Basically it is the V shape that resembles an envelope’s seal IMO. You know the flap on the back? I totally get what you’re saying and it’s a good ob…
I’m going to continue looking for ways LE might have swabbed the surface of the letters, and see if that really is a thing. The fact that they’re all …
looking at anything but the original would be like looking at a friends X ray to see if your arm is broken True, but I don’t think anyone had suggest…
I am a biologist with a background in biochemistry. If I was to guess these diamond patterns are probably part of some forensic test something else we…
Also, just want to add that an easy way to bring out the diamond patterns in the letters is to use Equalize in the Adjustments menu in Photoshop. I’m …
wowowowo, this is a really intereting thing to look carefully. Theres any hi res scan? The reverse is blank? Yes, there is… I’m glad someone else f…
I’d always assumed this was something well known, but I haven’t been able to find any other posts about the diamond patterns, so I’m just going to upl…
Exorsit letter have this thing too? It does, and it’s a little bigger and more defined. It actually kind of looks more mechanical too:
Could he have been using some kind of light box and the diamond pattern is actually the shape of the light source? Don’t know why he would need it he…
I guess my point is, even though a lot of people probably don’t know what a radian is, a sailor in the 1960s might. Before computers and calculators, …
Ordinarily yes, you’d be using sin(θ), but if you look at the formula, they’re actually approximating the arc length of a circle when they do the calc…
Yeah, that’s the one. I think it’s called the radian rule because the output distance approximates the arc of a circle calculated using radians, and i…
Such a great idea! Tom Voigt published high quality scans of the the Zodiac letters a while back, and the first thing you notice is that most of the p…
I’ve never been in the navy, but they do apparently use radians in navigation for something called "the radian rule," which is used to calcu…
