User blog comment:Jackalex13/What tropical planet did the Normandy crew land on?/@comment-2A02:C7D:B034:9000:DC31:35FC:12D3:A93F-20171220181629

this may not be seen as it's on a old post but could they be on eladeen which is located in andromeda before the planet started to die as the moon and planet are in the exact same place and it's my theory that the Normandy got pulled into a black hole like the one in andromeda (I believe there connected) and they managed to reach eladeen after which they crash and maybe the crew are genetic ancestors to the jardaen and that the reason they have tech to create robots along with the chance it could be from the parts of Ede
