The opening chapters of 2061 gradually explain the events that have taken place in the interim years. The new sun, dubbed "Lucifer", has transformed the moons of the former Jupiter: Io has become a volcanic hellhole, Europa an ocean world shrouded by clouds, and Ganymede a temperate world that the human race is colonizing.

1637 Swings asteroid was named after Pol Swings From his study of cometary atmospheres, he is credited with the discovery of the Swings bands and the Swings effect. Swings bands are emission lines resulting from the presence of certain atoms of carbon; the Swings effect was discovered with the aid of a slit spectrograph and is attributed to fluorescence resulting partly from solar radiation.

In the Iseult image

Okay Huygens is strongly inspired by Descartes

#

So iirc that links our two sides now

boreal trench
#

Just wanted to put my theory out there, I think we need to be looking at Mars, here are all the things I've found that link Mars so far. First I think the eyes are a reference to David Bowie's eyes with the pupils being different sizes. I also think the brown eyed girl image had different-sized pupils as well.

eyes.png
#

We also have the lighting bolt symbol that is the exact same as the David Bowie one, even down to having the blue highlight on the left side.

David-Bowie.png
#

From there, I think we can link David Bowie and mars with two things, his character Ziggy Stardust who is from mars and he has a song called Life On Mars.

Next, I think 'Beside You' is referring to Mars being beside Earth.

Then I think a lot of the people we have been looking at all have pretty significant links with mars for example. The first telescopic observation of Mars was by Galileo and Kepler discovered that the orbit of Mars was an ellipse.

And finally
There is a lot of stuff about what would happen if Halley's comet hit mars and that if it did it would cause a much wetter Mars than we're accustomed to today. And then also in the same area, I think the water droplet is hinting at us looking for water on mars.

# pure loom How did you get to this in the first place?

Piet Hein didn't have a "Works" tab, which I usually skim when it comes to these people. "Recreational Mathematics" was the closest thing so I skimmed that. Superegg was what I posted first, cause, well eggs had been popping up a few times already.

#

Then I saw that the roundabout he designed with the egg shape was in Stockholm

#

so clicked on the roundabout

#

and then in the first paragraph it said it was named after a sculptor

#

so I went to his page

#

and then I went to "Works"

which, actually, didn't mention his Descartes statue at all 😭

You had to go to "Life" and scroll down to the very bottom

it's actually quite well hidden

The vesica piscis is a type of lens, a mathematical shape formed by the intersection of two disks with the same radius, intersecting in such a way that the center of each disk lies on the perimeter of the other.

A camera obscura (pl. camerae obscurae or camera obscuras; from Latin camera obscūra 'dark chamber') is a darkened room with a small hole or lens at one side through which an image is projected onto a wall or table opposite the hole.Camera obscura can also refer to analogous constructions such as a box or tent in which an exterior image is proj...

Helioscope

A helioscope is an instrument used in observing the sun and sunspots.
The helioscope was first used by Benedetto Castelli (1578-1643) and refined by Galileo (1564–1642). The method involves projecting an image of the sun onto a white sheet of paper suspended in a darkened room with the use of a telescope.The first machina helioscopica or helios...

interesting, could be the reference to the projected light on the characters

A lot of clues potentially do hover around photography though. The projections, crossed circles look like a convex lens, lens flares, the line diagram on the mic could represent a polarising filter too.

#

Even Huygens image from the surface of Titan was quite Box Brownie-like in its quality.

The Matrix being a movie has an indirect relationship to cameras as well.

Solar eclipses on Saturn occur when the natural satellites of Saturn pass in front of the Sun as seen from Saturn. These eclipses happen fairly often. For example, some of Saturn's moons can have a solar eclipse every day depending on the saturnian season.For bodies which appear smaller in angular diameter than the Sun, the proper, more general...

I got a new theory, not very wild actually, but certainly only half-baked. All the Saturn clues refer to the Roman God, and are meant to lead us to Cronus, its Greek equivalent. (He also uses a scythe). Cronus is a Titan (Titan clues), and also the King of Titans (Rex, like the T-Rex. Del Rey, like the 2061 book publisher. Both mean King). He's also the God of Harvest (Eggplant?). ~~There's also something about Phanes being born from Cronus' World Egg, but haven't had found much on it yet. ~~ [EDIT: It was Chronus] What convinced me the most about this theory is when I found an image... at first I thought it was Atlas, because he's carrying the world on his shoulders, but then I saw the scythe pointing to time (I think), did a little more digging and it looks as if it is Cronus indeed, and the best part is what's above him on the wall...our friend Nicolaus Copernicus 😅

I guess that if we get a NamaTama eating a mini-NamaTama, we'll know that we have to look as Saturn as a god and not a planet 😛

#

Do any of you know if Roman mythology has titans? I know a lot of their mythology was based on the Greek, that's why many things overlap. But was Saturn a "titan" in the Roman mythology as its Greek counterpart, Cronus, was. I thought titans (pre-Olympian gods) were only in the Greek mythology, but I've seen places that referenced Saturn as a titan too 😅

#

Basically, I understood that "Titans" was used to refer to pre-Olympian gods, and that Olympus is the place where Greek gods reside. My question is, are the Roman equivalent of those pre-Olympian gods also refered as "Titans" in the Roman mythology?

#

@fallen jasper I know you like history, not sure about mythology, maybe you know this? 🤔

I reckon this ties in a bit

I'm just not sure if it's Copernicus we should be looking at, or Descartes, or Euclid, or even Kepler

I feel like there's a singular thing which connects all four of them which we need to find

#

Using a bit of reasoning, I think we can rule out Kepler and Copernicus, since I don't think they'd put the signature of the key to the answer as a clue, seems too easy

#

That leaves Euclid and Descartes

#

I think we've had just as many references to both

Euclid early on, Descartes later

Im not sure if this is a specific connection

but I think the Scientific Revolution connects all of them (Aristotle and Descartes are mentioned here too)

Since we're speaking of exclusive societies anyway, might as well bring up that the Free Mason logo contains a compass. Archimedes and Euclide's weapon of choice.

sharp flame
#

Weapon 😂

#

Archimedes died wielding one after all haha

#

This is definitely not an excuse for me to learn more about freemasonry

#

Apparently the letter G often included with the Square and Compasses stands for either God or Geometry depending on who you ask. So there's that.

sharp flame
#

I think Astronomical Unit works well here too

#

Distance between the Earth and Sun

True that

The Grand Lodge of Ohio

#

oh wow

tulip matrix
#

Yeah no wonder it was so unknown to us

#

Ohio is basically another planet

#

A clue!

sharp flame
#

Oh my god 👀

#

It can't be a coincidence that 404 has showed up again

#

but...

#

certainly it can't...

Members of the Grand Lodge of Ohio when a group of sweaty gamers burst through their door wailing of sentient eggs and Saturn:

I guess because it would lead us to the wrong elements if the word was actually hinted and would throw us off... even more

sharp flame
#

Hmm perhaps

#

Yeah actually you're right

#

I don't think The Elements is a form of the answer directly however it seems pretty close

timid solstice
#

btw alt code 47 is / ... maybe a forward slash meaning look at a certain website or url

sharp flame
#

ooooh

#

you might be right there

timid solstice
#

perhaps we missed something

sharp flame
#

I suppose if there was a URL, there's no way we'd ever get it since nobody is trying URLs

#

and this is their way of hinting it

#

but... there are so many possibilities and it seems weak enough a connection that I don't think we'd be able to guess it

That just opens the whole World Wide Web as an answer, no biggie 😛

I wonder if the eyes emote reaction is a play on the joke/trick "what does "e y e s spell ? " and people say "E yes!?"

#

I will now read it as "E Yes"

neon stream
sharp flame
#

is what we've used so far ^^

#

just found out the cross makes an in-game appearance haha

#

I wonder if the red X has a hidden meaning

sharp flame

It wasn't in the game during the beta

take the survey...

#

Oh right, then I don't remember it from back then haha

#

only when it came back in the... thing

#

yeah don't think so

#

by the way, what were previous URLs that worked?

timid solstice
#

what do you mean?

sharp flame
#

yeah those

#

uhh yeah

#

that again

terse ivy
#

how do u get devoncrosssing as a answer

sharp flame
#

They appeared as clues

#

in coded form

terse ivy
#

is devon crossing like a road or smthing

sharp flame
#

Just translated them and they said Devon and Crossing

terse ivy
#

ah alr

sharp flame
#

William Crossing, from Devon

proud minnow
terse ivy
#

cus without that it is very specific

sharp flame
#

I wonder if we've been missing URLs this entire time cause nobody was typing them in

timid solstice
#

back when we didnt know ANYTHING could be the answer

sharp flame
#

Maybe if we just typed "Kramer" as a URL we mightve gotten something

latent peak
#

When Dusty mentioned 47, Rob followed up with a message excluding "o" in "not". Maybe those missing letters might be useful for the url ?

sharp flame
#

wait

#

Minefield

#

how could we miss that

#

1s and 0s

#

binary

#

binary systems?

terse ivy
#

they want us to play minesweeper

#

i volunteer

timid solstice
#

minefield could be like an asteroid field

sharp flame
#

could be

#

it seems weird to use "mine" though

#

these aren't very explosive

timid solstice
#

the clues are... they make our heads explode

sharp flame

hahaha
