The binary looks like this:
sfmatttftatisfsiftfaqtqfqamfmintnaatafaizfziiatut�

+ufsuqs'uss"�

-ttauui'uqt"�

ua/sq/tu�
tz:uu��


Totally just realized that the second and third lines appear to be coordinates and the fourth and fifth lines look like a date and time. We're probably looking at a drop once we decode this.

Also, I think that we need to use this binary puzzle in conjunction with the missing pi numbers. With the latest update of helpedna.com, five missing numbers were added to the pi puzzle: 3, 3, 7, 51, and 6. Five groups of letters were also added to the binary puzzle: ua, sq, tu, tz, and uu. I don't think this is coincidental. I think we need to somehow work the numbers from the pi puzzle into the binary puzzle.

Yeah, definitely coordinates.

*snip*

I kinda knew that sequence looked oddly familiar...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

sfmatttftatisfsiftfaqtqfqamfmintnaatafaizfziiatut�

Is a list of primes...

2 - 3 - 5 - 7 - 11 - 13 - 17 - 19 - 23 - 29 - 31 - 37 - 41 - 43 - 47 - 53 - 59 - 61 - 67 - 71 - 73 - 79 - 83 - 89 - 97 - 101


That makes the result...

-117 009' 041"
