easter-eggs

[sharp flame]

yep

[timid solstice]

this is literally the topic of ||1899||

[sharp flame]

spoilers haha

just came out, no?

[timid solstice]

Yes

the the earth symbol is HEAVILY featured

[sharp flame]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_illusion#:~:text=Frequency illusion%2C also known as,an increased frequency of occurrence

I'll be honest I've never understood this phenomenon more than when I started EE hunting

[timid solstice]

which could mean, clue themes on 1899 and has the earth symbol, look at the planet symbols, look and find saturn

[sharp flame]

In the European and Arabian traditions of alchemy, lead ♄ was considered an impure base metal which, by the separation, . . . , could be transformed to . . . gold

okay wait

"But what of the fabled transmutation of lead to gold? It is indeed possible—all you need is a particle accelerator, a vast supply of energy and an extremely low expectation of how much gold you will end up with. More than 30 years ago nuclear scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) in California succeeded in producing very small amounts of gold from bismuth, a metallic element adjacent to lead on the periodic table."

[digital blade]

so

all i nneed is a particle accelerator

[sharp flame]

LBNL

lmao

[digital blade]

good to know

time to become gold tree

[sharp flame]

only one step away, if you think about it

just run, then your particles will be accelerating

[digital blade]

trueeeee

Maybe they match another rover? Also this clue would coincide with the "tire-tread" tattoo the previous character has on her ear.

[timid solstice]

crash test marker, Cassini was crashed into Saturn in its Grand Finale

[pure loom]

This and the other luminescent lighting on the weapon look like images of aurora on Saturn

Also the overall colour palette is similar to this image

[sharp flame]

..." Cassini science team announced that the proximal orbits of the probe would be named the "Grand Finale""

[timid solstice]

Leith clues were to Atmospheric models

[pure loom]

Even including the green from that image

[sharp flame]

I'm wondering what the T-Rex is about

that's surely something

[sharp flame]

they were?

[pure loom]

So, confirming this path, you think?

[sharp flame]

Did you guys see the Leith -> Brain In a Vat connection?

[timid solstice]

ofc I mentioned it 🙂

[timid solstice]

I think so

[sharp flame]

okay haha yeah

but also Rockhound

[timid solstice]

must have been a weird coincidence

[sharp flame]

It's really weird that the clues can have dual or triple meanings

[sharp flame]

not possible surely

Leith is a rare name

[timid solstice]

the image is saying "Saturn- saTURn.... SATURN!"

[sharp flame]

and the Film is the only one which appears on the BIV wikipage

[timid solstice]

oh really

oh yeah

so wierd that i was watching it and didnt even mention it and it shows up

[sharp flame]

that.. is a pretty good connection to asteroids

maybe the crash test symbol is supposed to represent a crash of some sort?

either meteor impact or satellite crash

THE FINALS™️

[pure loom]

Hey @timid solstice with the padlet, the green colour should be for observation of clues (just noting they existing) and the orange is possible interpretation - if the green has interpretation in it, then it gets confusing if alternative interps are linked to it

[hidden nacelle]

pretty sure its just a weapon charm

[sharp flame]

yes

but all the other ones had meanings

would be weird if this didn't

[pure loom]

Rob has used the T-rex in the past, in BF EEs

[hidden nacelle]

maybe hinting at a another asteroid

[fallen jasper]

New clues

[pure loom]

Could be, or an impact. I think Jupiter is the only planet where a comet impact has been observed

[timid solstice]

sorted it

[pure loom]

I see that! Thanks! 👍

[timid solstice]

can you give other certain people permission to move/edit in padlet?, would be nice

[pure loom]

Yeah, move especially

[timid solstice]

fr fr

[pure loom]

It gets crowded in there

[tulip matrix]

The image names may be a reference to Brownian noise

which can be called both brown noise and red noise

[timid solstice]

as in Brownian motion?

[tulip matrix]

and the fact that when youu manipulate the image you get red noise

[tulip matrix]

Yes exactly

the name is derived specifically from that

[timid solstice]

im here waving my arms around to feel the gas particles in the air now that i cant see

Virginia Leith from The Brain That Wouldn't Die donated to medical science at the UCLA Medical School.

you think the army blew her up?

[pure loom]

Angelo Secchi S.J. (Italian pronunciation: [ˈandʒelo ˈsekki]; 28 June 1818 – 26 February 1878) was an Italian Catholic priest, astronomer from the Italian region of Emilia.[1] He was director of the observatory at the Pontifical Gregorian University (then called the Roman College) for 28 years. He was a pioneer in astronomical spectroscopy, and was one of the first scientists to state authoritatively that the Sun is a star.

spectroscopy is the new Byzantine Empire

[fallen jasper]

The Byzantine Empire shall not be forgotten

[pure loom]

Have the markings here been resolved?

[timid solstice]

no

btw is that rain

[pure loom]

hmmm... light pulses?

It looks like "buy this game" lighting

[timid solstice]

and the character is blue and the rim light is orange

[pure loom]

whoa - symbols...

Have they been picked up before?

[timid solstice]

yeah

ill link you

[pure loom]

[timid solstice]

#easter-eggs message

we got side tracked by the ceres is saturn symbol

[pure loom]

thanks

This is what I see. Anyone else refined them more?

[timid solstice]

can you share that clean image no notes, its nice, will try adding my interp

[timid solstice]

sorry yes, SPEAR tried #easter-eggs message

[pure loom]

Oh yes, the C X thing looks more correct that my star

[timid solstice]

I see you lurking, waiting to post the answer!

[pure loom]

Angelo Secchi also discovered solar spicules. And I wondered if these patterns/lines on the first character's face might be those.

another clue?

[hidden nacelle]

ye we got a new image

[boreal trench]

this would link it to Copernicus

[neon stream]

Lol I wish. I'm trying to keep myself a bit up to date with the hunt for when I come back. The semester is almost over and I have tons of things to do. After December 10 I should be free to continue with the hunt 😂

New shipment of Yerba Mate just arrived, 15 Kg 😂

They cost like $15 each, but buying many it costs like $10, so it's cheaper 😂

[tulip matrix]

Sheesh

Das a lotta yerba

[neon stream]

Yeahh we drink a lot of mate 😂

It'll last a few months 😛

[tulip matrix]

I feel like at this point you should just grow your own 😂

[neon stream]

Sadly it only grows in certain climates, and the process and the return is not that good unless you have a lot of land. Otherwise...I would 100% would 😂

[tranquil ivy]

Thank you Dusty!

[tender leaf]

what is this?

[neon stream]

They are dried leaves of Yerba Mate (a plant). It's used to prepare an infusion drank in South America called mate 🧉

[neon stream]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mate_(drink)

Basically it's like a tea, we just drink it in a weird way 😂

[digital blade]

metal straw+hot water

i see no issue

[neon stream]

And Yerba Mate is an official ingredient of the OSPUZE energy drinks . That's my own lore 😂

[digital blade]

good ole energy tea eggnog

[tender leaf]

pretty weirdd yeah lol

[neon stream]

The weirdness doesn't stop there. It's more of a social drink, so we all drink from the same straw 😂

[timid solstice]

A Venn diagram of unions and intersections for two sets, A and B and their complements, within a universe Ω A,B .

[pure loom]

So, from that 79=48=111=0x30 clue, the left circle group could be 79, the right 111, and the intersection of the Venn diagram 48. But what would 0x30 mean?

Hahaha

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Venn

[timid solstice]

Circles are similar to Copernicus planet orbits too

This diagram, presented in the more mathematical focused section of the book, illustrates the underpaying complexity of the system. The sun is at the center and the other circles are necessary to illustrate the movement of just one of the planets. Copernicus' system required perfect circular motion, and as such, it still required (much smaller) epicycles, for the planets to match their observed motions.

[boreal trench]

I think this is definitely what it is, not sure everyone else can see the abcde?

[latent peak]

I saw CX D| |B |A |E

I can't see the circle however

[boreal trench]

The circle isn't completely there it just lines up perfectly with the X and the lines next to each letter

[latent peak]

Aah got ya! Now it makes sense

[timid solstice]

The circles line up 100% and are exactly the same scale. The C and E is there 100%. The D is there but to me also looks like a bigger sideways 6. The B is kind of there and I can’t really see the A at all.

[boreal trench]

I found the A is easier to see if you dont zoom in to far

[digital blade]

i see 3 As where that A is

actually 4

[mortal ivy]

@prisma stump Solving the EEs are fun as well, but it can get a bit exhausting when you work a full day and then spend 5 hours just analyzing a single image for the fourth night in a row 😂 Just needed to unwind with some mindless fun

[sharp flame]

Okay, I think now would be a good time to organize all of our current clues

cause we have loads of connections

and I think we have enough to see the big picture now

[timid solstice]

pin is up to date #easter-eggs message

[sharp flame]

yeah, was just looking at it

I think the padlet does a pretty good job too

you just kinda get hit with information overload sometimes, if you know what I mean

did we ever figure out this eye

cause that is one big pupil

[sharp flame]

.

[pure loom]

I measured both irises and they were the same, but the pupils might be different. It looks odd. Possible reference to David Bowie?

[sharp flame]

obviously there's something in this eye too

but I can't really make that out

[latent peak]

I think thats just the source of the finals text beeing that been beamed on her face

[sharp flame]

could be, yeah

also I still am solid about this being a 57

[latent peak]

I agree, the sputniks made the most sense as well if its reference Van Morisson

[sharp flame]

congruent circles

it's this

right?

the E lines up perfectly

the r is basically a c

Nice!!

[sharp flame]

yes I think that's it

okay nothing new really, just it's appearance in Euclid's Elements

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesica_piscis

it has a wiki page though

I mean I think Euclid might be our password holder maybe

[latent peak]

Yeah ive been wondering the same. Im trying to find a way to connect it to René Descartes

[sharp flame]

oh

I think I found that too

[latent peak]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system ?

[hidden nacelle]

maths 😐

coordinate geometry?

[sharp flame]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_geometry

4th paragraph

^^^

[latent peak]

oo nice

[sharp flame]

so either the clues are pointing towards Descartes, or Euclid

325 seems like a Euclid thing from the start

but maybe we were supposed to link him to Descartes through Virginia Leith with the Brain thing

[latent peak]

aaah that makes sense. Cus Cecil Leith doesnt really fit in anymore

[sharp flame]

OHHHHHHHH

O = 0 = o = 0

"Euclidian Geometry is the study of geometry without the use of coordinates"

in other words

no grid or scale

[latent peak]

oooh

[sharp flame]

I think the O = 0 = o = 0 refers to geometry which doesn't care about shape/size

just realised Euclidian geometry is kinda the opposite of that

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projective_geometry

[latent peak]

That makes total sense, I thought it represented planets lol.

[sharp flame]

Projective Geometry is mentioned early on the page of Euclidian Geometry

anyway buncha clues stemming from that Euclid one

probably more than before

but it's one down

[latent peak]

Thats great! I got a lot to research after work. I still don't understand how to get any numbers from Euclidian Geometry.

Like, can you apply it to for example Titan ?

[sharp flame]

I don't think we're supposed to get numbers from it

[latent peak]

Oh right

[sharp flame]

Titan might have been the direct reference to Huygens

Christiaan Huygens discovered Titan

Cassini-Huygens is named after him

the satellite which had the SATCAT code appear in the 2nd image

[latent peak]

Right, damn this changes everything

[sharp flame]

Or just a reference directly to the Cassini probe, which was sent directly to Titan

Copernicus is referenced in Giovanni Cassini's page once or twice

I'm just not sure whether we're supposed to find the point where these two clue threads meet, or if they're already connected by the fact that Copernicus inspired Cassini/Huygens

a lot of inspiring going on

[thorny birch]

This is an interesting article that brings together some of the clues that we have been working on:
Article is about Neptune - Which seems to be a clue but we haven't used it much.
A comet hit Neptune - Possible connection to the impact clues.
The reason scientists think a comet hit Neptune based on the carbon monoxide and methane distributions found in Neptune's atmosphere - I bring this up because there was mention of a bovine disease and possible link to those gasses.
This was studied with an infrared telescope (Herschel Space Telescope) - Maybe that means something?

I suppose, all that to say, we may be looking for something having to do with comets/asteroids impacting other planets in our solar system. Also a possible explanation for the overlapping circles (overlapping orbits/trajectories). Maybe I'm reaching, this article just seemed to graze a number of topics that have been discussed.

https://www.space.com/8807-comet-smacked-neptune-200-years-data-suggests.html

[vital cove]

Yeah my girlfriend pointed this out to me at the time

[latent peak]

Yeah the 6 degrees of separation is really tight when it comes to those big thinkers

[vital cove]

She's not involved with the Easter egg hunt otherwise but she's very chuffed that Euclid has made a comeback since then

[sharp flame]

hey, maybe Euclid is gonna be the answer too haha

[sharp flame]

yeah, Degrees of Separation was the phrase I was looking for

Copernicus, Euclid, Descartes are all appearing just as much as Plato, Pythagoras, Kepler etc.

it's hard to know who are supposed to be connected as they all already are

[timid solstice]

Did you see this? #easter-eggs message

[sharp flame]

Yes

looked into it a bit more

Vesica Piscis is the shape formed in a specific overlapping of 2 circles

2 circles, where the centre of one lies on the circumference of the other

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesica_piscis

[sharp flame]

the exact clue image is specifically of the Vesica Piscis in Euclid's book

the only reason I found this image is cause I searched "congruent circles" in wikipedia

[timid solstice]

Top letter looks like a C though

Not gamma

[sharp flame]

idk i've learned that if it's 90% there then it's probably that

especially with Euclid being the artist here

wait

isn't the left symbol

Delta

= D

and Gamma

= G

[sharp flame]

it's the Euclid proof with English characters

G looks like a C

[timid solstice]

could be that

[sharp flame]

also I see the triangle now

[timid solstice]

me too

[sharp flame]

it was faint but I see the triangle corners on A and B

[timid solstice]

ive just got out of bed and booted photoshop

damn these eggs!

[sharp flame]

look there's no way it's anything but this

we can treat this as a Descartes family crest

or a Mendeleev coin

[timid solstice]

what do you mean?

Descartes method was NOT this

[sharp flame]

as in, it looks close enough that we should treat it as true, solely because of its connections

[timid solstice]

I see

[sharp flame]

although to be fair that Descartes crest looks identical

but so does the Euclid diagram

either way, can I put it on the padlet?

[timid solstice]

im on it

[sharp flame]

okay deleting mine

[timid solstice]

where do we go from here

[sharp flame]

there are a few clue boxes I might delete

for the sake of clutter

[timid solstice]

you can move things around

[sharp flame]

okay but something like the venn diagram thread

I mean I guess it can stay, but it doesn't really fit into our clues anymore, or at all

[timid solstice]

yeah things should stay but can be moved to clear space

[sharp flame]

makes sense

it's just quite hard to follow once you have to look back on it and they all seem as important as each other

[timid solstice]

Dante's 9 Circles of Hell stayed 😆

[sharp flame]

I only noticed it when trying to sift through it to make the recap 😭

but anyway yeah

I just feel like it would be easier to remove them and readd them if they did mean something

[timid solstice]

we could decide a colour for more or less confirmed routes

[pure loom]

Red - “you’re getting hotter”

[sharp flame]

this one for example can probably be cut out of the middle

[sharp flame]

Red seems like a pretty good colour choice actually

I renamed 'Symbols' to 'Vesina Piscis Diagram'

if that's okay

[pure loom]

Maybe instead of some sort of Venn diagram or binary orbits, the overlapping circles could represent an interference pattern from two point sources?

On my phone but let me see if I can find a better example

[sharp flame]

did you see the Vesina Piscis diagram

I think that itself was our 'connection' to Euclid

[pure loom]

https://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/light/Lesson-1/Two-Point-Source-Interference

[pure loom]

No, I’ll take a look

[sharp flame]

this

Replace the C with a G and everything else lines up

can you also post the raw image

[timid solstice]

sure will do

[sharp flame]

as good as I can get it

[timid solstice]

yeah im trying to get the B to pop

[sharp flame]

I can't

but hopefully you can kinda tell the triangle corners in the middle

[sharp flame]

that's great!

[timid solstice]

triangle is clear

[sharp flame]

you can probably use VP-2 on the padlet

[pure loom]

This is a good find.

https://tenor.com/view/what-does-it-mean-austin-powers-confused-gif-13385768

[sharp flame]

it's just a geometrical thingy which appears in Euclid's Elements

it's how you make a triangle

without using a grid

[pure loom]

Yeah, maybe it just confirms Euclid. Euclid is the new Mendeleev

[sharp flame]

by just a compass and a straight edge

[pure loom]

Where euclidium?

[sharp flame]

basically the core of Euclidian (no grid) geometry

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_things_named_after_Euclid

Ah didnt think you were on the same timezone as me

Im in England too

[sharp flame]

I just heard the phrase "Cartesian coordinate system" used, first time hearing it in my life. And only a few days after learning of it myself

[solar glade]

really? interesting. i studied Architecture and it’s sorta general knowledge for us

[meager wigeon]

new mode conquest 😉

what is say ?

[unkempt crypt]

G dabe? G D abe… D GABE

D GABEN

Ok I’m gonna stop confusing people now

[digital blade]

get gabed

[pure loom]

I’m going to throw a wild card idea into the mix…

Three out of the four symbols for the band Led Zeppelin have elements represented in the clues - Jimmy Page’s logo (first on the left) is a medieval symbol for the planet Saturn - also the lower part of this symbol might actually be shown on the outer ear of character one - the white line that runs along the edge of her ear looks a lot like that part of the logo and could be drawn on. John Bonham’s symbol (third from the left) is potentially represented by the overlapping circles clue. The feather of the Ma’at in Robert Plant’s symbol (4th from the left) is potentially what is shown next to the cross on the character in image two. I don’t think we’ve see anything from John Paul Jones’ symbol (second from the left). Rabbit hole presenteth.

(Bonus fact - Jimmy Page played guitar on an early Van Morrison recording).

[pure loom]

Interesting line from the LZ song ‘Good Times, Bad Times’: “Good times, bad times, you know I've had my share
When my woman left home for a brown-eyed man
But I still don't seem to care”

This marking on the first character’s ear is what I mean by the similarity to the lower part of the Jimmy Page logo.

[sharp flame]

I kinda see it, yeah

[pure loom]

Separately, character two appears to have a bullet wound in her right shoulder.

Is it supposed to represent a crater?

And are those symbols along the edge of her top next to the wound/crater?

[zenith crown]

oh yeah i saw that when the image was released, thought nothing of it lmaooo

[pure loom]

Probably we need to compare a bunch of craters that are named after people that we think are linked in clues. The top right of it looks a little like Cassini crater

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassini_(lunar_crater)

But then the inner surface of it looks very rough, which wouldn’t match that well.

[sharp flame]

Is this a normal thing?

I'm sure you guys have discussed it already

[tender leaf]

how is going the hunt? im always busy at work 😦

[pure loom]

I didn’t see anything about it, but I’ve only been in here in and off the last few days

[sharp flame]

Okay, I think it's supposed to mean something

[sharp flame]

going well I think

it's supposed to be harder, right? 🥲

[latent peak]

Oh i totally missed that! Nice

[latent peak]

I haven't seen it being discussed, its the first time we see the Mac 10 from this angle. I havent found a real life version with 2.. screw holes ? (I dont know guns).
Usually theres only one, like this https://modernfirearms.net/en/submachine-guns/u-s-a-submachine-guns/ingram-mac-10-m10-m11-eng/#group-2

On the other sides there's only one "circle" https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1031539174743998526/1035157401457930300/THE_FINALS_Extra_OSPUZE_Candy.jpg

[sharp flame]

They could be alluding to the same thing as the eyes from the first pic..?

pair of circles, similar size

not sure what this pair of circles could represent

but if it means something, it's probably something in the realm of Descartes / Euclid or Copernicus

I'm still perplexed about this clue

the 831 Stateira kinda came out of the Max Wolf connection, which Rob had highlighted

and then Rob specifically points out the 831 for us

[zenith crown]

18th of February beta test?????

I assumed he was correcting us since we were on the track believing it was 110D631.

I think the key is discovering what the D stands for.

Maybe Delta again ?

[sharp flame]

GRAU identification seems pretty similar

also another observation:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbiting_Astronomical_Observatory
and

also I suppose a coincidence

although that word doesn't seem to apply in this space

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copernicia

The Descartes crest comprises of 4 palm branches

The plant named after Copernicus, Copernicia,** is a palm**

and also this

dunno why palms are appearing everywhere

quite the coincidence

oh wait

found something else

but I'm kinda clogging this space up with all my ideas hahaha

[latent peak]

lol go for it

[sharp flame]

the copernicus star

is in a Binary system

[latent peak]

oooh

Thats interesting

[sharp flame]

with 2 stars

(2 circular eyes of the same shape)

nah wait a minute

"As of 2015, five extrasolar planets (designated 55 Cancri b, c, d, e and f; named Galileo, Brahe, Lipperhey, Janssen and Harriot, respectively) are known to orbit 55 Cancri A."

anyway yeah gonna pull myself out of this rabbit hole before it gets any deeper

[latent peak]

Well @pure loom was on the same track with binary stars and Barycenters.
We can still tie it to Euclid i guess ?

[sharp flame]

sure, the dual circles could definitely also bring itself round to Binary orbits

clues can be reused

like, most recently, the 325

[pure loom]

I think there is a specific name for a binary pair where they are so close they share atmospheres.

[sharp flame]

Stars have atmospheres?

[pure loom]

The Corona - https://scied.ucar.edu/learning-zone/sun-space-weather/solar-corona

Also, I’ve been wondering if VM-57 is the initials of the binary pair

Maybe the “V” is a Gamma?

[sharp flame]

would be a very different path to Van Morrison's Brown-Eyed Girl

but perhaps

[pure loom]

Yes, I wonder if it’s a brown dwarf? Is that the right term?

[sharp flame]

I suppose that could work

let me look for something

[pure loom]

Yeah, so it could be a brown dwarf pair that are very close to each other.

[sharp flame]

Man maybe Rob wants us to get a telescope and find it ourselves 🤣

[pure loom]

I had one when I was a teenager. Sold it to by a gaming PC

https://tenor.com/view/what-more-do-you-want-from-me-kyle-broflovski-south-park-s22e7-nobody-got-cereal-gif-20603772

Joking. I did build a telescope though. Fun times.

I can’t watch this now (at work and finishing lunch), but this might be useful: https://youtu.be/wc5orB-3h3Q

[tulip matrix]

Umm... Excuse me?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squared_triangular_number

Closest thing I've seen so far to that tower shape

[tulip matrix]

https://www.solargeometry.com/solar-geometries/

Inputting 831 and 110 into Euclid's algorithm outputs a common divisor of 1

or perhaps using Euclidian division
110 divides into 831, 7 times with a remainder of 61

[latent peak]

Could be.. Back again at 2061 ? and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2061:_Odyssey_Three which Hank mentioned

[slender lodge]

The answer to this tier is definitely ∞§∆ΠμΩ

[pure loom]

New password joke required 😂

[pure loom]

I don’t know why we haven’t examined this more closely

[vital cove]

I tried looking into it

But didn't see any obvious connections to other clues

[pure loom]

Me neither, yet

[sharp flame]

Guys, I've found that it's really helpful to just search these keywords in Wikipedia

There are loads of different things which pop up

[pure loom]

[sharp flame]

major focus on Halley's comet here

can't look into it right now but it seems very likely to have some connections

[pure loom]

I spent quite a bit of time looking at Halley’s Comet info, but nothing jumped out

[sharp flame]

Yeah, only other thing I can find is 2061 Anza the asteroid

I think the novel seems the strongest then

[latent peak]

Yeah i spent some time reading as well, but couldn't find much. The book seems pretty awesome though

[sharp flame]

110D831 is still kinda stumping me

or 110D631

the D is probably short for something

[pure loom]

I’m also wondering if VM-57 is actually 995-57 if the VM is Roman numerals. That would give us 938

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/jinki948-cat-shocked-shocked-face-shock-gif-22585372

[sharp flame]

but obviously it could very well still be a connection which Rob wanted to Piggyback off of the Van Morrison clue

so we shouldn't completely discount it

I just had to check

[pure loom]

Van Morrison seems too obvious to me

[sharp flame]

Well Sputnik is the clue

Brown eyed girl is the song

[pure loom]

This saved me from a rabbit hole. Thanks! 🙏

[sharp flame]

Sputnik appears as a small sentence in his paragraphs

it only caught my eye cause I searched for "57" on his page

I think that's as far as Van Morrison goes

[sharp flame]

Sputnik-1 is less obvious, so that's what I'm assuming is the clue

Also how many other musicians are writing songs named after physical characteristics who also happen to have a first band named after a satellite launch 😭

Gotta give Rob the credit for even finding that in the first place haha

[pure loom]

Yeah, true.

[sharp flame]

Also we haven't really connected Sputnik directly to anything yet either

[pure loom]

Brown-eyed NamaTama when?

[sharp flame]

Imagine a NamaTama with hair 💀💀

[pure loom]

Maybe both characters being female suggests we should be looking for an historical female?

[sharp flame]

could be

the Sputnik-1 clue (being the very first satellite) could mean that another satellite is what we're looking for

Cassini? Maybe this was before we got it's literal SATCAT number

yeah that makes sense

[cold forum]

this is cursed

let them be bald

[pure loom]

Has anyone had any thoughts about what these blocks represent? They look quite Arecibo message-like.

[sharp flame]

I think we'd also recognize that if we stumbled upon it

[pure loom]

These lines, which we thought might have been rover tracks (or similar) could represent a Fresnel lens.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_lens

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augustin-Jean_Fresnel

[sharp flame]

noooo😭

that is very cursed

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/pump-elvis-presley-austin-butler-elvis-on-stage-gif-26399611

[sharp flame]

'Brown eyed girl'
'Red sports caracter'

I think colour might be being hinted at here

as part of the password maybe?

I would not be surprised if this answer is a hexcode for a colour called "Descartes Red" or something haha

[latent peak]

"Mars looks reddish-brown because it is covered in dust which has a high iron content."
Would be a first clue to mars though.

Brownian Noise aka red noise was a path @tulip matrix mentioned a while ago

[pure loom]

A pretty strong Saturn clue in the first character's earring though

[sharp flame]

yeah, but chances are the third image is gonna be Yellow_Hat_Boy or something haha

and then our brown and red theories get thrown out the window

[sharp flame]

I mean Ceres also seems just as likely

[pure loom]

I thought that got ruled out, but then I wasn't following posts closely that day

All I saw was posts about it being Saturn, not Ceres - did I catch that wrong?

[timid solstice]

No that’s right, it’s not as ambiguous or Ceres or Saturn, it’s a clear clue

Thinking about Leith, I think that’s a clue in the first image to Titan, as it’s a moon with a thick atmosphere and Leith created atmospheric models

[pure loom]

Yeah, that's what I thought too

[solar glade]

perfection

[timid solstice]

The other clues are about coordinate systems/spaces and positions of things in the solar system

So what is around Saturn/Titan and what position

[latent peak]

I think it was either an old version of the Saturn symbol or an upside down and flipped version of ceres symbol.

[sharp flame]

then what's insane is that Virginia Leith also starred in the Brain That Wouldn't Die

for the whole Brain in a Vat thread

which I can guarantee is connected

cause there are only 10 names on the Leith surname wikipedia page

and she is one of them

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leith_(surname)

[timid solstice]

I think that clue is to Descartes

I think you found the coat of arms to easily 😅

[pure loom]

Yes, but Rob could have added that BIV clue in to get the double-Leith clue thing - just as a funny clue

[sharp flame]

well it took a bit of deduction haha

[sharp flame]

but Descartes?

[pure loom]

It could just be a continuation of that line - I could be wrong though. The Titan atmosphere rabbit hole and the BIV one seem pretty desparate

[timid solstice]

Brain in a vat is the clue, the movie is connected by theme and Leith staring is very big coincidence imho

[sharp flame]

I'll be honest the only reason I looked into the BrainVat was cause I read through the Methane connection and was like "no way"

if you guys didn't know already, the Wikipedia Disambiguation page is a lifesaver for this 🙏 🙏 🙏

[timid solstice]

Yup

[pure loom]

what's the methane connection? (sorry, slowly catching up here after being only partly on board the last few days)

[sharp flame]

Bovine fart methane

[timid solstice]

Yeah I missed that to hahaha

[sharp flame]

wish I was kidding

[pure loom]

oh, haha.

[sharp flame]

so yeah I kinda thought a redux of that clue might be needed

I think the BIV being inside the skull was the biggest giveaway

then Descartes appears in the first paragraph

Ancient Philosopher, always worth looking into

go onto his wiki, scroll down and this appeared

yeah we logged that Rob 👋

[pure loom]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descartes-Huygens_Prize

[sharp flame]

the coat of arms represents Descartes, and that's that clue finished
unless there's something else we missed?

[pure loom]

Descartes-Huygens - that's a crossover with Titan

[sharp flame]

I'm not too sure what that 👀 could mean now haha

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/aye-captain-gibbs-potc-gif-11148230

[sharp flame]

I mean, if we weren't sure where to look, I guess that's pretty good confirmation... 👀

worth a look

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_things_named_after_René_Descartes

also

I think this might be

what we were looking for

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snell's_law

[timid solstice]

Wiki is asking me to donate. If it gets shut down how else are we going to solve this egg 🤣

[timid solstice]

Maybe

[sharp flame]

but yeah I can't be certain at all

also looks like our "chevrons" in the previous picture

but only loosely

[pure loom]

Maybe Titan was meant to lead us to Huygens, which could lead to the Descartes-Huygens prize, which leads us to Descartes?

Descartes is the new Mendeleev

[sharp flame]

it really could go both ways

it does seem like you could link everything towards Descartes

[pure loom]

Yeah, I'm gonna dive into that rabbit hole for a bit

https://tenor.com/view/stuck-winnie-the-pooh-rabbit-hole-push-gif-5656393

[sharp flame]

yeah same

I think the big question, as always, is what format the answer is going to be in 😭

[timid solstice]

hmmm Galactic Coordinate system?

yep thats a thing

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galactic_coordinate_system

[sharp flame]

actually I've seen those

tried the one for the Copernicus Binary system and Descartes star but no luck

[pure loom]

I wonder if 110D831 comes into that?

[timid solstice]

110 days?

[latent peak]

Ive been checking 110D orbit planets but couldnt match them with 831

[sharp flame]

the term itself turns no search results at all

we might have to manipulate it a bit

maybe D = 4

maybe 110 is binary

Idk, there's a few things we can do to it

it does seem like the fact that the first three digits are 1s and 0s could be considered

[tulip matrix]

Did anyone notice the Z / N shape on NamaTama?

[sharp flame]

ooh I see it

[timid solstice]

I thought it was a sticker crease

could be a clue

[sharp flame]

it is a sticker crease

but also could be a clue

[tulip matrix]

Yeah to me it looks likke it's trying to hide in plain sight as a crease

Maybe it's just a tease at @pure loom for his Zorro idea in the FKramer Tier

[slender lodge]

wasnt there a Zoro 'Z' in the cloth in one of the ospuze one?

[thorny birch]

I've been thinking about what the (red) Brownian Noise and connecting that to Euclidian Space, which uses vectors. Pulling those things together I came across Brownian Motion (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownian_motion). Brownian Motion, or pedesis (from Ancient Greek: πήδησις /pɛ̌ːdɛːsis/ "leaping"), is the random motion (with velocity vectors) of particles suspended in a medium (a liquid or a gas). This got me thinking about the atmospheres of Neptune (unsure if Neptune is an actual clue at this point), Saturn, Titan, etc., and how we determine the elements of a given satellite (planet / dwarf planet) by interpreting how those elements bounce or reflect light. It is possible that the password is a translation of a shared atmospheric element of the stellar bodies that we believe we've been given clues for. This would also tie into our space exploration and observation clues.

[timid solstice]

another element answer back to back. hmm

[tulip matrix]

tier 1a and 1b were both date related

I suppose 1b and 1c could both be element related

Gerard Kuiper was the first to observe Titan's methane atmosphere using spectroscopy

[sharp flame]

Secchi seems really connected

[timid solstice]

These scientists and their inter welding

[pure loom]

He definitely made his mark

[sharp flame]

Do we reckon Secchi was there to point us towards Copernicus?

or maybe the Copernicus Binary star?

I think that if the double circle on the gun was intentional, then the binary star is definitely what it would be pointing towards

Just being hopeful here, but perhaps Copernicus is our Mendeleev

and perhaps the Star is our Mendelevium

Here's a reminder for some of the other unsolved clues.

[pure loom]

Thanks for posting this

Maybe the NamaTama ‘Z’ is a W with the left upright going between NamaTama’s eyes.

[latent peak]

Ah yep! I can see that

[thorny birch]

I wonder if NamaTama being next to / overlapping the Secchi disk means anything.

[timid solstice]

I’m seeing this now…

David Bowie reference?

[timid solstice]

Is the 4:8 the rule of thirds, phi grid lines or Euclid’s pythagorus theorem proof?

[latent peak]

The phi grid/fibonachi doesn't really line up with the mic pattern, which i think that theory came from ?

[timid solstice]

Interesting you called the tower “13 story stack”

Does it represent a 13 book stack?

[latent peak]

👀

Now when you say it, it kinda does look like that

[timid solstice]

Does the rule of 3rds fit better?

[thorny birch]

Could this have something to do with wavelengths? I was reading about the red/blue shift and how that happens because wavelengths are extended or contracted when we are observing extraterrestrial bodies.

I've got myself on this rabbit hole of thinking that this password has to do with the way we use light to observe space and determine the atmospheric makeup of stellar objects.

Atmosphere = Elements = Space (Haha)

[timid solstice]

I’m thinking we need to move away from Cecil Leith and stick with Virginia Leith… like @sharp flame said go with your gut

Meaning the atmospheric models / atmosphere link is out really

[latent peak]

Nah not really

[sharp flame]

I mean those lines are not thirds

but I think the golden ratio fits this better

[latent peak]

Ah yeah sorry that was the phi grid.
Rule of thirds does line up

[timid solstice]

those lines are the golden ration, its called a phi grid, so golden ratio doesn’t really fit

[sharp flame]

I think Fibonacci has a very real chance though

they're named after Italian mathematician Leonardo of Pisa

Kepler also contributes to the Fibonacci sequence stuff

And this Mathematician Pingala

living around possibly 325 BC too

who is credited with the first ever use of binary numbers

and the binary numeral system

(star reference..?)

[timid solstice]

yeah it still symbolises it for sure, just proportionately doesnt fit

[sharp flame]

Fibonacci and Euclid are really connected

[sharp flame]

10th?

yeah in hindsight it's really clear hahaha

Thats all I can see now

[sharp flame]

this is a very specific clue

Fibonacci

10th in the sequence?

Sputnik 1 was the first satellite ever

10th satellite?

[boreal trench]

Maybe planet X, the hidden 10th planet?

"There is no known Planet X or 10th planet in our solar system. Scientists have been looking for about a hundred years. It was believed that such a planet was required to explain the orbital characteristics of the outer planets Uranus and Neptune."

https://starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/StarChild/questions/question4.html#:~:text=There is no known Planet,outer planets Uranus and Neptune.

Or maybe Eris, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eris_(dwarf_planet)

[pure loom]

Book 10 proves the irrationality of the square roots of non-square integers (e.g. {\displaystyle {\sqrt {2}}}{\sqrt {2}}) and classifies the square roots of incommensurable lines into thirteen disjoint categories. Euclid here introduces the term "irrational", which has a different meaning than the modern concept of irrational numbers. He also gives a formula to produce Pythagorean triples.

Saturn’s 10th moon, officially named Janus in 1983, was the first satellite of the ringed planet discovered in the 20th century. It shares an orbit with the moon Epimetheus

Janus is a binary Moon, in a way, in that it shares an orbit with Epimetheus

That's interesting!

It also just might be another clue referring to Titan seeing as "Titan is the tenth-largest object in the solar system"

[pure loom]

Good spotting!

This is probably a longshot but could this be the answear to the O0o0 clue ?

I would be more convinced if Phoebe was more oval

@tulip matrix this symbol could be a depiction of Saturn rising over the horizon of Titan. Note that the bottom-right edge of the symbol is obscured

(I've added notes to the padlet alongside your empty set interpretation)

This is interesting as it includes both Huygens probe and interference, but I can't see where the rabbit hole could go to from here: The postimpact survival of the Huygens radio link has permitted a bonus bistatic radio experiment with uniquely constrained geometry. The fading pattern, physically interpreted as a multipath interference, contains information on the geometry of the probe and on the physical properties (particularly roughness) of an essentially otherwise unobserved part of Titan's surface in the vicinity of the Huygens landing site.

Cassini mentioned as part of a survey of the Paris Meridian arc

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_meridian

This is the Lambton mentioned in the line with the 110.631: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Lambton

[pure loom]

Maybe the interference lines thing is to show parallel lines, like the Paris Meridian Line and Greenwich Meridian?

Brown eyed girl. Red Caracter… Green Witch?

Greenwich is not the password (nor is greenwitch)

[pure loom]

Except lines of longitude aren’t parallel… nevermind.

man I wish I could lose track of time like that

[vital cove]

I have end-of-week tasks at work too so I actually can't lose track of time like that either

still happens

LOL

110D631

the final mystery

[vital cove]

831

[sharp flame]

Every fiber of my being says 6

however, every fiber of my being has been wrong a lot

[sharp flame]

to the asteroid yeah

don't think it's related to the 110D

unless you can connect them by naming

I tried to identify the asteroid with the 110 but to no avail

[vital cove]

Goddamnit

So confused rn

[pure loom]

I wonder if by “(831♥️)” the brackets meant “negate the 831” like an accountant shows negative numbers in brackets? It’s definitely a 6 when you look closely at it.

[sharp flame]

could be the case

but there's a heart with it too

plus Stateira is connected by the 404

[pure loom]

If you look at the left side of the 6/8 it doesn't have any indentation like an 8 does

maybe it's both

https://tenor.com/view/gollum-sneaky-little-hobbitses-lotr-hobbit-sneaky-gif-3537314

[sharp flame]

I think it's a 6 for sure

I also think that looking for Asteroids which Max Wolf discovered in Heidelberg might be wasting my time

his name appears 212 times within the first 999 asteroids

and all of those discoveries were at Heidelberg

oh my god

I totally missed this

Hi.!
Perhaps it's time for another wallpaper, or maybe you want some more time observe the previous two.?

T-59m

[sharp flame]

I think he's implying that we're close

like very close

maybe

I'm not sure

or that we haven't observed the previous 2 before

enough

yes

or maybe it's not quite finished yet 😂
