The Moment of Silence Hints
What can I do in the children's observatory building?
1 of 10: Try using one of the virtual telescopes.
2 of 10: Each one has a number keypad and the buttons "ENTER" and "PRINT."
3 of 10: So type in a number and see what happens.
4 of 10: The idea is that you type in a galaxy number in order to view that galaxy and optionally get a printed picture of it.
5 of 10: You can get galaxy numbers from some of the large pictures on the observatory walls.
6 of 10: After typing in a number (note that you never need to press the period button), click the ENTER button to adjust the telescope to point at the target.
7 of 10: You can then click on the "ocular" to view what you've aimed at.
8 of 10: You can also click on the PRINT button to get a photo of it.
9 of 10: NOTE: The photos won't appear in your inventory unless you take one of something vital to the game plot.
10 of 10: That will only be possible on your second visit to SETI.
