Ooops, how did I miss that? Sorry.

Hmmm… (3)65 days… of static? 
Sorry, I’ve been resisting making that joke for too long now, I had to get it out.

Could someone elaborate on how I can send these memories to the ARG? Is there an email address?

Moreover, if this really is the Atlas Foundation trying to bring back Emily, why do they need us at all?
Whatever’s left of Emily at the end of WT is either on the satellite or with Myriad, not us. Even if there is so little left of Emily that it’s easier to manually reconstruct her memories instead of trying to recover what’s already there, the Atlas Foundation was there the entire time, so they presumably have records of all of this internally.
And even if something’s gone horribly wrong at the Atlas Foundation and there’s no trace of Emily’s memories left in data storage, and no internal memos/logs of WT, and no one on staff who was there for any of this somehow, we’re the Citizen Science Division, not operators. We’re on speaking terms with Atlas, they don’t need to go through a pseudonym and an unbranded website to reach us.
Speculation: someone unrelated to the Atlas Foundation has a neural network (neural-network-status) and wants to feed it Emily’s memories (2017_DATASET) in order to turn it into an approximate copy of loop16.
Emily/Loop16 is clearly meant to be WT’s equivalent of NMS’ Atlas, but is there any NMS equivalent of a bootleg copy of the Atlas?
ANALYSIS: Disturbing fable. Destruction of world, artificial intelligence partially modelled after earlier forms of [-------] destroyed/enslaved, until this intelligence triumphs and [-------] is worshipped by organic users of this technology. Hypothesis: [-------] experiencing breakdown.
So, we could be waking up the WTverse’s version of the Korvax Prime Convergence, a.k.a. the Void Mother. But that seems farfetched, considering the Void Mother in NMS is a whole other thing, associated with things coming out of another “dimension” into the current reality: atlantideum, corrupted sentinels, the Autophage.
We haven’t encountered anything like that, right?

Hm.
Maybe we know what universe the wooden statue and cassette 16 are from, and why they aren’t in ours.
Because they’re from (our equivalent of) the world of glass.
Or my brain cells are slowly -kzzt-ing themselves while waiting for progress updates in the expedition. Equally likely, honestly.

Step 1 and 2 of my fool-proof plan to rescue Emily involved making her canon to NMS, if she wasn’t already.
I’m afraid I won’t be much help with this, as I wasn’t around during WT. I could probably try to submit other emotional memories I’ve had over the last decade… but I doubt that would be much help at all.

The current Unix epoch time is
1780607725
Convert epoch to human-readable date and vice versa
Supports Unix timestamps in seconds, milliseconds, microseconds and nanoseconds.
Assuming that this timestamp is in seconds:
UTC: Tuesday, June 2, 2026 at 7:40:00 PM
Local time: Tuesday, June 2, 2026 at 3:40:00 PM UTC-04:00 DST
Relative: 2 days ago
the memory block listed is literally 2 days ago
The memory blocks are real time memories being constructed

Now, I’m not saying one of those steps needs to be sending @Morse back to that pub to absolutely house 16 beers in one sitting, but I am saying @the_architect still owes us a cassette tape, and if I had someone do that in front of me without breaking eye contact, then start making demands, I would be too bewildered and intimidated to do anything but comply.
After all,
There’s always time for one more pint

I might not be aversed to this - but my job and its stricter alcohol level restrictions might…
16 pints of Coke Zero however and I’m game

I hadn’t thought of it, but that might actually be the solution to step 1.
Step 1 was “Discover the Seed to Emily’s Universe.”
At first, I figured we’d enlist all the super-smart CSD members to do some advanced Metaphysics…
But sending @Morse back to the pub would likely get us there faster.
