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.

hook, line, and sinker... so sad...
 
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 :)

Half of the things I bring up are more to assist, try and clarify, or questin other theories that seem popular.
E.g. My doubts about the binary/morse due to the symbol differences.

It's the same thing here, people are using angles to determine coordinates and directions and we're not even sure the image is scaled properly.
I'd strongly prefer option 2 as well - that the image is conceptual and doesn't require precise measurements.

But given that I've got nothing new myself, I'll try and explore the logic offered elsewhere.

I'm still claiming the Murdock Meridian though - that's good science whether it helps solve this mystery or not ;)
 
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.

why does that make him an idiot lol hes already got the answer

It's a great name either way. Written forever in history. You earned it MadDog.

If I had a single cell for every person that announced they had the answer without explaining exactly how, and what, I'd have a lifesize model of Tetsuo Shima post-gross transformation.

(hint: look up 'Akira Tetsuo Transformation')

He knows nothing - he's just speculating, or repeating one post he's read here out of context before going on his mate's stream.

I'd bet the left hemisphere of my brain on it.

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.

My point was more that if you say "linked to Merope" with that clue, it's very hard to get your brain to think outside of the box with it, it leads you down the path... like Merope, 5, b, 5&6 dead center? Maybe PR5 instead means "Pleiades Region 5" etc. or maybe this was just a test message in the Beta and someone grabbed a random text off a Reddit post they were reading at the time while looking for Hockey tickets?

step one: use log
step two: make circle a circle
-drops mic-

I hear what you're saying kinda but I think we are already there. Still not convinced we should be doing any geometry on this thing that needs so much precision that it's not good enough to just scale the thing in audacity or photoshop so the circle is the same height and width and not an egg

I know, and that's why it's so delightful to have a sensible discussion with you and many others in the team.

So true, it *is* official from what I heard. All my images are imprinted with the MDM meridian now :D

well both he and kerrash know the answer so believe what you must cmdr
 
So I tested a theory that the planetary map "rings" with the lines sticking out would somehow point out the surface locof something ( as they matched the lines of the lower left quad of the sonogram).A few hours later, goy some arsenicand yttrium, but nothing else found but a few cargo drops and a wrecked ship or two.

Will try again soon.
 
Science plience...Mr Zoltan mentioned Naval gazing........what if the Probes etc come from philosophers? After all they are all round and squishy looking, not hard edged like scientific stuff

That would be Navel gazing...

Naval gazing would involve a Capital Ship.
