After re reading that ... Which I always though was a red herring... You might actually have a point. I remember someone did some graphics with that - can anyone root them up? MaddogMurdock - you were around at the time - remember anything?

There is a strong chance that that was a previous "Failed" clue.

I remember writing it off as a red herring but an awful lot of people didn't. Can't remember if it actually led anywhere.

I got the same results from Buchli City in Mildeptu. Any information about that having been infected by UAs?
Also, I got some symbols by pulling a spectogram off an outpost, but I can't for the life of me remember which one. It had a large "beacon" with a red light on top of it, and there were some sounds coming off it that gave off some symbols when running it in Audacity. Nothing legible though, but not the same as from the Stations.

I think that probably sums up the fact that it's not related to the whole UA mystery then. Cheers.

Don't know what time zone you are in but it's time for bed now. There was a diagram of a stadium created showing positions...perhaps somebody can root around and find it?
 
Ok. Try to solve simple text puzzle. "For sale: two tickets for Thursday night's game. Section PR5, row 2, seats 5 and 6, dead centre, perfect viewing height. let me know".

This puzzle is link to merope system.

Has there ever been any conformation that this has anything to do with Merope?
 
There are so many sightings right there that I think there's a persistent geometry glitch that's especially bad- i think it's the same thing where you see stars and frameshift glow through the planet, but worse t usual because of that crater.

Happens every time you stay in orbital glide for an extended time.

I suspect the answer to both it be confirmed or otherwise is not yet. Meaning that there isn't anything yet to definitively say it's not anything to do with it either.

I have to ask myself, why that circular feature which is almost dead center in the picture not transfered or looked at ?

Is there a particular reason for it ? And if so, which one ?

Again, if this is already kind of "dismissed" as not important, excuse me for bringing it up again, but than i would like to understand why.
Because almost every post use picture number two as a reference or starting point for visualizing a theory.

However, that circular feature is clearly there, and i'm kind of certain (as far as this is possible), that it is there for a reason.
It was mentioned a while back as well, but nothing came of it. I also thought about it, but I have looked at it and to me it looks like it's a "bleedover" from the line (ie. the "fuzziness" that all parts of the image has).
To explain it better, I've made this image.
kL7SLCh.png
All the red parts cover the bleedover from the relevant parts of the image. You can see that the "globe" has bleedover/fuzziness on the inside and outside, while the lines can only have them on the outside. The two lines in the bottom left quadrant also has a "circular shaped fuzziness" at the ends of them.

The main reason why I think it's bleedover is the intensity of the circular are in the center. It is the same intensity as the "bleedover" not as the lines of the figure itself.
I hope that made sense.

EDIT: Ninja'd...and his picture was prettier than mine :(

The glow may very well be deliberate.
As you can see, the circles, the symbols - have the same glow.

It can be as you say for:
1. Deliberate purpose. Why?
a) Tell something to a specific viewer / audience - someone who know the specific meaning of it.
b) Or the random viewer, to Inform us that this may not be precise?

2. Not deliberate
a) It's not a decoding effect from Audacity or imprecise sound. More components would have the glow. We don't see this.
b) Did it happen before embedding due to rescaling / resizing? It's possible, I know a fair bit about that process.
c) Did the original material come from a different source than the rest of the material in the whole recording? Possibly.

3. Why isn't the grid having the glow?
a) Too thin, not heavy enough to make such an imprint?
b) was added later during the embedding process

Regardless - the Circle, symbols - seem to have been created as one entity.

Deliberate or not - we won't know that until we get it into the right context.
IMHO, discussing 'why the glow' without having a proper way to confirm it through testing won't cause anything but more noise while we fight to figure out the more comprehensive pieces. :)

To be honest - I think the whole delivery through a grainy image also just illustrates that we should try to dive too much into the details - too much grain.
This is deliberate - it's not meant for direct measurements.

However, to illustrate concepts and arithmetics. I'm still convinced that it is perfect to do just this.
If we understand what the concept we should be able to apply the correct parameters - based on a key we're still trying to find.

Good analysis - I think your conclusion is correct: direct measurements are probably not that valid.

And yeah - option 1 for me - it's deliberately indicative of a glowing display - but not our HUD. It might be *a* hud, but I don't think that's important.

I think once we understand the left hand image better, this glowing image will make more sense.
 
everywhere i go i see it....that circle just staring at me, mocking me. I went to a meeting at work this morning......drew one on my clipboard. Next I'll be making mountains out of mashed potatoes.............

:'D I laughed out hard which quickly turned into tears. Today at work I started asking my colleagues about the picture -yes it's my desktop wallpaper- and yes i hoped maybe fresh eyes see something in it. and ofc they see nothing just a hopeless maniac :D
 
Well, the point I'm trying to make is that the image is the clue and what the image looks is determined by whatever scaling factor if used for y=fn(x)

Anyone trying to determine angles from it needs to be absolutely sure that they have the correct scale, logically that is whatever makes the image exactly circular.

I understand, although I think more than one outcome by using different software is possible.
Vertical & Horizontal scaling is too fragile in this media presented to us.

With that fragile combination in mind, excuse me for repeating the big picture scenarios which we have discussed through #7 & #8
Exact derivation
A golden set of parameters need to be used. We're looking to measure the exact distance and degrees in the image.
- It should be software agnostic. Sonic Visualiser, Audacity, Xyz ...
- Pixel distortion may occur, making it much harder to analyse and almost impossible to pick the right solution without the key parameters.

Conceptual derivation
No need for a exact decoding specification, instead the image is a concept where you can do arithmetic without the having any concern for scaling.
As long as it's 'proportional enough' decoding a result may occur.
- A key may be required to understand some of the parameters.
- As long as you can see it, and measure the difference between components, you can derive what you need.
- This is a software agnostic method.

Single software requirement solution
Worst case scenario. A set of parameters requiring a very specific set of software and input such as parameters, mouse & keyboard.
- Audacity required, no other software & method will work.

We all have our gut feelings, let's keep cracking at it until we can connect the dots.
PS, not trying to silence you MDM, I hope you understand that :)
 
a guy talkin to kerrash in his stream said " 2 of the lines in the audio image appeared to piont to merope and you jus have to back engineer and everyone will know what will happen and where an when everyone get out there do yur home work" his words
 
Guys you need check merope 2a more detail. Try check dark side of moon.
Congratulations, you have posted today's least useful comment.

In fact, it's less useful than a pair of scissors made of wet paper.

Dude... check out thread 6. or was it thread 5?

Been there: done that, got the cloak of boredom.

I tend to believe one of the reasons Merope is important for the solution is, that the Feds are searching there as well. Obviously we are to find whatever there is to be found before any superpower does. (I think someone of FDev said that. It was mentioned in the last episode of Lave Radio Podcast).
 
for sake of a teory can someone take a 360 shot of the star map in merope? i'm heading there to do it , but is someone can spare me the trip would be great :)
 
So I am going to simplify this approach even further - as I agree completely with your assessment, we need to start of the MOST SIMPLE interpretation of the image.

1. The symbols around the sides are the order of the instructions - but they aren't a binary number system, they are just a really obvious pattern - 1 is bottom right, 2 is top left, 3 is bottom left, 4 is top right.
2. First step is a 135 angle which is the Argumant of Periapsis of Merope 5C - this is basically confirming the planet is Merope 5C and telling us that the alien knows how to depict an angle and that the sphere is the planet
3. This is a symbol for 'orbit' or 'fly to this planet and search'
4. These two lines, as you say, indicate a point on the planet. They stop abruptly at the planet's surface for a reason. And we read them by, as you say, measuring the angle from somewhere on the sphere - your interpretation is the best one I have heard to date.
5. This symbol indicates a 'scan' or sorts once we have the location. It could be we scan the point, or need the UP in tow for it to scan.

I really think this whole image is something like this. Just a simple image with some simple instructions.

I've been leaning towards this the whole time, even though the more complicated stuff is fun.
My guess for the two lines is that they're indicating an area to look at, either lat or long- instead of an exact point.
Alas, ADS honks by itself isn't cutting it- I've been over so much of that area just myself that it either takes more precision, more luck in stumbling onto it, or a UP.
