Is there meaning to the variety and orientation of the galaxies?


Under a certain perspective, I guess you could say there is meaning in all things.

But the meaning you seek cannot be found there. Though it does make the picture pretty to look at.

I want to Journey into Space Because That is Where My Destiny Awaits.

I'm thinking it could a message using an alien hieroglyph alphabet.

In general all the galaxies in a column are the same shape, but are sometimes rotated, especially in the final three rows.

Ah, Jade the Stick is our riddlemaster I see.

Dead Orbit Is Best Orbit

I want to journey into space so I can make a gigantic satelite that I can aim at Earth. I will name this satilite Phil. Anyways Phil will be pointed down at Earth so that I can fire a wave impulse at some select cool and inconspicous looking bulidings that turn out to be amplifiers dedicated to amplfying the wave from Phil. Then as the wave travels the globe, the true purpose will be revealed. The wave will have turned all of hummanity and life into my thralls that I can freely neurologicly code into doing what I want. Then I will have the thralls hide some expensive and cool stuff in a place no one will find it. After I have gathered the materials I will have the thralls assume their places before I fired Phil and turn off the beam where I then will land on Earth acting like nothing ever happend. With a few extra dollars, of course.

The challenge pic reminds me of a direction field. I doubt the challenge is based on mathematics though.

Am I supposed to write something funny here?

Piloting an amazing starship is a fantastic recent perk.

Ahhhh, yes. I'll tell that story next week, Bungie Community. Promise.
VGA reveal confirmed?

I wonder if this has to do with the challenge.

Personally, the chance to be a fly on the walls that contain my favorite creative process is a real treat. The chance to make a contribution to that process is still surreal. Our esteemed panelists might have a less starry-eyed perspective...

"I want to journey into space because..."

...Because I want to study Black Holes.

  • 11.30.2012 2:46 PM PDT

Just an average Iowa State University student. Go Cyclones!

Short and sweet: I want to journey into space because I love discovery. Space provides infinite chances to see things beyond anything we could possibly imagine.

I came for Halo, but I heard the Tru7h, fought thru Carnage, and stayed for Bungie.

I want to journey into space because in space, no one can hear me awkwardly talk to myself.

Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.

The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.

I want to journey into space, cause I am a Traveler of it and time, it is in my nature.

Break down, every single one of you.

I want to journey into space because it is the final frontier. The biggest divide and the greatest unknown. Were the possibilities are as infinite as the stars. Were we can stare into the void and say, "I am not afraid!" Some say the sky is the limit, but I ask you, why stop there? Let us venture forth into the infinite cosmos. Let us go where no man has gone before. Let us reach forth and grasp the heavens tight with both hands, screaming to the stars that we will not be held back! That we shall continue to explore, to create, to marvel and wonder! To dream. Let us therefore go together, my brothers, into infinity.

A reminder that when solving the challenge, you'll need to accompany your solution with an explanation of how you derived it. Otherwise, you won't receive any credit.

There are 147 possible spots, 60 galaxies.

\=x
|=x
-=x
O:x


Counting...

Some of them are a bit tricky, are there perhaps more angles than those I suggested?
What?

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

Next week we get to hear about Michael Williams starship thingy?! Which I think is Destiny related.. which would be awesome. Also NEXT WEEK, one week from today is the VGAs. Coincidence? Probably.....

No to try and solve this puzzle.

I think SGMX already solved it.

When I look at it, I see a 7 note scale similar to a music box.
