Rendlesham Forest Incident binary code message revisited with AI



Here's Jim Penniston binary code from his notebook while witnessing the Rendlesham Forest Incident back in December 26th, 1980, in Rendlesham Forest.  26-year-old Sgt. James Penniston was part of the three-man USAF Security Police team called to investigate the landed craft of unknown origin in Rendlesham Forest.

Here's the binary code decoded by professional binary code expert and researcher Joe Luciano

Another co-ordinate corresponds with the fabled location of the ‘lost continent’ of Hy-Brasil, a supposed sunken island in the Atlantic, off the West coast of Ireland, sometimes dubbed the “Celtic Atlantis”.

Hy-Brasil is a mysterious island appearing on maps from 1325 to the 1800s. In Irish myth, it was said to be clouded in mist except for one day every seven years, when it became visible but still could not be reached. Stories about the island have circulated throughout Europe for centuries, with tales that it was the promised land of saints or a paradise where an advanced civilization lived.






The binary code is input a string without any spaces.

ASCII Decoded 

UTF-8 Decoded 

Unicode Decoded 

Gemini Decoded

See source of code below with formatted spaces.

Okay, I will attempt to decode the binary sequence you provided.

It seems the binary code you've entered has inconsistent spacing and some sequences that are not standard 8-bit (byte) lengths for ASCII characters. To decode it, I'll treat it as one continuous stream of bits, remove any spaces or line breaks, divide it into 8-bit chunks (bytes), and then convert each byte into its corresponding ASCII character.

Processing the Binary:

  1. Concatenating all the binary digits into one long string.
  2. Splitting this string into 8-bit chunks.
  3. Converting each 8-bit chunk to its character equivalent.

Decoded Text:

The decoding process results in a mix of readable text, numbers, symbols, non-printable control characters, and characters that fall outside the standard ASCII range (often represented as '' or similar placeholders, indicating potential extended ASCII, corruption, or a different encoding).

Here is the most readable interpretation based on standard ASCII decoding of 8-bit chunks:

EXPLORATlS#C#S3$3IONCONTINUOUSFUTUREPLANETARY ADVANCE FOR COORDINATION CONTINUOUS FUTURE BEFOREN11W99783N3113164E14701505S7516N0W362568N117100632E3711019Z537228EYES OF YOUR ORIGIN52942532N1313126rORIY

Observations:

  • The text starts clearly with "EXPLORAT".
  • Later sections contain potentially meaningful phrases like "CONTINUOUS FUTURE", "PLANETARY ADVANCE FOR COORDINATION", and "EYES OF YOUR ORIGIN".
  • There are many non-standard characters (represented by '' above) and non-printable control codes mixed in, suggesting the binary data might be corrupted, use a different encoding standard (like UTF-8 where characters can take more than 8 bits), or contain raw data segments interspersed with text.
  • There are sequences of numbers and letters (like N11, W362568, N117100632E3711019, 52942532N1313126) that could possibly represent coordinates, codes, or identifiers.

Due to the inconsistencies and non-standard parts in the original binary, a perfect, clean English translation is not possible using standard ASCII decoding alone.

Claude 3.7 Sonnet Decoded

I'll decode the binary code to English as best I can. Since the formatting has some irregularities, I'll focus on converting the clear 8-bit binary patterns, treating each space or line break as a potential character separator.

From what I can decode:

"EXPLORATION INFINITY CONSCIOUSNESS N13132697 CONTINENT INFORMATION FORCEPLANEUPARY ADVANCE CONNECTIVITY CODEINTELLIGENCE BINARY ADVANCED 81005209332N11313296WC CONTINENT INFORMATION FORCEPLANET EXPLORATORY ADVANCED 671636311N11137180011W 861217N600271981110199 ENERGY CODE 1470S14E 143132640S105 1470N11S01N113164N2ENERGY"

This appears to contain geographic coordinates mixed with conceptual terms like "EXPLORATION," "INFINITY," "CONSCIOUSNESS," "CONNECTIVITY," and references to "CODE" and "INTELLIGENCE."

Would you like me to analyze any specific aspect of this decoded message? It seems to reference exploration of natural phenomena with specific coordinate locations.

**Average Output**: On average, programmers in a production environment might produce about 10 lines of code per day[3][4]. This figure takes into account the entire development process, including planning, coding, testing, and debugging.

Therefore 47 years 9 months 9 days to develop, by 1 developer.

Count the number of lines of code on Windows with Wordpress and WooCommerce examples




There is an excellent opensource utility called CLOC (Count Lines of Code).

Cloc counts blank lines, comment lines, and physical lines of source code in many programming languages, and is quite performative.
