That's what I did when the LV-426 entry went missing

nice observation. after reading that, i decided to to a quick comparative analysis just now comparing the timeline in the wiki here:
http://bigthingshavesmallbeginnings.wikispaces.com/Weyland+Industries+Corporate+Timeline

to the current timeline:
https://www.weylandindustries.com/#/timeline

the ones at the top are from the current timeline and the ones at the bottom with the parenthesis to indicate what vertical they fall in are from the wiki.

... and, they still didn't change the misspelling of 'aquire' with a 'c'.

after re-reading your post, sorry i misunderstood. someone somewhere else was asking about the old morse gif(which was already solved awhile ago) and then i read your post again.

the flashing blue light in the video background of the timeline does appear to be something new, unsolved or being investigated by others. i know that the background video has been gradually different. i haven't looked into the spheres recently but someone might be better able to compare notes better. but to me the blue flashing in the sphere video is more prominent.


The blue light has been there awhile, I thought it was surmised that it was part of the "glitch" effect in After Effects? I don't think anyone's tried to look at it in morse code.

Yes, I did it, seems the code has bugs, not very noticeable of course...

No it's still there. I think it's because of a layout glitch - I have done a few reloads and sometimes the segments of the timeline run together and overlap each other.

EDIT: just did a reload on the timeline and got a bunch of segments running on top of each other, and the Yutani litigation segment is missing. Definitely a bug IMO.

this is also strange:
after deleting cache on google chrome browser and on safari again, an hour later, i see acheron still listed on safari but not on chrome now. yutani is still listed on both browsers.

since weylandindustries.com seems to be running on amazon's elastic cloud 2 servers, the update changes may still be taking effect or a new source code update is affecting browsers differently. i haven't had the time or chance to look into the source code behaviour to verify this theory. a closer inspection would be needed to verify this. and, meanwhile, things could still keep changing.

i replied earlier to the person on twitter. i checked it on two different browsers and still got the yutani listing in the timeline. i also see the acheron on may 14, 2039. (the morse code on the about page is already solved.)


it just takes awhile to scroll all the way down the timeline page perhaps because of the video background and other stuff is taking their time to load. the page doesn't load all at once; you have to keep scrolling down for another chunk to go through.

maybe the web server's load could be high(busy) that it's serving up pages rather slowly -either from many requests or even from the backend.

if only we could check the background processes because they could be working on something from the dev end or the server might need to be rebooted. or, it's a shared web server serving up other websites that are affecting server performance. high traffic 'net congestion. or, it could be on a nightly backup routine. any number of reasons.

the uk prometheus is a twitter-verified account and did clue us in to wait for the uk version of the trailer. it's possible that several people involved with the movie's promotion are using it, resulting in a mixture of posts. but i agree that it's best to remain skeptical & think critically along the way with the uk one.

Long time reader first time poster.
Weyland said they found the "exact coordinates" for the Project Prometheus. That means using a series of numbers that correspond to one of the ways of measuring the coordinates of planets...they then point to the 'Investors' page.

How about if the numbers associated with the mythical elements create a series of coordinates? EITR = 110 ADAM = 147 etc..? String them together to make Celestial Coordinates? Also include the two resources that have different values, COBALT & YTTRIUM ... possibly using both numbers from them... I think it's worth a try...and I'll get back to you when I have some data...

I was looking for clues to see which of the Celestial Coordination systems Weyland used, if any, but missed it on my first pass... just thought I'd pass my thoughts along tonight...

You guys are great! Very Happy Keep up the intellectual stimuli (or is it stimula) - lol
