Introduction: This bin is for tracking progress associated with the "Loona" tumblr and decryption effort. (ctrl-f to get to the proper section) I-I Introduction I-II Theoretical timeline I-III Listing of individual threads and occurrences within. I-IV Art! ------ I-I Introduction To give a brief introduction, this project is associated with http://askloona.tumblr.com/ and messages transmitted from the same. It appears to indicate that Luna is trapped on Earth's moon, while infected with a black "miasma" which continually leaks from her body. She appears to have had hostile interactions with astronauts, and is using or used equipment attached to lunar probes to transmit. Since then, additional information has been accrued: Luna's banishment was apparently pre-planned in response to something Luna encountered or discovered on the moon. It also became clear that Luna is capable of visiting Earth at least temporarily. Critically, it also seems increasingly likely that Apollo 17 may have recovered Luna's gameboy, leading to hostile contact during Apollo 18, 19, or other missions. Celestia appears at times. Whether this is literally Celestia or a manifestation of some portion of Luna's consciousness is unclear.

I will separately parse updates that went up during the interim period and those that occurred during the thread. Prior updates: - http://robyreshy.tumblr.com/ now acts as a reserve of deleted Askloona posts and captured skype conversations. Invaluable resource; thank you! - 7/1/15: Askloona updates: Distorted image of distant astronaut on the moon, accompanied by text: "é̲̲û̶̲̲MM̶̲̲_̶̲̲Û̲¬̶̲̲¼̲̲ " - 7/2/15: Askloona updates: Another distorted image of an astronaut on the moon, accompanied by text: "▄̿▀̿▐̿ ))" - 7/7/15: Askloona updates: Third distorted image of astronaut; note that astronaut has been growing steadily closer. Accompanying text: " 9̶̲̲̅6̶̲̲̅ ̶̲̲̅4̲2̶̲̲̅ ̶̲̲̅30̲ ̶̲̲̅6̲̲ ̲4̶̲̲̅2̲ 5̶̲̲̅1̲ 2̶̲̲̅1̲ 7̶̲̲̅2 ̶̲̲̅2̲1̲̲ ̲̲__= " - Second update on the same day: Fourth distorted image of astronaut, in the same pose as previous image but shifted. Accompanying text: " 9̶̲̲̅6̶̲̲̅ ̶̲̲̅4̲2̶̲̲̅ ̶̲̲̅30̲ ̶̲̲̅6̲̲ ̲4̶̲̲̅2̲ 5̶̲̲̅1̲ 2̶̲̲̅1̲ 7̶̲̲̅2 ̶̲̲̅2̲1̲̲ ̲̲_ [][]CAM " - 7/13/15: Askloona updates: Close-up image of astronaut with severely damaged faceplate. Accompanying text: " ▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅▐̶̲̅ " - 7/19/15: Askloona updates: 'Sketchy' image astronaut on the moon. 'Eyes' are seen above the moon's horizon. Accompanying text: " ▀̶̲ ╦̶̲ ╦̲ ▀ ╪̲ ╦̶̲ " - 8/23/15: See ** post, Luna sends Skype user image of Celestia with background stars. No text, but file name is the same as the content of .txt file linked in earlier dropbox found via in-image code. - 9/9/15: See ** post; Skype user is sent sketchy image of 'sad' Luna. No text. - 9/13/15: See ** post; Skype user is sent sketchy image of miasma-active Celestia with 'eyes' in the background. No text. - See ** post, same day, Skype user is sent sketchy image of Celestia; gameboy is visible in background if gamma modified. No text. - 9/20/15: See ** post, Skype user is sent sketchy image of Earth. Luna indicates by chat that 'day' is somehow 'different'. Meaning unclear. - 9/26/15: Askloona updates: Color image with Luna in the foreground; an astronaut is seen in the distance. - 9/27/15: Askloona updates: Gif of 'sketchy' image of an astronaut. Vaguely similar to 7/19/15 update. No text. - Second update on the same day: Series of four images of an 'eye'. No text. - 9/29/15: Askloona updates: Audio file with repetitive 'beat' noise, unclear context. Maybe slowed down? Accompanying text: " —– – — - —– — ———– — — —— —- / —– — ———– — / —– — ———– — " EDITOR'S NOTE: If this is Morse, I can't figure it out. I tried treating the shorter dashes as dots and vice versa, but got nothing. - 10/4/15: Askloona updates: Heavily blurred image, light section vaguely resembles as '6'. Meaning unclear. No text. - 10/5/15: Askloona updates: Blurred image of Luna on the moon. Camera appears to be on the ground. Accopmanying text: " ▀̶̅▀̅▐̅▀̅|̅▀▀̅|̅▀̶̅▀̅▀̅▐̅|̅▀̅_ " - 10/21/15: Askloona updates: Text only, " -07▀̲̅ " - 10/29/15: Askloona updates: Sketchy gif of numerous 'eyes'. Text: " -1▀ " [Note: In light of the following update, these two are probably a countdown to a major post, as she'd done in the past.] - Second update: Video of an astronaut standing and walking on the moon, recorded from a camera held by the astronaut. Luna appears as a shadow next to the astronaut at the end; astronaut appears to be surprised and is visibly backing away from Luna. Image of Celestia appears for a brief moment at the end. No audio. Accompanying text: " █̲▐̲̲ ̲̲█̲̲▐̲_̲̲▐̲̲ ̲̲█_̲̲▐̲̲ ̲█̲̲▐̲▐̲̲_̲▐̲̲ ̲̲█̲▐̲▐̲̲_̲▐̲▐̲̲_̲̲█̲̲▐̲_̲█̲̲ ̲█̲̲▐̲ " - 11/1/15: Post by Sorel-estia; image shows Astronaut working with a tool on a sensor of some kind. Miasma 'tentacles' are visible on the lower border of the image, suggesting the camera was held by miasma. Accompanying text: " [̷̡͍̌̉]̶̨̻̅̕_̷̙̝̈͝[̷̨͎̀̑]̷̻̰̏͐_̸̗͚̈́̋[̴̢͎̀̊]̸̻̃̎͜_̶̘̼̅́[̴̛̼͉̃]̷̠̞͐̔_̸͓̟͑͝[̴̺̳̐̀]̸̗̙͋͆_̸͈̥̉̄[̶̨̛̭́]̴̗͕̌͗_̴̱̳̀͠[̴̺̻͛̈́]̵͙̃̓͜_̸̢̙̄͑[̴̪̘͑̐]̸̗͈̋̋_̴͚̭̎̚[̴̞̞̇̅]̶̭̙̈́̾_̷̘̞̒͝[̶̢̻̐̒]̶͓̫̑͘_̷̺̜̓͌ " Some similarity to morse? - 11/3/15: Luna posts to /moon/ - >>25311978 - no text, closeup image of miasma-active Luna staring into a camera. Although a gif, no animation appears to be present. No text. - 11/5/15: Askloona updates: In response to question "Do you wish you could see somepony/ponies again? If so, who?" image of Luna stomping on or pointing at an astronaut's footprint on the moon. Camera is held above her, looking down. Accompanying text: " ≡▀≡▀ ". Image is confusing in context of Luna's apparent ability to travel to Earth. Were Astronaut's special somehow? - Same day: Luna contacts skype user, indicates that Celestia 'knew'. Fits in context of older images indicating NMM was allowed to happen. - 11/10/15: Askloona updates: Distorted animation of miasma-active Celestia. Of particular interest is that her throat appears to be cut; the dripping line on her throat does not match her peytral. - 11/13/15: Luna contacts skype user, indicates Celestia is 'dangerous' but has not yet seen the other skype users. - 11/16/15: Skype user is sent distorted, static-ey image of Celestia. No accompanying text, but indecipherable text appears in the background of image. - Same day: ** post: Robyreshy updates a series of old images sent by Luna. For archival purposes, they have been backdated on this archive to their proper dates; see similarly notated posts. - 12/1/15: Askloona updates: Image of Luna looking at a camera. Text addition: " MTIyMzEzMjEyMTMxMjMyMTMyMzExMTMxMzEzMjMxMTExMzEzMjIzMTEyMjINCg== / MjMxMTExMzEzMjEyMjMxMjExMjMxMTMxMTEzMjMxMTEyMg== / MjMxMTExMzEzMjEyMjMxMjIzMTIzMjMyMTIxMzExMTEzMTEyMzExMTMxMjMxMjExMzEyMTEzMjIyMjE= / MTIzMjEzMjExMzIzMTExMTMxMzIxMjIzMTIxMzEzMjEyMTMxMjMxMjExMzEyMTEzMTEzMjEzMjIxMzIyMjIyMzIyMTExMzIyMjExMzIyMjIxMzIyMjIxMzIyMjIyDQo= ". Fed through base64 and then morse decoders, they produce: "WECANTSEETHEM2 / THEYEXIST3 / THEYWATCHUSALL9 / ANDTHEYRECALLING078990". Possibly refers to 'eyes'? - Same day: Skype user is sent image of orbital diagram; appears to show smaller objects in orbit of both moon and Earth, with dotted lines drawn from Earth to moon-object and straight lines drawn from moon-object to Earth-object. Luna indicates "not me", but that she likes the (the objects?) because "they see me". Then indicates they "see" the skype user, and that "they are calling". SPECULATION: Luna has already confirmed she has hijacked old satellites to communicate. Possibly indicates that the truthfulness of her communications depends on whether she is communicating directly to Earth or via Earth-orbit satellite? - 12/7/15: Askloona updates: Animated of Luna on the moon with 3/2/1 flashing in the background. No text. Code allegedly translates to "AONNECG" - not able to translate it myself, need the actual numbers posted. - 12/9/15: Luna sends skype user image of the Earth. Somewhat pixellated, no obvious background images. At this point, the /mlp/ thread begins. > Anon confirms that some of the text portions in updates can be translated - >>25775738 - 10/29/15 video's accompanying text goes to Morse and then "CALLING", 10/5/15 update reads "FIVE". > Askloona background image briefly updates, new images present. >>25775901 - images include Celestia next to the Earth, an eye with the word 'alive', an Apollo lunar lander, 2 sets of line graphs (meaning unclear). > Speculation: It is increasingly clear that the miasma and/Celestia is able to modify or interfere with communications. > 3/2/1 code in 12/9/15 update noted as being similar to a code encountered early on in the archive. That code also remains unsolved. ------ Thread #20, run Thursday 5/12/16 to >>27335509 Update of activity since previous threads: - http://robyreshy.tumblr.com/ continues to act as an archive of Askloona posts. - 12/22/15: Luna posts to /moon/ thread on /mlp/ - >>25847617 - image of the moon's horizon with Earth in background. No text. - 12/24/15: Askloona updates; image of miasma-affected Luna looking at camera. Accompanying text, 'Begin'. - 1/26/16: Askloona updates; image of miasma-affected Luna looking at camera with a lunar mountain in the background. Accompanying text, "ty�cho��". Probably indicates the mountain is the peak at the center of Tycho crater. Note that Tycho crater was visited by Surveyor 7 probe; Luna has previously confirmed using the Surveyor-series probes to communicate. - Same day: Skype user is contacted by Luna, who indicates she missed the contact. When questioned on why she was absent, responds "ty c". Possible indication she was busy or hiding at Tycho crater. - 1/28/16: Tumblr "cookiesoupmusic" receives image of their OC in Loona's style. Numbers on image: "0632_674+18T" - 2/6/16: Askloona updates; image of saddened Luna laying on the moon. Accompanying text: "AS14 64 9088" - 2/17/16: Askloona updates; 'stuttering' stereograph image of Luna on the moon. Accompanying text: "F2c" - 3/2/16: Askloona updates; image of miasma-active Celestia looking at the user. Text on image: "FILE 023 UNNAMED". Accompanying text: "sta_Li4tLS0gLi0tLS0gLi0tLS0gLi4uLS0gLi4tLS0gLi4tLS0gLi4tLS0gLi4uLS0gLi0tLS0gLi4tLS0gLi0tLS0gLi4uLS0gLi0tLS0gLi0tLS0gLi0tLS0gLi4uLS0gLi0tLS0gLi4tLS0gLy8vLyAxMTMyMjMyMTExMzEyMTMxMTMxMTIzMjIvLy8gdHJfcyByZWMgbGFtYmVydA==", translates to "sta_dorsa //// imbrium/// tr_s rec lambert ?" May refer to a dorsal image from the Mare Imbrium; note that it was the site of 2 Apollo landings and a recent Chinese rover. Other meaning unclear, decoding required. - 3/17/16: Askloona updates; in response to the question "Does it even hurt anymore?", image of miasma-affected Luna showing her gameboy displaying 'YES'. Accompanying text: "Hadley" Note that Hadley crater was the landing site for Apollo 15. - 3/18/16: Askloona updates; black and white image of Luna accompanied by text "home". - 4/13/16: Askloona updates, image of Luna with a distorted black-and-white image of miasma-active Celestia in the background. - Same day, Skype user is sent contact from Luna. Provided are coordinates for 3 craters (-30.0686,-17.1030; -44.4755,84.6924; 7.6270,-69.9698). Note that Luna has previously incidated she is active in certain craters; may refer to where she lives. - Same day, Skype user recieves further message: "YOU ARE STILL HERE?", "CANNOT HURT YOU", "SHE STORY" / "SHES TORY"? (Third statement unclear.) At this point, the thread begins again on /mlp/: >>27335509 > Askloona updates with a major video posted. Video found at https://www.tumblr.com/video/robyreshy/144242291985/700/ > Latter half of video is accompanied by 'screaming' noise. > Text seen in video is as follows: "LIVE FROM THE SURFACE OF THE MOON" (accompanied by camera pan until Luna comes into close-up view), "HELLO" (accompanied by black screen), "WELCOME TO THE MOON", "OVEREXPOSURE IS IRREPARABLE", "SHADOWS ARE HAZARDOUS", "THEY FESTER IN LIGHT ABSENCE" (accompanied by video of astronaut working on the moon, with active miasma emerging from rock in the background; camera slowly zooms on miasma-rock), "THEY ARE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY" (black screen), "DO NOT LOCATE THEM" (pan and zoom into lunar landscape), "AVOID FINDING THEM" (black screen), "DO NOT SEE THEM" (image of Tycho crater mountain previously seen in 1/26/16 update), "COME TO US C" (video of miasma-active Luna, camera holder appears to be approaching her), "IT IS AWARE OF YOU" (image of Tycho crater mountain; the top of the mountain breaks off and drifts up out of screen), "ONE IS MISSING" (image of Apollo LM descent stage; stage flickers before vanishing), "THE MOON IS ALL AROUND US" and "IT HAS YOU" (black screen). > Video accompanied by the following text: " □▄██▌□▄██▌□▄██▌M102565253RE" Text found to refer to data from Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter pointing to Luna 13 landing site - see >>27335806 >>27336198 > Several statements are relevant in the context of previous entries: > Images in the past have shown Luna encountering the Miasma in a cave or pit; video corroborates the miasma being active there. > OVEREXPOSURE statement along with Astronaut may imply what was assumed to be hostile contact with Luna was in fact her attempt at maintaining containment by killing astronauts exposed to Miasma. > ONE IS MISSING may imply two things: One, previously referenced secret Apollo 18 mission that made hostile contact with Luna, "missing" referring to the mission being absent from history. Two, it may imply one Apollo unit has been stolen by Miasma/miasma-Celestia for unclear purposes. ------ Thread #20, run - 28050653 ------ I-IV: Art! > Drawfag pops some hilarious art - >>23803632 >>23805460 >>23811221 >>23811696 >>23813123 >>23831568 >>23832387 >>23837358 > Other art - >>23853830 > A poem - >>23811971 >>23812549 > Logo, AESA version 1 - >>23829599 >>23830147 > Logo, AESA vsersion 2 ("gameboy AESA") - >>23830524 >>23830899 (1080p wallpaper version) > What happens when drama arrives in thread: >>23846915 [Thread 14] > >>23913846 - Dead Space Loona > >>23914274 - "Yo, space hoers!" > >>23920260 - Loona creeping on Anon > >>23918596 - Light/Shading practice, and animated: >>23943236 > >>23918732 - Anon rides Loona > >>23920867 - "Sweet dreams, Anon!" > >>23938955 - Loona and Miasma tentacles > >>23939276 - Loona rearing up > >>23939735 - Celestia creeping on Anon > >>23946441 - Creeping on Anon again > Lunatic Loona comic series: Pt. 1 - >>23948210.
