some of these are a hairline difference from the next. others appear to be right at the same level, hence the grouping in the same line.

I was about to post the same thing but I used the actual pixel widths to get the order. I listed the number of pixels but I'm not sure if that is screen dependent or not:

 		On a research note;

Quote:
Tritium(Redirected from Tridium)

Tritium also known as hydrogen-3) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. The nucleus of tritium (sometimes called a triton) contains one proton and two neutrons, whereas the nucleus of protium (by far the most abundant hydrogen isotope) contains one proton and no neutrons. Naturally occurring tritium is extremely rare on Earth, where trace amounts are formed by the interaction of the atmosphere with cosmic rays.

The name of this isotope is formed from the Greek word "tritos" meaning "third".


Quote:
Definition of triduum from Merriam-Webster's online dictionary:

a period of three days of prayer usually preceding a Roman Catholic feast


Quote:

What is the Easter Tridium?

The Easter Triduum (also known as the Holy Triduum or Paschal Triduum) is the period that covers the evening of Maundy Thursday to the evening of Easter Sunday and it is when Christians celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.


All are related to the number 3. But have different meanings.

The anomalies from the Weyland "Periodic Table"
-Module 1.6 PRIMARY RESOURCE KEY

These do not fit in the real Periodic Table. This is what has been added by Weyland. These are teh references we need to research on. IMO.

Bear in mind that it's listing "Resources" and breaks them into three categories - Minerals, Fuels, Water. So it's not saying they're elements.

 		To try something else, if you list the resources with prime number keys you get (in numerical order) 13 29 31 47 73 79, or AL CU GA AG TA AU.

Maybe someone can see something in that I can't yet.

 		Hello everyone, my first post. Been lurking.

I was just wondering if anyone noticed the discrepancy between the Tx on the website Primary Resource Chart and the resource chart that you can download.

On the website its Tx 627

On the downloadable jpg its Tx 621

 		Re: Background
The hastening of orbs
Jumping back into the uF fray after some time away (since SUPER Cool, hello all.

Adding my congrats to everyone breaking the PROMETHEUS codes so far, well done! Now to the usual challenge of keeping up with all the players going forward.

Minor addition to something I saw posted:

FTL? Is this meant to be a interstellar map of sorts and were moving toward our destination? almost like a forward view from a cockpit?


Perhaps more likely a virtual trip through the stars, as in the holographic 'galaxy map' shown in the first trailer rather than a physical view from a cockpit? That seems to be an important step in the Prometheus project on the film side. Just a guess.

nice catch.

i've seen a minor spelling discrepancy (manganese/maganese). i should probably take a break & wait a bit until they straighten things out, , , ,

 		Also I've been looking at this Weyland Employees map and I keep wondering where Antartica is. Wasn't there supposed to have been something done on the poles? I guess I figured there would have been a population down there if we were so technologically advanced.

 		If anyone would find it useful, I've transferred the data over to a spreadsheet at http://bit.ly/weyland which can be accessed and edited by anyone. All I've done so far is highlight that ones that someone mentioned before had been added by Weyland. It just might make it easier for everyone to use rather than having to back track through pages. I'll put it in my signature so it's always on a page.

EDIT: Whatever edits you make, make sure you tell us about them in here.
