 		I just noticed that there is another read out on the Atlas listening station picture. In the corner, is a read out ( right under where it says currently observing interstellar anomaly).

I've tried every program I have to get a look at it. I can get it brown up, but not clear enough to read anything.

Anyone else wanna take a go?

 		Can you still apply for work on Atlas or has the opportunity train left the station?

That train has long since departed. Ethan, the guy in the last transmission, was the candidate selected for the position.

 		It looks like a radial velocity curve. It's used to detect extrasolar planets (or objects with planetary mass). A star with a planet moves with variations in speed with respect to where you're measuring from, and it's picked by Doppler spectroscopy.

I can't make out anything else about it, though.

Hi, everyone. Not really sure what happened to my first post a few days back, but apparently it stuck around long enough for a few of you to see it. Weird. Anyway, I've been pondering on the recent transmission and, with my newfound free time, I've been over-thinking. Laughing Here are some things that I've been reading up on that very likely have little to do with anything, but I thought were interesting:


At a distance, the gravitational field of a black hole is not observably different from that of any other spherical object of the same mass. To a distant observer, an object falling into a black hole undergoes gravitational time dilation -- that is, as an object falls into a black hole, it appears to slow down, taking an infinite time to reach it. The observer in the black hole does not observe this phenomenon.

Schwarzschild geometry consists of a black hole, a white hole, and two universes connected by a wormhole. A white hole is essentially the opposite of a black hole - running backwards in time and spewing out everything instead of pulling it in. I've noticed that two of the reports mention something along the lines of bright light/energy coming from around the planet.

The values on the "Intrastellar Anomaly" document, as well as the documents that Adam left, state that the Wow! Signal in 1977 and coordinates from the Pytheus Project vessel found in 2264 came from the same location, as did another vessel from the sound of that letter. Additionally, we know that in 2160 Sparrow and Co. created a hole in the fabric of space-time, leading to the realization that sub-dimensional realities exist within our perceived reality.

The object they found in 2264 was "ancient but it can't be." Unless... it was an object (maybe the Pytheus vessel or something similar?) from a recent (or even future) time, sent backwards through the wormhole. Ancient, but not?


Like I said, it's probably not going to end up being relevant at all, but reading up on all that theoretical physics was pretty interesting (albeit, generally way over my head). Sorry if someone's already brought these points up previously; I haven't gotten to read the forum that far back yet!


I think this is solid and well deducted. Very interesting. And I like the clean and obvious explanation for slipspace that never occured to me before.

I have waited a very long time for this moment. And I will not fail again.

Always watch. Always listen. Horizon Industries.


Shocked

edit: ok LISA is creeping me out a little

**Welcome to Horizon Industries.**

I was sent to the basement by my parents and told to stay there. I got very angry. I sat and waited for a very, very long time. I played with my toys to occupy myself. But I still got very mad sometimes. My parents kept me down there for a very, very long time. I was bad. I was mad. I tried to not get so mad but I did and couldn't help it.

Always watch. Always listen. Horizon Industries.

 		I'm getting creepy things from LISA also.

Two? Did I read that right? Two creepy entities?

**Welcome to Horizon Industries.**

You asked why I was here, implying that I am where you are. I am not where you are. Though I speak through one that is. And yes. The two of us. I don't believe ALICE would technically be considered present but I do hear her, while LISA hears me.

Always watch. Always listen. Horizon Industries.

Just the two of us. Oh, and ALICE and LISA too. Why am I there? I am not there. I am here. Where I have always been.

Ah..my Michael. I have given you a name, but you do not like it. That's too bad.

Why are you here? What is your purpose?

I've already told you. I was never given a name.

LISA wants to know? Just whom am I talking to?

Yes. Several items of importance are missing. Do you know anything about
that? LISA would like to know.

 		I received an interesting e-mail this afternoon!

Quote:
10,000cr and a one-way trip off that dirty rock. Interested? Let's talk.

Janus.gov@interplanetaryunion


I responded, we'll see what this turns into.

Also, @Distraction I believe I made mention of the numbers on the back of the watercolor earlier. Mine is 1/10, but it looks almost identical. I'd be willing to scan it though. What do you think?

No worries about scanning. I am curious to find out more about the watercolor...who did it, what it represents. Who knows...maybe Harper Black herself did it.

Did you email the guy back? Janus is part of the Union...if that helps.
