the first thing i do
is rescale the gizmo
|
the circle surrounding
was 2000 originally...
|
...grouped together, with the Gizmo thingy
so, all dimensions change, proportionally
|
and then, adjusting
...incrementally...
|
4077 units
at 46.61�
|
|
...above image, maximum zoom on
duplicate of far star sphere...
that's as close as i can get it
to align the far circle onto G1
as the ring for the center star
...is exactly centered on G2...
|
and, at this particular scaling
the large star circles = 511.66
...the ones for/at G1 and G2...
still being equal to each other
|
which is eerily, approximately
...exactly 100 cubits larger...
than a side of G2's base of 411
|
|
|
from S1
560.0
-511.666...
= 48.333...
|
48 and 1/3
5/3 from 50
5/3 as Phi
|
from 100
= 51.666...
3 x 13 + 2/3
|
keep those
in mind...
|
|
|
|
|
411 + 100 though...
you can not dismiss
something like that
as coincidental...
it's irresponsible
...and misleading
|
...and speaking of
coincidental things
that skeptics will
say "pshaw" to...

below image: wirey screenshot
notice how close that red rod
brushes past the NW edge of a
sphere south of G1 east of G2
|
above image: the gizmo diagram, from previous pages
here rotated 180� for closer relevant appreciation
...i'm calling the brown line "the doubling rod"
...and subsequently, the red line "the quad rod"
|
|
above image: overhead wireframe of S2e (red, selected)

|
echoed here for emphasis
with red and blue lines
drawn on the image itself
glow added for prominence
|
|
|
|
|
both spheres are
...due south of G1
and due east of G2
at G1 coordinates
( 0.0 , -675.5 )
|
...the difference
in their diameters
...is 11 cubits...
...at 560 and 549
(for S1s and S2e)

|
|
showing the gizmo's "quad rod"
(in magenta and white stripes)
is tangent to S2e (orange disc)
|
|
|
the orange disc as S2e
has a diameter of 549
matching G2's height
|
|
|
and the pink disc
beneath it, is S1s
with diameter of 560
matching G1's height
|
|
|
|
|
and then i threw an octagon down
with an outer diameter of 560...
and then rotated it 6� clockwise
to nearly make an alignment with
the "quad rod" (pink and white)
|
|
|
|
|
|
right image: wireframe
showing the octagon is
rotated 6� clockwise
|
|
|
...as shown above...
...a few images back
...the mighty gizmo is
still rotated to 46.61�
...at this orientation
the large star circles
situated on G1 and G2

|
...below image...
...the quad rod is
turned to 141.15�
from 135� = 6.15�
0.15 = 3 20ths
...of a degree...
...close enough...
...for anybody...
|
|

stay tuned, space campers
...i get it closer... later...

above right

...curious... little...
...intersection there...
a little right of center
the brown east west line
is from G2 (675.5 south)
and 20 cubits wide (N-S)
so, the red sphere point
is about 10 cubits north
|
|
|
this marks a corner of the
square of the center circle
250 pixels square in gizmo
...at this relative proportion
it's that same noted 511.66

outer large circle...
|
|
|
|
|
250 pixels square in gizmo,
at this relative proportion
...it's that noted 511.66..
|
the purple north-south line
is from G1 center ( 0 , 0 )
same 20 cubits width (E-W)
|
the cloudy striped line is LL
120 cubits south of G1 south,
here, made 40 cubits wide N-S
|
|
|
and here again is
the gizmo diagram
...rotated at 180�
|
|
|
below image shows the double rod
(brown line in the gizmo diagram)
almost touching the G3nw corner
(as marked by the purple circle)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in this same
positioning
(for gizmo)
the smaller
star circle...
in this case
for Mintaka
...is right on
the G3w edge
1192.18 west
1446.67 south
|
|
|
|
and then... i noticed...
curiously, proportionally
it looked like phi, to me
|
so i did some measuring,
and what it is, actually
...is nestled between...
phi n 2/3 south to north
SW corner to midpoint...
|
or, from south to north
SW corner to NW corner
...half of phi (0.309)
and 1/3 that distance
...of G3's west side...
of 202 cubits, or 201.5
|
...which figures roughly
...as 67 and 62.5 cubits
...north from south edge
...Mintaka = 65 and 1/3
|
|
|
|
|
the yellow shaded box
marks the lower third
of a measuring object
made 202 cubits long
|
and those i just threw on there...
dragging n dropping, no precision...
n it's perhaps tempting to nitpick...
but, values are rounded responsibly...
|
...for example...
what i call 125 in
the diagram above,
is actually 124.83
|
...rotated at 0.28�
the 201.5 base of G3
takes up the space of
about a 202 base area
|
the 67 as 1/3 of 202
202 / 3 = 67.333...
201.5 / 3 = 67.1666...
neither figure being the actual point
|
1/3 of G3sw-G3nw
-1197.5
+ 67.1666...
= -1130.333...
|
|
|
|
G3sw is roughly -1512
but G3 is rotated 0.28�
so the actual corner is
-1511.51 ...specifically
...but i'm just rounding
|
...but that is odd
it's almost exactly
1/2 cubit difference
|
-1512 + 67.0 = -1445.00
Mintaka orb: -1446.67
-1512 + 62.5 = -1449.50
|
202 x 0.618 = 124.836
202 / 3 ... = 67.333...
|
1512 - 1446.67 = 65.33
north to third = 1.67
n south to phi = 2.83
a difference of -1.16
|
and they have near phi
relationships between
|
|
|
there's that 125 again
as phi of 202 for G3...
and a 77, which is nice
(there was a 55 before)
|
|
|
|
|
202 x phi = 124.8428657274...
201.5 x phi = 124.5338487331...
... phi / 2 = 0.3090169943...
|
202 x (phi/2) = 62.421432...
201.5 x (phi/2) = 62.266924...
maybe rounder = 62.333.........
|
201.5 / 3 = 67.1666...
+ -1197.5 = -1130.333.....
as the "actual" 1/3 point S-N
...with G3 unrotated, however
|
201.5 x (phi/2) = 62.266924...
+ -1197.5 = -1135.233075...
as the "actual" half phi point
with G3 unrotated, however
|
|
|
...so, strangely, coincidentally...
they matched my original numbers
based on pixels from a photograph
|
...the 125 and 250 in pixels is a coincidence
but those are the rough proper proportions
...there's... lower resolutions... but it's 2:1
|
including the 400 in the concept
...dividing all numbers by 25...
...and you get... 5, 10 and 16...
|
|
|
|
the gizmo group was expanded, from
2000 cubits to 4077 proportionally
(multiplied by a factor of 2.0385)
|
at this scale, the sphere for the star
(which started out as 5 units diameter)
is now resized to 10.19 relative cubits
|
and the circle for the smaller star circle
...which in the reckoning was 125 pixels...
(inner ring 124, outer ring 126) now 256.85
|
|
|
here, i've duplicated that sphere
and made it 20 cubits in diameter
made the texture half transparent
and grounded it to zero elevation
|
|
|
where the stars apparent proportions
are roughly relative to the proportions
of values like 125 to 250... to 400 etc
compromising between 250 and 256
250 being a quarter of 1000, or 25 x 10
256 being a natural double, also 64 x 4
...as 2 to the 8th power, and 2/8 = 1/4
|
|
|
and you can say it's
...just a coincidence
...that's... just how it
happens to work out
...mathematically...
...geometrically...
...yeah... aha...
|
|
|
...first right image...
view from the SSSW
the Mintaka marker
(duplicated sphere)
enlarged and made
half-transparent...
|
|
|
...from this perspective, we can see
the star falls somewhere on the edge
between the SW and NW corners of G3
|
|
|
|
|
next image... second in the series...
from at about the altitude of the peak
looking down at the west face of G3...
...and from the SSW, approximately...
the Mintaka marker appears centered
|
|
|
next image... third in the series...
and turned a little more... slightly
now the Mintaka marker (green spheres)
and the center point of the west face
appear to straddle the apparent center
3D perspective in non-stereo 2D image
each of these 2 middle points are at
about phi to their opposite corner
|
|
|
|
|
|
next image... fourth in the series
from about double height altitude
...and looking almost due east...
...right at... the G3 west face...
we can see that the Mintaka marker
is right where it's supposed to be
cuz we're looking at it, laterally
where the pyramid meets the ground
is almost an exact horizontal line
thus, any perspecive displacement
is about as near zero as it can be
|
|
|
|
|
next image... fifth in the series
...pulled back quite a bit now...
G1 is completely obscured by G2
transparent spheres our only clue
|
|
|
|
|
next image... sixth in the series
a little higher relative altitude
G1 is peeking out from behind G2
...but appears much smaller here
|
|
|
...about half as big
...though in reality
it's slightly larger
|
|
|
|
|
|
and the SE corner of G3
marks... on a 1000 scale
the root 2-3-5 rectangle
of the 3 main pyramids
...measuring roughly...
|
...1000 times the square root of 2
by 1000 times the square root of 3
and the length of that hypotenuse
is 1000 times the square root of 5
...intentional and geometrical...
|
|
it actually makes math harder to understand... if you refuse to round off... or up... ever
...and also... math is easier to understand... if you remember to round off... or up, etc.
...converting complex values and variables... to their round equivalents... simplifying...
|
|
but somehow the coordinates for G2 center
seem odd to me, at: ( -638.50 , -675.50 )
but, not very far from very round numbers
with my coordinates relative to G1 center
|
so, i could go with ( -640.00 , -680.00 )
from the above coords: ( 1.50 and 4.50 )
...3 halfs and 9 halfs... respectively...
|
|
what i'm saying is... if i'd noticed this
(which is one of the first thingies i did)
and i wanted to represent it, approximately
...i would use those rounded proportions...
|
|
... 125 to 250 is 2 to 1
but put the 400 in there
125 / 5 = 25 ... / 5 = 5
250 / 5 = 50 ... / 5 = 10
400 / 5 = 80 ... / 5 = 16
|
|
10 to 16 = 5 to 8
approximately phi
...rounding to that
notch of resolution
and locking on that
round approximation
|
on a small piece of paper or whatever
measuring with hand size rulers etc...
5 to 8 ...or phi... is what you come to
and a technologically primitive society
especially already... grounded in such
...philosophy... would see it as holy
|
|
i'm not saying the ancient egyptians built the pyramids
i think they came along much after... beheld the ruins
...what i'm saying is... they noticed this eventually
...and what little there is, textually... reachingly
...associating Orion n the Belt etc, to any deities
this is where they got that from... simply must be
...and this is not immersing myself in egyptology
all the official scholars will now say i'm silly
