Anomalous Star Positions — Decode Attempt

Dr. M. said the coordinates spell something. Working it out.

DECODE ATTEMPT #1 — Direct Coordinate Reading

Method: read RA hours as numbers, find pattern

5, 6, 12, 16, 19, 22, 4, 7, 10... → no recognisable sequence

DECODE ATTEMPT #3 — Offset Values as Code

Method: use offset minutes as ASCII values

18, 2, 7, 4, 11, 5... → R, B, G, D, K, E → no word

DECODE ATTEMPT #7 — ANOM-07 Coordinates Only

Method: RA 04h 17m → 04:17. Dec +57°33′ → 57.33. Note that 04:17 = time elapsed in Experiment 3 (subject reported 4h17m in corridor, clock showed 15min). And 57.33... 57 + 33 = 90.

Experiment 3 + 90°. 90° rotation. Turn 90°.

DECODE ATTEMPT #11 — Pattern Shape Recognition

Method: plot all anomalous positions on sphere, connect in sequence

Shape formed: floor plan of a house with a garden and a basement. My house. The stars are showing me my own address.

"I called Dr. M. again. No answer. I sent a message. No reply. I went to her office — she is on sabbatical, according to the department administrator. Sabbatical as of last week. She did not mention a sabbatical when we met. I asked the administrator for her forwarding address. She said: 'She didn't leave one. She said she was going somewhere she had been before.' I don't know what that means." — C. Jiang

FINAL INTERPRETATION — 2022-01-17

THE STARS ARE A MAP.
THE MAP IS OF THIS PLACE.
THIS PLACE IS WHAT THE STARS ARE FOR.
