Attached photographs (1)

inferred link These pictures did not come with a source record of this formation. Each one is a single-photograph archive entry whose own date and place the index matched to this formation; nothing about the formation itself comes from them. The rule, the score and the evidence are printed with each record so the link can be checked, and the credit stays with the photograph.

Claims about this formation

24 claim(s) extracted by lexicon from the texts above, written by Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew), Temporary Temples. A claim row is a record of what an author wrote, with the sentence verbatim. It is not evidence about the formation, and nothing here is tested on this page.

Up to 3 quote(s) per type, verbatim from the document:

• “We should meet them soon.” prediction · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “A crop picture near Mere, England on June 6, 2016 shows the schematic outline of a “Wheatstone Bridge”, which has been “connected to ground” through the bulk of Castle Hill nearby.” comparison · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “One other example of a “Wheatstone Bridge” may have been drawn in crops near Stanton St. Bernard on August 17, 1998 (thanks to J.M., see www.lucypringle.co.uk).” comparison · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “IMAGE THE CROP CIRCLE CONNECTOR COPYRIGHT 2016” comparison · source page
• “The crop artists needed to find a “large hill” by which to “ground” their device, but large hills may be found all across southern England.” authorship_et · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “Ha ha, those space-faring extra-terrestrials seem to live everyday lives just like our own!” authorship_et · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “The “crop artist” who drew this field diagram is evidently an electrical engineer, and thought it would be appropriate to express his emotions in that way.” authorship_et · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “The “Wheatstone Bridge” is often used as a “strain gauge”, and indeed certain images in the landscape near this new crop picture seem to reveal why it was drawn there!” landscape · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “In order to answer that question, we studied the field location of this crop picture very carefully using Google Earth (at latitude 51.0955o N, longitude 2.2750o W).” landscape · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “Unlike the many tumuli and the neolithic hill fort at nearby White Sheet Hill, the large mound by the side of this formation is known as Castle Hill (or Mere Castle) – with an ajoining long hill, named appropriately Long Hill – is a relatively modern construction.” landscape · Temporary Temples · source page
• “Over the past 20 years, many different electromagnetic principles and/or devices have been drawn schematically as “crop pictures” in agricultural fields worldwide.” science · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “For example, we have seen detailed images of the magnetic field (see fringe2012a), many different plans for homopolar motors (see fringe2014s), a radiant energy receiver of the kind envisaged by Nicola Tesla in 1905 (see fringe2012c), or Ed Leedskalnin’s magnetic flywheel from Coral Castle1930 (see time2012r).” science · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “First we have an “input voltage” at the top, which proceeds through two parallel wire paths down to “electrical ground”.” science · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page

Geometry

10 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.

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 bf7d0956 · ccc fc84ec30 · ccc 7109197f · ccc 8b9ab9c4 · ccc 2b9f5ef4 · tt aa042dc0 · tt 0400f6db · tt c0f12517 · tt e0cfac9d— 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.
