Myst Hints
How do I get into the spaceship?
1 of 8: The spaceship requires electric power to open.
2 of 8: There's a power plant that you need to turn on first.
3 of 8: And set it to the proper voltage.
4 of 8: That's 59 volts.
5 of 8: If you go down to the power plant, you'll notice that each of the buttons will add a different voltage to the total. See the next hint to figure out what those voltages are.
6 of 8: First column (reading down): 10, 7, 8, 16, 5.
7 of 8: Second column (again, reading down): 1, 2, 22, 19, 9.
8 of 8: Try clicking the switches for 2, 16, 19, and 22 volts. (Fourth down on the first column and the middle three on the second.)
