Ginny ping!

45 — a good MAGA number for the Red Planet’s whirling girl.

Adam [אדם] meaning “red” = 45, and Mars represents every man (♂️).

MRS HELICOPTER:

Because there's somebody for everybody, even Mars (every man).

Filled with Ingenuity, Ginny (nickname for a Virginia), replaced that Scarlet A in the red "worm" font.

Thanks to Perseverance, a fitting bride is made ready!

Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

Living parables. Life on Mars.

Route of Flight From Airfield Zeta to Airfield Eta

7🔴8

The progression from 49 to 50 has, as its precedent, the stepping stone from 7 to 8. The soul is likened to the 7th center of holiness within the body that sanctifies the 6 directions of the physical world toward spiritual pursuits.2 Through this process, the soul is able to elevate itself, and the body with it, toward perfection.3 In number terms, the 7 is elevated beyond to reach 8, which is synonymous with entry onto the higher transcendental plane.4 And the arrival at 50 similarly marks the entry into this exalted state.

😆

$85 million, shot!

The twitter posts says this was a new record speed but it doesn’t match the stats on their own flight log (what I already posted as the source link).

>>>

Zoom! Ingenuity completed Flight 45 – setting a new groundspeed record.

The #MarsHelicopter traveled 1,627 ft (496 m) across the Martian surface, flying at a max. of 13 mph (6 meters per second)!

I'm pretty sure those are Martian sandworms. What else could they be?

That’s some weird Gnostic/New Age stuff. I’m not sure what it has to do with a helicopter on Mars.

From 7 to 8 -- it's the simple airfield change.

YMMV

Actually it’s very old - ancient - knowledge. To really understand Ezekiel’s posts, one would have to know Hebrew, Hebrew Gematria, have a good understanding of ancient Jewish holy books, and comprehensive knowledge of Judaism.

All of that, and almost encyclopedic information on popular culture, spanning many decades.

Oh my.

It's just the simple observations, adding up over time.

Parables... explaining broader patterns (abstract concepts) by way of down-to-earth analogies, by examples from the basic workings of the real world.

Weird. Totally different than the usual rockscape.

They’re continuing to really load up the flight schedule:

Flight: 46
Flight date: No earlier than 02/25/2023
Horizontal flight distance: 1,461 feet (445 meters)
Flight time (nominal, w/ max divert): 136.27 seconds
Flight altitude: 40 feet (12 meters)
Heading: Southwest
Flight speed: 11.9 mph (5.3 meters per second)
Goal of flight: Reposition of the helicopter and scout future airfields

It’s as if they sure are in a big hurry to get somewhere.
