#

Ok damn. Good find Amanes.

rich blaze
#

You can see me breaking down after I found that maybe it wasn't for earth or at least maybe it had interesting info

celest pagoda
#

Gotta say though, itll be kinda funny if the violent clusterfuck that is Alpha Planet is located in a place with such a peaceful sounding name

rich blaze
#

Cause the two sea coordinates weren't that interesting

celest pagoda
#

How far is that place from Earth?

rich blaze
#

Around 3800 ly at worst

analog frigate
#

we can check for any star systems with known exoplanets there

rich blaze
#

The nebula is the product of only One supernova

#

and the star that resulted from it is a white dwarf, any planet would likely go undetected because of the gasses

solar nova
#

The central star, a white dwarf, was identified in 2009, using the upgraded Wide Field Camera 3 on board the Hubble Space Telescope. The star has a current mass of around 0.64 solar masses. It is surrounded by a dense equatorial disc composed of gas and dust. This dense disc is postulated to have caused the star's outflows to form a bipolar structure similar to an hourglass. This bipolar structure shows features such as ionization walls, knots and sharp edges to the lobes.

analog frigate
#

hmm true

rich blaze
#

We only detected the white dwarf in 2009, which makes detecting a planet even more unlikely

analog frigate
#

it doesn't seem unlikely that they would pick such a place for the location

#

the issue is that it doesn't have any special qualities

#

just a random nebula

celest pagoda
#

Maybe the log that is to release later today will give us some direction

rich blaze
# analog frigate just a random nebula

It is known as one of the brightest Nebulas and also, its explosion dates from after the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event which supposedly brought the artifacts in the Chixculub crater

holy shit man that’s such a good idea

not necessarily, like I have speculated before, it is very possible that the meteor did not come from destination alpha.

as far as i know they dont loose their memory when they get back up, when finishing missions, there was suppose to be a reaction from the audio logs during r5a2 but apparently it bugged so we couldnt hear them

Ms. Klein,

I recommend only using Tau gen until we have fully investigated the
issue with Sigma gen. The Pretoria lab is running some tests on our
GOs and our remaining Sigmas to isolate the behaviors you mentioned.
A few questions:

1. Can you send photos of the self-harm you indicated with 0-2056?
   We need to confirm if the scarring is indiscriminate or
   definitely religious. Our records show this operative has
   exhibited similar behavior before, despite multiple resets.
2. The head banging behavior is known in toddlers, but we did not
   see that behavior in any of the Genesis Operatives. Does it start
   immediately after resuscitation, or after some period of time? I
   would like video evidence for the records and a more detailed 
   report please.
3. Can you send me a list of the operatives you marked as faulty and
   sent to recycling? We track both organ and tissue stocks here so
   we can trace the history should we need it.```

subtle verge
rose hinge

The resurfacing behavioral patterns has been a recurring theme in a lot of logs. They don't retain memories, but they exhibit behaviors in line with their "pre-Legion" personalities that they themselves aren't aware of. Usually the program sticks them in an HSU for an extended period to get rid of it and start over.

subtle verge
#

We call it 'Chad Theory' as a running joke.

it takes up to almost a year for the initial HSU proccess to be complete

#

TL;DR - The prisoners are preserved in the HSUs. Right before we drop into a mission, the startled deep breath is us "waking up" and our body, for a lack of a better term, is jumpstarting itself from stasis. When we do drop, we drop into the giant 2km hole mechanically, however we've pointed a few times that it's feasibly impossible to drop for so long at the speed we do, so we just imagine that we're maneuvering through certain pathways to reach whatever area we need to be in.

When we finish the mission, it's assumed that the pods come back, we climb back in, and we're taken back to the surface or wherever the HSUs are stored until the WRDN needs us again. Coupled with the plethora of logs that have zero reference to any sort of cloning technology, we can safely assume that cloning or memory swapping simply doesn't happen or exist.

WHY DO YOU DO

solar nova
# manic shuttle so its still a theory then?

It seems very unlikely that chad theory is false rn. There's no evidence of clones or memory swapping or anything of the sort.

"Congressional Requesters report" is the log that defines what "KSO" means, and it seems to refer to anyone kept in hydrostasis and managed by BIOCOM.

The only thing that really gets me about this email is that it reveals that they chose Scaheffer based on his compatibility with the Legion program, but it also states that he's "recalcitrant, defiant, and rebellious" which is the exact opposite of what they want.

Davies and Clinton seem to be the reason why he was let in

eternal talon
#

it says C tier or below

so it could be his candidacy for legion

rich blaze
#

No

rose hinge
#

I mean there's a pretty blatant censored section that is most likely Legion-related

rich blaze
#

I think C tier and below encompasses C D and E

which is about a lot of people

solar nova
rose hinge
#

This is a hiring application for a normal job, though. All of the uncensored references are for his mining supervisor role.

rich blaze
#

For example Doctors are C

subtle verge
#

I'd assume that they allowed him in due to the second line of psychiatric results. Obstinate meaning that when he's made up his mind, he's going to do that specific thing.

the anomaly is that it's an overridden re-review to forcibly hire him

yeah

solar nova

#

damn, schaeffer's in his 50s?

he doesn't sound like it at all

quartz harness

thats what one guy in the convo is saying, that why re-review the application if the guy was denied already

manic shuttle
#

He old

rich blaze
#

note that HSU stops aging

subtle verge
#

So, feasibly speaking, if he were to become a KSO, he'd have the perfect trait to do what his "mind," AKA the Neural Link, told him to do.

eternal talon
#

or 29 depending on how fast they can intergrate him into legion

rich blaze
#

31*

#

he was free until at least 2053

#

as a pit boss

eternal talon
#

also where does it say it stops aging all together?

#

while inside maybe, but they wouldn't keep him in an hsu forever

subtle verge
#

HSUs put the entire body into stasis, i.e. all function of the body just stops.

#

Down to the cellular level.

eternal talon
#

while in stasis yes

rich blaze
eternal talon
#

but they wouldn't hire him to keep him in stasis 24/7/365

rich blaze
#

They hired him as a pit boss

eternal talon
#

he would still age

rich blaze
#

he became a KSO after the 2053 incident

eternal talon
#

just slightly slower

rich blaze
#

at an unknown date

eternal talon
#

so he'd still probably be in his late 40s

This application is also labeled as 2050, he'd be 28 by this time.

we also don't even know if planet alpha is in the butterfly nebula

so rn i'm about 80/20 in favor of the atlantic

subtle verge

I also don't think the Stokes are partners, there's no real indication of that form of affection in their communication.

solar nova
subtle verge
#

It appears to me more sibling love than partner level.

subtle verge

But that's looking at it at face value.

rich blaze
#

The complete different readings we have would tell me otherwise but fair

I had the same view as you Punk ye

subtle verge

It's also possible that it's kept that way since it's going through a work email, though, right?

eternal talon

also relationships generally speaking aren't allowed at work

we never really had a good look at the "moon"

but it could be

analog frigate

it can't

gamma radiation would kill you if it was that big in the sky

#

big as in close

eternal talon
analog frigate
#

also it would be much much brighter

analog frigate
#

pretty bright but this is more

eternal talon
analog frigate
#

it's more reflective

#

i'm not sure what it can be, but no way for it to be another star

analog frigate
#

that's no moon

eternal talon
#

it is really, REALLY bright

solar nova
serene fractal
#

I don't really see why it having radiation would prevent it from being a star if the planet has a sufficient magnetosphere

eternal talon
#

yes, but our atmosphere is nowhere near that thick

#

and it doesn't appear that thick during b1 during the day

analog frigate
#

about the same as moonlight

#

if it's a star, it would already be much more luminous

eternal talon
#

i don't know where your living, that is like 300% maybe 400% brighter than the moon

analog frigate
#

and for it to appear that big in the sky, it would be like daytime

serene fractal
eternal talon
#

it's also very blue

#

like, bright blue in terms of the color light it reflects

subtle verge
#

To be fair, our moon isn't actually all that bright. It's one of the least reflective objects in our solar system. It's only so bright because everything around us is so dark and blocks intervening light.

analog frigate
# serene fractal

that does make sense when taking into account the coords for the nebula we got

#

but still, even with a proper magnetosphere, it would be chaos

eternal talon
# eternal talon c1 and d1

because this is not that dark, at all. where on earth it gets to be pitch black, you can see here clear as daylight

manic shuttle
analog frigate
#

actually it really fits with the nebula we found

serene fractal
#

Why is it assumed that we had any intention of staying at Destination for prolonged periods? I still don't see how the radiation discredits the idea

eternal talon
analog frigate
solar nova
#

Seems like it was used for transport, and possibly other purposes. We have no idea what the plants in the grow beds are even for.

analog frigate
#

also there isn't any harmful radiation since durant never mentioned anything

eternal talon
#

oxygen?

#

i talked to a mechanic of 40 years the other day, the ventilation system in Garganta that we have seen is sooooo extremely unrealistic with all the vehicles we find down there

subtle verge
#

Have you considered that it might just be electric based?

eternal talon
#

ventilation shafts would need to be at least 6ft across and huge pumps would be needed all the way to the surface

eternal talon
#

vetalation system is lacking

eternal talon
solar nova
#

Yo, I'm having a hard time confirming the gamma ray thing?

eternal talon
#

also occam's razor

analog frigate
#

i doubt durant would keep out the fact that there is high quantities of radiation

#

it's not something undetectable

#

and he did mention the hazards on the planet

eternal talon
#

and he didn't specify what they were.

serene fractal
#

Considering that we have coordinates pointing to the butterfly nebula, at the center of which is a white dwarf, which is known to be a very hot star and have been on a planet that is very dry with a sky that appears to be lit by the same color wavelength of a white dwarf, it's a pretty solid theory

eternal talon
#

ehhhh

#

i think you guys are leaning a ton on the butterfly nebula

serene fractal
#

Well not solid, but not dismissible without consideration

harsh saffron
eternal talon
#

do you know how many nebulas there are?

#

an infinite number of them

serene fractal
#

And yet we landed on one that is not only named, but relatively close?

eternal talon
#

i could point at the sky right now and point to the exact center point of an entire galaxy

#

nebulas don't even have any planets, do they?

harsh saffron
#

Yeah but the chances of it being the exact coordinates that you can find online or just landing at some outer edge of some nebula is a difference

eternal talon
#

aren't they just giant clouds of gas?

harsh saffron
#

its a planetary nebula

#

yeah but this one has planets inside the gas cloud

eternal talon
#

also wouldn't these exact coordinates be in the middle of a star?

harsh saffron
#

no idea but I would assume so

eternal talon
#

so you are thinking a planet being in THE CENTER OF A SUN would be more likely than just in the ocean somewhere?

#

that is what i have issue with

#

i don't see it as likely

harsh saffron
#

well we dont know what the coordinates are for and I would assume its easier to give us coordinates of the nebula instead of a specific planet

eternal talon
#

GTFO doesn't give us straight answers, that's been the case since forever

finite vine
eternal talon
#

how do you know the coordinates aren't wrong? has someone fact-checked them?

finite vine
eternal talon
#

what if the base64 that ALL OF THIS is based on is wrong

#

we literally can't know

solar nova
finite vine
solar nova
#

That it's exact coordinates for an object in the sky is itself incredibly unlikely.

eternal talon
#

what's even special about this place?

harsh saffron
#

it looks cool

#

and it has planets

eternal talon
#

well that's not a reason for anything

analog frigate
serene fractal
#

Does there have to be anything special about it? As far as I know this conversation has been solely about what some coordinates might point to and then the significance will be pieced together later

eternal talon
#

ray was SO SURE of the coords on day 1 though

analog frigate
eternal talon
#

he even posted his math

harsh saffron
#

well the coordinates were correct

#

Amanes just figured out it might not be for earth

solar nova
serene fractal
#

I'm pretty new here so maybe I'm missing something but I don't understand why you're so adamant it couldn't be coordinates to a nebula?

eternal talon
#

c1 isn't us boiling alive and our skin melting

solar nova
#

A non-garbage result from some decoding process is genuinely extremely unlikely.

#

Especially when the decoding process is chaotic, as many of the steps are.

eternal talon
#

and i'm not saying it can't be

serene fractal
#

Who said C1 was directly at the coordinates?

eternal talon
#

i'm saying i don't think it's likely because of that reason

harsh saffron
solar nova
harsh saffron
#

Not my best example but still

eternal talon
#

i didn't think my skills with base64 would be relavant, but it turned out to be the key to cracking the cypher

#

i just, i don't know what to think of it

serene fractal
#

It's also important to remember that... We don't know exactly what's going on at the center of the nebula. There's a whole bunch of hot gas being lit up by ultraviolet radiation there. That's where the fiction part of science fiction comes in

eternal talon
#

they say extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, is it that wrong that i just want a little more? if true, this is massive.
