy.

So what do you think? Agree disagree?

Thane basically told you where it goes no?

[ChaoticBroth]

I think that the Omega-4 one might be one of the earlier ones that were made. There's also the possibility that it's been tampered with. I actually wouldn't be surprised if the Collectors were capable of making/modifying mass relays, seeing how they can detect the Normandy through the stealth system.

I got bored and decided I'd screw with it. You can change the colors of a mass relay from the control panel, its actually pretty easy.

the Omega-4 relay is a mystery and I am really looking forward to finally finding out where it goes...



in the book Mass Effect: Ascension (the second novel, taking place shortly after the events of ME1) the Omega-4 relay was a common subject, noone has ever come back... the Omega-4 relay became sort of a fairy tale of sorts, some speculated that on the other side everyone was killed, other speculate it's paradise and those that cross it choose not to come back...

[Darth Sithari]

Heh, when I first saw that, I thought "Waitaminnut, in Ascencion it was the Omega-6 relay, they already goofed up!" I double-checked, and it is indeed Omega-4.

Well, if I remember correctly, the blue of your typical Mass Effect flight is due to blue shift. The red might be redshift.



Redshift is particularly pronounced near black holes, approaching infinity as it nears the event horizon. And since it looks like the Omega relay may link to the massive black hole in the center of the universe, that hole may be cause the light of effect field to shift red rather than blue.



I'd go more in detail, but I'm pretty sure I'm too tired at the moment to fire the right cylinders for this kind of scientific thinking.

well thane basically tells you it leads to the collectors (but wth does he know)

and right after it shows it it shows the SR2 in a red nebula filled with ship debris and being attacked by yellow beams similar to the collector ship in the beginning...so im gonna guess it leads to collector territory. and seeing as no joint-species fleets that might have a chance against them have ever been sent (why would they?) no one returns because they get vaporized or collected, hence being suicide.

[FAZZ Gundam]

Edmonton, naturally.

[merikano]

If the O4 relay leads into dark space then don't the reapers just that to gain access to the galaxy? There's something else that we're missing.

[Frotality]

lol... merikano presents a very valid point that alot of theories somehow overlook...even i didnt consider that til just now...

[armass]

No idea where it goes but there seemed to be lot of wrecks in space there. I guess now we know what happened to the other ships who went.

I don't remember him saying anything like that. What did you hear him say?

[Unato]

well I guess he doesn't but in the launch trailer he does say if you're going after the collectors you'll have to pass O4 which to me heavily implies that whatever is beyond O4 is Collector's territory ( it's also followed by alot of wrecks and in ?Ascension ? novel it was stated that nothing has ever returned)

hmm, reapers are obviously in dark space, since why else would soveriegn try activatin the conduit, omega 4 relay most likely leads to collector territory, or perhaps the colectors are a second option for the reapers if incase soverign ever failed, im guessing the reapers are not stupid and wouldnt just leave one vaguard behind, the collectors got that tech somehow and have husks much like the geth have, husks are clearly from reaper influence, im susspecting that the collectors built a large comb or hive around a reaper ship, if you all remember soverign fired beams from his arms, i guess collector tech mixed with reaper tech got them those beams, so it is safe to say taht omega 4 leads to the collectors, only question is, will the shepard and team go alone?

Rereading my post, I should state that I meant the giant black hole in the center of the galaxy. Not the universe.

[Snowraptor]

but soveriegn could have been building up the collectors incase he failed

Detecting the Normandy and fiddling with Mass Relays are two entirely different things. The Normandy's stealth system is based on masking heat from sensors, if the Collectors use anything else to detect ships, gravitational changes, dark energy releases, biological energy, pretty much anything but IR scanners then the Normandy's stealth effect just won't work at all. So detecting the Normandy is just evidence of a different scanner system, whereas the Mass Relays are incredibly advanced pieces of tech that presumably are designed to be easy to activate and use but very difficult to understand and modify, much like the Citadel itself.

I suspect the black hole redshift idea is most likely.

NOT this. red/blue shift is the apparent change in frequency of  EM energy coming from something accelerating away from/towards an observer (respectively). This would not affect the color shining from the mass relays and if it did they would all be the same (red I guess).

Your post seems logical.
