It must be something to do with the order of the numbers on the card as they seem a little out of sequence. You'd normally number top to bottom, but the numbers are out of sequence as you look up the card. I've tried connecting them with relevence to the sudoku, but all I keep coming up with is what looks like a conductors baton movement (but I know nothing about music)

I thought I had it, but then I lost it.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I was looking at moon cycles, seeing if this was the order in which they'd complete their cycles, but I don't see where to go next.

Well, I must be not using a part of my brain...

I have tried many different theories based on the clues above, but I am still not coming up with anything remotely close to an answer.

Maybe someone could PM me another hint?

I'd been mislead by the trail into thinking there was an anagram that could be solved just by looking at the spreadsheet. This clue may be giving it away a bit, but I was stuck at the same point for days, so don't look if you don't want a big nudge.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
If you look at the list of moons that comes out of the spreadsheet, you'll see there's a repeating pattern for the first three groups of four. Select the three odd moons from those 12. The pattern breaks down a bit for the last four, but you can probably guess the correct fourth moon. Put them together and hey presto a solve.
