Sorry about that;

That is a field in Bonham, the place where the train was headed toward, or away from.

Look at the top left.


The train was headed to Wright Patterson AFB from Area 51. The word BONHAM on the side of the cargo compartment doesn't necessarily mean it made any stops in Bohnam, TX. It could have come from Bohnam AFB.

You see the number 121?
Go up a bit, and left a bit.

The burnt out field is up and left of the number.

To touch on the phases prediction earlier...

Took a couple astronomy classes and to touch on the phases prediction earlier...

the eclipse within the .gif on the website looks like a solar eclipse, i.e. the moon moving between the sun and earth, thus, blocking out the sun. This is only possible when the moon is in its new moon phase...

...or if it is a lunar eclipse then the moon has to be full.

Not sure if this has anything to do with predicting when the website will open, but maybe it can take us in a different direction?

I went with my screen name...that way, should we end up 'biting the asteroid belt' in a botched mission, at least there will be plenty of reference material available for my eulogy... Wink

Exactly, so it couldn't possibly be an eclipse. If the sun were behind it, how could light be shining on the crescent that we see? I think the artist was just going for that glowy, atmospheric affect when he put that light area around the moon, to make it look either like the air was a little hazy, or to make the moon look a little brighter. An Eclipse of this moon is not possible unless there are two suns in the system (OMG Tatooine? STAR WARS Prequel Prequel?) Just Kidding.

If you scroll down http://www.mreclipse.com/Special/SEprimer.html there is a list of all solar eclipses between now and 2014. Hmm...

And a moon phase calendar for good measure. http://www.calculatorcat.com/moon_phases/moon_phases.phtml

22 stars . . .

Sorry if someone posted this already . . . I tried searching and it seemed no one had.

As for the 22 stars I found out through the number 22 wiki page that there are 22 stars in the Paramount logo.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/22_(number)

It may mean something more or it might just be a nod to the studio that will be distributing the film:

http://www.imdb.com/company/co0023400/
check out film 27. under the distributor filmography.

Again sorry if someone already posted this. Hope it helps.

Hey folks,

So I cut out the free coupon to send to Minot and then I thought, why not overlay the paper with the cut out hole over the second page. The box highlighted a certain part of the article:

"It is also true, as Mr. Khrushchev would agree, that nations cannot afford in these matters to rely simply on the food faith of their adversaries. We have no, therefore, overlooked the risk of secret violations".

The cut out area also highlights the "TRAFFIC LIGHTS" but it cuts off any of the text and thus makes it illegible.

Just out of curiosity has anyone done the maze? Does it make a weird symbol?
