Gliese 667 CC. A space atlas
IPFS
8 April 2023•TEZOS•IPFS
On January 24, 2023, the BigRAO radio-telescope array in Johannesburg, South Africa started receiving a stream of transmissions from the Gliese 667 C system.
The data stream was soon discovered to be a series of cartesian coordinate fields bearing geographical information. The local scientists quickly wrote a simple algorithm to render the data stream as pictures.
The scientific community was shocked as they saw that the data stream was an atlas of planet Gliese 667 CC, a small earth-like world orbiting the aforementioned star.
The algorithm rendered mountain landscapes, rolling hills with what appeared as tall vegetation, coasts, rivers, and even a few structures that looked artificial, as well as cities made of square elements.
The Gliese 667 CC planet was thought until now to be too close to its red dwarf star to be capable of harbouring life.
The BigRAO scientists are currently compiling a large collection of these maps. The distance from Earth to Gliese is 22 light-years, the transmissions have thus originated at least 22 years ago and have been carried through space for this period of time.
Among the maps, a few were found to be star charts containing locations of known wormholes that - with the appropriate technology - could be used to shorten a space trip from earth to the Gliese system.
Gliese 667 CC. A space atlas
2048x2048 Generative maps.
Instructions:
Once the iteration is minted/generated, the scanning process starts, generating one layer at the time.
Wait for the scan to finish by checking the status on the bottom border of the iteration, it could take a while.
Once the scan is done, the unique name of the map will show up and this indicates the completion of the generation.
Click open under the iteration preview for full resolution view/better details.
Interactivity and Lore
Click open under the iteration preview to go fullscreen.
Click on the image to make sure the canvas is in focus.
