Terminal Access Codes | No Man's Sky
Terminal Codes are solutions to number puzzles in No Man’s Sky. When you visit outposts on the planets you travel to, you’ll sometimes find terminals which require you to solve a puzzle and enter the last part of the access code in order to unlock them.
The puzzles aren’t too hard, but you only get one shot at solving them – if you choose the wrong answer, the terminal will stay locked forever. In this guide, we’re going to show you all terminal access codes in No Man’s Sky, what they unlock.
Each terminal you manage to unlock is going to provide you with coordinates for another point of interest – a crashed ship, an alien monument, an abandoned outpost, etc. It’s also going to improve your standing with the faction it belongs to. Some of the problems can be solved by simply swapping around the digits, while others require a bit of addition/substraction.

Description: The observatory hums gently as it scans the sky. The trader that manned it was clearly looking for something in the cosmos. And it seems the observatory may have found it.
If I can decipher this beacon’s code, I may be able to pinpoint its origin.

Description: Images show that this Observatory was once a warzone. Manngled metal, scorched walls and the heavily decayed corpses of a dozen hulking lifeforms betray a brutal firefight.
Now repaired, whatever transpired it must have happened before the Beacon that flashes on screen arrived. Perhaps if I enter the correct code I can decipher it.
Answer: 7398
Rewards:
Description: Images of shattered Sentinels are displayed like trophies on this terminal screen. Seems the observatory’s former overseer had a penchant for hunting these machines.
Perhaps their time would have been better spent monitoring incoming Beacons like the one that flashes on a monitor before me. If I can enter the correct access code perhaps I can discover where it originated from.

Description: A pulsing red light flashes on the console. Below it, a sequence of numbers repeats itself endlessly below it. It’s clearly a distress signal.
It is a cold, empty and distant way of viewing a disaster that, in all likelihood, cost a pilot’s life. If I can work out the encryption routine, I could perhaps trace a ship’s point of impact.

Description: A faint, but insistent, bleeping noise can be heard from the operations terminal.
A garbled distress call can be heard amongst it all, alongside screams and the tearing of metal. The only thing that’s clear to me is a brief number sequence. Cracking its code could lead me to the crash site.

Description: Long ago, it seems, an automated distress call went unanswered.
If I can crack the encryption pattern I could potentially extract the coordinates.

Description: The transmission readout suggests that, long ago, a distress signal went unanswered.
A sequence of numbers has been repeating itself for so long that its imprint is burnt into the screen. An input box flashes at me insistently. If I crack the code, I can find the ship.

3 – 5 – 8 – 13 – 21 – XX? Only one I haven’t been able to figure out.
Options are: 35, 34, 32
It should be 34. Seems that each number is previous two numbers added up.
Confirmed, it’s 34. Thanks Gosu!
Uhh answer for 1 – 2 – 6 – 24 – 120 – XXX is incorrect or something, I didnt get that number as an option. My answer options are 180 – 620 – or 720
The correct answer that I got is 720
Also, I think some of the answers for these are swapped with answers from another because the answer for 99 – 92 – 86 – 81 – XX is 77 which is the “answer” for the sequence below it. It says the answer for 99 – 92 – 86 – 81 – XX is 720 but 720 is the real answer for the sequence above it.
5040 – 720 – 120 – 24 – x = 6
The answer is 6 because 6 x 4 is 24 then 24 x 5 is 120 120 x 6 is 720 and then 720 x 7 is 5040 😀 had to work it out myself -_-
6
2738, 7382, 3827 what would this be?
3278
8273
7238
It’s 8273
The first number moves to the end of the value.
2738 is the original number. Then 2 moves to the end of the number, 7382. Then 7 moves to the end of the number, 3827. Then 3 moves to the end, 8273.
It’s 8273
8273
each time all numbers move 1 spot <– and the first becomes the last. so the next one would be 8273
80 – 71 – 63 – 56 – XX = 50

Thank you Good sir!
Help me….NIGGAH!!!!!!
365
365
It’s either 355-365-356
122*3-1 is 365
Multiple the number with 3 -1 gets you the answer
Can someone please tell me answer to 5-14-41-122-xxx
365 is the correct answer.
(5×3 = 15 – 1 = 14)
(14×3 = 42 – 1 = 41)
(41×3 = 123 – 1 = 122)
(122×3 = 366 – 1 = 365)
Its 365
It’s 3X -1 so it’s 365
5×3 – 1 = 14×3 – 1 = 41×3 – 1= 122×3 – 1= 365
Each number in the sequence is first multiplied by 3, then you subtract 1.
5 * 3 = 15, -1 = 14
14 * 3 = 42, -1 = 41
41 * 3 = 123, -1 = 122
122 * 3 = 366, -1 = [365]
I don’t know the answer to this one 1212 – 2121 – 1212 – ****
it’s not the option 1212 again.
Confirmed it’s 2121 for the answer.
answer 2121

0129 —-2xxx – 9120
9120 is the correct answer.
I got a sequence just now that has me stumped..
1 – 5 – 3 – 7 – 5 – 9 – X
seems like you add 4 then subtract 2 so the answer should be 7
it seems like to find the answer for any given one you either have to figure out the pattern between the numbers or you have to find which option has the numbers in places they haven’t been yet. the second one is easy but I’m too bad at math to not have to pull a calculator out or alt-tab and just look it up fo the first one lol
each number is the one two places before it plus 2.
Woot.
It’s +4, -2.
The answer would be 7. (Then 11, 9, 13, 11, etc.)
The Sequence is +4 then – 2 repeating the next number in the sequence would be 7
When is this gonna be updated next
Why is it that I can never seem to reach the distress signal coordinates for crashed ships? I’ve been flying to the marker for the last 30 minutes and it said it was 17 minutes when I started out….
Fly out into space turn on your pulse drive then turn down sharp into the area. It did it to me too and its so much easier to just jump into space and adjust from there.
The planets in NMS rotate (just like real ones). If you’re not traveling faster than the planet is rotating, your target will slowly get further away from you. Your ship is faster in space (no air resistance), so like Michaela suggests, zip out of the atmosphere, use your upset drive to fly right over your target, then pounce downward like a cat.
*pulse drive
