i think i got it the basics of this COMPLETE THE FILE FIND SIG GIOVAN

the cipher key is nsam55

now according to the Vigenčre cipher there is a key a plaintext and a cipher text
so maybe you have to do something like this

COMPLETE THE FILE FIND SIG GIOVAN
nsam55na sam 55ns am55 nsa m55nsa

then find the cipher text or that is the cipher text and find the plaintext...

COMPLETE THE FILE FIND SIG GIOVAN does not need to be deciphered.

So it's something else with Sig Giovan. Not necessarily the Vigenčre cipher.

Also, who else has noticed that you can reset the password to gknova6SPLATgmail.com if you get the secret answer correct?

It hasn't been like this for the previous transmissions. I've tried every time.

The secret question is "What is NOVA 6??"



allthough now that i think about it that wouldnt be used there..
(iTs Late and im blazed give me a break)
but for some reason i think we have to use the Vigenčre cipher...
it says complete the file find sig giovan...
and when you find him you find the Vigenčre cipher...
since everything else has been different ciphers i dont see why this wouldnt be the same...

Perhaps we'll need the Vigenčre cipher for this transmission. But you certainly do not need it to decipher COMPLETE THE FILE FIND SIG GIOVAN, which is written in plain English.

If there's a ciphertext later on in the transmission, the Vigenčre cipher will definitely be tried.

Nope, I'm wrong. They just logged into gknova6SPLATgmail.com because they don't want us to reset the password.

 		Transmission 5
Right. Good work people but. I check last night, nothing. I go to school and check the forum now and i have missed like 4 pages of info. I cant check gknova six atm because its blocked by the school proxy. I lol'ed when it was blocked because of "Games". The IT department knew all along. Anyways when i get home ill try and mull things over and see what i come up with. I need a computer in my shower, always a good place to think.
And now i just realised that you guys are all asleap or at work so this message is kinda void.

 		BTW, my take on this is we need to complete this document to find the info we need. Maybe it's posted somewhere, maybe we have to figure it out ourselves somehow, but that's what I believe we need to do. I'm convinced that this is a Vigenere cipher... just need to find what's encrypted!

Maybe Not but that leaves a mess to anagram, Nova Sig Ig, Nova is giig...

Someone needs to double check Perdi and I's work. I'll be leaving for work after posting this so I can't do much today, but I'll still be around and thinking and posting here.

Nice job putting the spectrogram together.

I had a thought this morning when I got up but after seeing your pic it looks less likely. "Orig + "Null" = Original". But Orig. by itself is usually considered original so...

Also maybe the 0 is Nova's Sig.

 		I too have to go to work but first, I found this site from google searching nova sig ig.

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/spiesfly/phot-nf.html

which led me:

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/astrospies/ and http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/astrospies/profiles.html

a secret team of astro-spies (7 of them in the photo)...i was wondering who number 6 was. anyway, I'm not sure these are important or even relevant, but it looked interesting and I don't have time to research so I thought i'd leave it for you guys

Meh, you're better off than me, I only got 4 hours sleep last night.

For the last 4 transmissions the file has been on the site, this time it's: http://gknova6.com/transmission5.mp3

Yeah, unfortunately it works backwards for me. I'm so busy at home lately that I can't really get deep into this stuff until I actually get to work each morning lol....

Thank you much!

 		Another copy of the memo, this time converted to B&W, to look more like the original document. Notice it appears to be faxed in some way?
