Wikipedia wrote:PSR B1620-26 is a binary star system approximately 12,400 light-years away in the constellation of Scorpius. The system is composed of a pulsar (PSR B1620-26 A) and a white dwarf (WD B1620-26 or PSR B1620-26 B). As of 2000, the system is also confirmed to have an extrasolar planet orbiting the two stars. The system is located in the globular cluster of Messier 4.

So Scorpius or Messier? None of which i think has anything to do with Egypt but I might be wrong.

Nice googling Evilkeen!
Here goes my leap of faith !-)
B1620-26 is a star system.
A star system . . . brings back (sweet) memories to Cypher III.
III . . . we all know what 'next puzzle' that refers to . . .

But . . . don't think about what "12,400 light-years away " might mean in reference to the next puzzle . . .
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

So, what do the lines mean? Are they part of a constellation or something?

Dude! You missed the cyphers?? :shock:
Cypher I and II were excellent... probably the most enjoyable online puzzles SW have produced so far! Cypher III was a bit too far out for me, I guess thats where the current style of online puzzles and games started :roll:

I didn't know about google earth sky either... cool! :D

Yes, I would have enjoyed those, having read about them... I think the last one was solved in September 2007 and I joined in November! :(
