 		[Trailhead] Son of Somerset
Following an interesting little journey about UFOs and who knows. Chloe was given a set of photos and notes from her grandfather and they seem to have notes on the backs and other odd things in the photos themselves.

There are a lot of ways to follow things, but here are the three I started with

Chloe's Youtube Vlogs - https://www.youtube.com/user/sonofsomersetfiles

Chloe's twitter account - https://twitter.com/SonofSomerset

and tumblr - http://spirosunset.tumblr.com/ I am trying to figure out what the notes mean on the backs of the photos - here is the collection of them

http://spirosunset.tumblr.com/tagged/notes

thoughts on the meaning of the notes/photos?

On the blackboard is the Drake Equation:
Quote:
N=R*fp*ne*fl*fi*fc*L

N = The number of communicative civilizations

R* = The rate of formation of suitable stars (stars such as our sun)

fp = The fraction of those stars with planets. (Current evidence indicates that planetary systems may be common for stars like the sun.)

ne = The number of Earth-like worlds per planetary system

fl = The fraction of those Earth-like planets where life actually develops

fi = The fraction of life sites where intelligence develops

fc = The fraction of communicative planets (those on which electromagnetic-communications technology develops)

L = The "lifetime" of communicating civilizations


(Perhaps the "Reel deflouritey" phrases are attempts to pronounce the variables?)

(later edit to add)
And now that I'm looking at the full tumblr, not just the tagged photos, I see she knows it's the Drake Equation. Nevermind. Watching the videos now, not sure I'll follow it going forward.

 		just finished watching the videos, and had a look at the photos. There doesn't seem to be much to go on.

 		Still trying to decipher the notes and photos - new videos have been posted - here is the latest and it seems things are getting weird, both for Chloe in present and Terry's mother in the past.
