This small, but pretty circle appeared close to Popham Airfield in Hampshire. A classical six-fold design, a hexagram (six-pointed star) sits inside a ring of flattened crop. Each point of the star is divided into a diamond shape where in one half the crop is standing and in the other half it is flattened. The circle measures approximately 100ft. in diameter and is in wheat. Six-fold patterns are one of the most common in crop circle design. Six is the number of best economy, love and harmony. Six is one of the so called ‘perfect’ numbers as it is is the sum of all its divisors.

Geometry
9 diagram file(s) on this page. measured from the diagram itself, and experimental: the extractor's rotational order is right on 88.8 % of a 200-diagram hand-labelled set against a gate of 90 %, so read a number here beside the picture rather than instead of it.
| diagram | rotational symmetry | elements | rings | mirror | fill |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| cc 7d09c18c | ≈ 6-fold score 0.982 | 1 | 2 | 0.81 | 0.3707 |
Experimental, and marked ≈ wherever it appears. These numbers are read off a drawing, not off the field: the extractor's rotational order agrees with a hand-labelled set on 88.8 per cent of 200 diagrams against a gate of 90 per cent, its element count is within one on 97.5 per cent, and its ring count is not calibrated at all. Nothing in the analysis tree is derived from the rotational order while that gate is unmet.
Diagrams that look like these: cc 7d09c18c · ccc f039046c · ccc 7d09c18c · ccc 7174f17a · ccc 8b9d33b3 · ccc 03b03dd9 · ccc 1ffe6c46 · ccc 300104c7— the nearest by perceptual hash. The whole archive is browsable by shape in the shape section, and this formation's own diagrams go straight into that grid: show them in the grid.
