It scares me because I don’t know if there was a “correct” answer or if it will just do something different based on what we answer. Is it possible we could fail this just because tons of people voted like crazy before we knew enough?
291 = z
992 = 0
443 = n
Using ROT13, that is
291 = m
992 = b
443 = a

Maybe after the files download we can use this more effectively.
did anyone notice that the contact button is glitching sometimes?

Yeah, here are my attempts at grabbing a few samples of them:

ROT13 translates to
Et maintenant, bien sûr, ça fait six ans déjà…Je n’ai jamais encore raconté cette histoire. Les camarades qui m’ont revu ont été bien contents de me revoir vivant. J’étais triste mais je leur disais: C’est la fatigue… Maintenant je me suis un peu consolé. C’est à dire… pas tout à fait. Mais je sais bien qu’il est revenu à sa planète, car, au lever du jour, je n’ai pas retrouvé son corps. Ce n’était pas un corps tellement lourd…Et j’aime la nuit écouter les étoiles. C’est comme cinq cent millions de grelots… Mais voilà qu’il passe quelque chose d’extraordinaire. La muselière que j’ai dessinée pour le petit prince, j’ai oublié d’y ajouter la courroie de cuir! Il n’aura jamais pu l’attacher au mouton. Alors je me demande: “Que s’est-il passé sur sa planète? Peut-être bien que le mouton à mangé la fleur…”
Translated from french to english
And now, of course, it’s been six years already … I’ve never told this story yet. The comrades who saw me were glad to see me alive again. I was sad but I said to them: It is fatigue … Now I have a little consolation. That is … not quite. But I know that he has returned to his planet, for at daybreak I have not found his body. It was not such a heavy body … And I like the night listening to the stars. It’s like five hundred million bells … But here it goes something extraordinary. The muzzle I designed for the little prince, I forgot to add the leather strap! He could never tie her to the sheep. Then I ask myself: “What happened on his planet? Maybe the sheep ate the flower …”

What’s the thinking on the floating equations in the background of the homepage? Just fluff or something to solve? Only one I could clearly make out is 0=(2x+1)(x-5)
That is from the book “The Little Prince” of course. It’s about a boy who is an alien from what he calls “Asteroid 325” but what earthlings call “Asteroid B-612”. Don’t know if those numbers could help us at all.
Edit: It is also interesting to note that the Prince mistakes his echo for someone else that he is talking to. Echo again…

It could. Either way we don’t know for sure the correct answer…
Guess we’ll see when new things unlock
The percentages for the Mercury program are continuing to change. 80 is going up, most likely due to the Reddit post asking people to vote on it.
The typeform says atlas13 in the URL. I’ll bet you anything that if we complete the process it will mail package 13/16.
Edit: Guys, it seems we can vote as many times as we want. Please vote 80 on the typeform until it is the highest percentage. Once we know if that one works or not we can try another; please help, this will take us all working together. I really think we have a 12 hour time limit to complete this.
Please keep voting 80 until the percent is a majority: Discover Typeform, where forms = fun

Solution to glyph 5
From http://www.myriad-70.com/status/ :
669:a 116:b 365:c 119:d 816:e 108:f 590:g 586:h 408:i 847:j
759:k 707:l 804:m 343:n 313:o 298:p 919:q 333:r 585:s 602:t
196:u 225:v 560:w 296:x 534:y 775:z 811:a 918:b 922:c 530:d
866:e 613:f 500:g 449:h 563:i 221:j 435:k 655:l 332:m 443:n
992:o 702:p 531:q 513:r 760:s 404:t 363:u 118:v 841:w 621:x
337:y 291:z
At this point there is the contact page and the mails (Sequence 4 of Waking Titan - Myriad - Google Docs)
These return the numbers
FA-291, SI-313, la- 443, RE-992
which with the status page alphabet gives:
z, o , n, o
Then there is this mail
Decyphering gives
DO(116) MI(707) SOL(811)
or with the status codes alphabet
b, l, a
This returns:
Do - 116 - b
re - 992 - o
mi - 707 - l
fa - 291 - z
sol - 811 - a
la - 443 - n
si - 313 - o

There appear to be no English words containing the letters “zon” or ones containing the letters “mba”. I still think those letters are significant somehow, though.
Edit: Doh! Of course there are such words. I think I need to use a better Scrabble cheat site from now on.
You mean like ZONE, HORIZON, LAMBDA, AMBIDEXTROUS…?
Zone contains those letters.
Do mi sol…
So what of RE, MI, FA, LA, TI?
Did someone notice that they are music notes? FA-SI-LA-RE and DO-MI-SOL!
If we sort them out, we have DO-RE-MI-FA-SOL-LA-SI:
Do - 116 - b
re - 992 - o
mi - 707 - l
fa - 291 - z
sol - 811 - a
la - 443 - n
si - 313 - o
bolzano? or maybe bolzanob if we include the last DO in the scale.
