The bottom left symbol doesn't fit a Gray Code. That isn't a 1 bit transition from either direction.
It's all a bit beyond my understanding, but for proper transitions, the bottom left would be - - -

No idea if that strengthens or weakens the case.

I definitely think it's the strongest interpretation I've seen so far, I just wish I really understood it!

My I offer my sincere apologies. I do believe in my solution posted in simple form at post 5333, and i tried to put it simpler at post 5390. I remain convinced the bottom right panel is an alien face adjacent to a human face. Post 5412


I promise not to post again this theory unless there is incontravertable proof. I would like to thank the community for their extended patience with my enthusiasm. If this is correct, the idea is the product of the community, i would not have got there on my own. Tinfoil hat salute. '


Bosch Out.

Has anyone been able to check on the experiment that I suggested? I know you are tackling the purpose of the UP right now but we still have not determined if the visual data has any impact on what the key unlocks. Even if the UP is used to find out the content and make up of a given system, then finding out its true purpose or tracking back to its source would be almost impossible. So far only 3 UP have been found and how many billions of systems would we need to check to find the correct one.

We need to be working on both portions of the problem in order to see how they correlate. I am trying this from a practical approach so we know that the images in the soundclip are a representation of something that exists in our spacetime. I have re linked my latest experiment. I have very limited time during the week and have not been able to test myself.

If anyone has the time, can they fly out to 2A and see if this idea is plausible/useful?

can you summarize what the actual test would be?

Oh yes that's a good point, it's not designed to transmit random numbers - but specifically to transmit sequential numbers.

Scratch that then :)

Ok, I'm not quite sure where this leads but I do think this Gray Code is a hot trail.
Set aside the top right symbol for now and consider the other three.

They each represent the three 'bits'.
Can the corresponding circle features represent the bit transitions?

Pitch, yaw, and roll?

No idea how that helps!?

I'm at those coordinates on 5c and there's nothing there for me either. Fluke maybe? I do find it easy to believe there's something in this giant hole though....
Click to expand...

Those were just the second coordinates. The first time I landed at the poi, my srv fell through the planet so I had to restart. Had to fly up 4 km to see that the POI had moved slightly north of my position. If I can find it again tonight, I would love a UP to be brought to the area to shut down whatever COULD POSSIBLY be cloaked in the megacrater, this revealing it. Perhaps it's a bug. Time will time either way.

After some googling it turns out there is a very common binary code schema that does not have more than 2 consecutive 1's or 0's
(as we see in the UP tuba data stream). It's call Manchester Code. And was used by Voyager 1.
Click to expand...

It's not Manchester Code, was one of the first things I thought of and tested the other night.

The Merope sequence contains: ^^oo^oo^oo^^

Split into two that would be ^^ oo ^o o^ oo ^^, and neither ^^ or oo are valid.

Offset by one, then split into two, it would be ^o o^ oo ^o o^ - still contains the invalid oo.

Interesting.

It gives different numbers for the 4 symbols (if treating all as 3-bit gray codes) - 3, 2, 7, 1 reading top-left -> bottom-right
Click to expand...

Directly translating from a Wikipedia article referring to 7-bit integers won't make sense (meta-foil hat on: unless that's as lazy as the devs were).

The point of a Grey Code is that you sequence things by only changing one bit; imagine it like a Piano - you can play any three keys together, but you can only change one key each beat.

(I do the intersection of radio and programming for a living ;p)

So after reading the updates on the front page, are we aware that it seems Merope 5c is not the intended planet to search since what Michael has said about the Unknown Probe?

Any suggestions on which planet to concentrate on next?

Maybe Lucifer in Sirius?
Click to expand...

I was in Sirius yesterday, and I noted that Lucifer is covered in many craters similar to the prominent one on Merope 5c. No real canyons to speak of though.

I've turned my attention back to Merope 2A for the moment. There's something very strange about it, from its look and from a description in a mystery subreddit posting in /r/EliteDangerous from a now-deleted Redditor giving an account of strangeness and singing canyons. Tinfoil is in full effect here!

Ok so I'm working on the idea that it's a map of barnards loop area of space.
I know they have been permit locked for a long time now but I could still get around the permit locked systems.
I have gone back today to have another look but I'm pretty sure it's been tightened up.

i have been looking for a few hours now to get in but I can't.
If you face gal map so the core is behind barnards loop there is actually quite an obvious line of permit locked systems.
Im starting to think this is a cordon to keep us out or something in.

Now looking at the probe diagram I was looking at the area furthest from the bubble on the other side of the nebulae
and there is a small grouping of systems within the permit locked area almost exactly where the line is pointing if I line it up with the bubble. My train of thought is its a map to get to where we need to be to gain access behind the "security cordon" Call me crazy but I will keep pursuing this and I will let anyone know if I find anything.

I am also assuming this is hair brained but hey try anything right.

I've had a few strange "not normal" scanner burst noises when doing a flyby of some of the planets in Merope, I thought it was background noise at first but it seems to happen at certain points when lapping the planets.

I'm gonna investigate a bit further on my days off.

I know I'm late here, and don't know Canonn from Adam, but I've heard tell and speculation that the Merope system is really odd for how unremarkable it is. In terms of orbits, eccentricity, ellipticals, etc.

I know there was speculation that Merope was a constructed system.

Halsey claimed she spoke to "Architects" right?

Where was her pod picked up, and has anyone tested there?

It was never stated where her pod was found as it was a community goal for escape pods to find her heres the link below.

Its been established that its a PROBE so they tend to seek out things.

The only place we've found them were in human possession so that means they probably were initially found in the bubble. It also means that it is probably probing towards the bubble.

Also we know it can detect life. So logic dictates this probe is looking for a life based planet in or near the bubble that matches that schematic.

  • There are only about 95 Earth Like Worlds under 1900LY from Earth.
  • There are only about 60 Water worlds within 1200LY from Earth
  • There are only about 25 Gas Giants with water based life within a reasonable distance from Earth .


Best guesses are this:
  • I believe the top left quadrant represents ATMOSPHERE of 2 which in the periodic table is Helium.
  • I believe the top RIGHT quadrant represents radiation coming from outside which means a star luminosity of a type 3 which is a GIANT
  • I have no clue about the bottoms but I would think they would describe the exact planet a little more.

Never mind, I forgot how to binary. Here is a nice binary joke instead

There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.
