The Moment of Silence Hints

I'm back again with some important info. How do I use it?

  • 1 of 8: If you don't have that yet, you need to do more stuff in New York before returning to SETI and reading the following hints.
  • 2 of 8: Specifically, I trust you're talking about the info you got off of the videotape that was in Graham's bag.
  • 3 of 8: You need to find a place that has telescopes that you can enter coordinates into.
  • 4 of 8: Try the children's observatory near the souvenir shop.
  • 5 of 8: Once you're familiar with how the virtual telescopes work, try entering one of the numbers from the videotape.
  • 6 of 8: If you entered one of the videotape numbers correctly, you'll be able to print a picture of an orbiting satellite.
  • 7 of 8: Click on it to take it -- it'll stay in your inventory, unlike any galaxy or starfield pictures you can take with these things.
  • 8 of 8: You can enter both numbers from the videotape and get two photos of satellites, but you only really need one.
