I've been doing the Horizon Signal chain (which is awesome BTW) but I haven't seen any story progression in a while and was wondering if there's anything I have to do to trigger the next step.

Here's what I've seen so far:

- The events near the black hole (losing a science ship, sacrificing another scientist)
- The Messenger (all pops on my homeworld turned into its species)
- Admiral from the future forces me to kill her in space combat
- New colony has too many pops, some pre-built buildings; original colonists go missing
- Present version of aforementioned Admiral has died (but rumors of them still sneaking around somewhere)

What do I have to do to continue the chain? No spoilers, please!

The observation post thing is like a sidequest more than anything. You should have some new research options available, take them and build the things they let you build.

Thanks, I'll try those.

You don't actually have to do this to complete the chain. At least, I didn't have to when I got the achievment. What the OP is waiting for is the other two buildings. One is a level 3 tech, so it may take a while until he draws the tech card.
