Older reports (7+ days ago) are not shown.
Warden Dios (Inglourious Basterds), on the left, attacked you for 19 damage, raided 12194 + raid_bonus: 74908 energy
Attackers Tech: Helix Mountings Lv. 25, Side Winder Lv. 25
Defenders Tech: Reinforced Armor Lv. 20

I see many SY out here now.  I think the game is up, hiding stations out in the black.  Too many people are doing it now.  The area has become an unprotected raiders ground.

He raided not recycled? Have you sent a message to him?

I just set all my silos, trade station and research stations to moving to a different SY. the theory is that these guys might be assuming that stationary stations could belong to zombie players and raiding them for exp and resources if fine if no one squawks. Someone with that mind set will not likely hit a moving station.

Plus its harder to hit a moving station. since a probe will only give current location.

I have thought about just keeping my stations moving.  I just don't like the constant work to setup the moves.  I also have about 13 stations that should be moving.  The upper right menus will be messy all the time too.  The idea is growing on me however.

I don't move mine all the time for the same reasons.  I'll occasionally shift them if the area feels to crowded but my have been sitting still for a very long time (months).  Maybe I should do a one-off shift just for the heck of it.

I go to one SY and start a silo moving to it then go to another SY and do the same, etc. You are right the upper right menus look like a mess.

This move will take eleven days to complete so perhaps one move per month. Which will mean silos hanging around a SY and RS for two weeks plus. I wonder if having three stations grouped makes it a better target.
