the radial lines must mark distances to some reference objects, these
objects cannot be common stars. We can be missing dim stars, despite our
bests surveys. There is, however, one kind of star that can be detected
at large distance easily, and has very distinctive features: pulsars.
We have been measuring their frequencies with several significant
digits, so that could constitute a fingerprint. Since the rotation
period of a pulsar changes with time, depending on the strength of their
magnetic field and initial angular momentum, we have no guarantee on
their accuracy as a marker, but given the large number, that could
compensate for it. Pulsars also tend to have high proper motions (by
"pulsar kicks" when they're born in supernova explosions). Again, maybe
the number will compensate for that. But knowing their frequency
only allows for their individual location, so the data strings must be
independent of the lines they are attached to. I propose the distance is
the length from the center point to the first | mark, and the rest is
the frequency. Some data streams are not attached, and that justifies
this approach. We must measure this shit. Also, there is a very long
line towards the right, without any marker. Given the long distances
involved, it must represent the distance to the galactic center, again
at scale. If we pinpoint the pulsars and make the measurements, we
could put some useful constraints on their location. Also, since we
can measure the rate of change of pulsar rotation with time, we can
determine the time has passed after the launch.>>330370 this is how
