Reconstruction of the 2012 Milk Hill (2) formation | ||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. |
| 2. |
| Construct two inscribed equilateral triangles of circle 1, one pointing to the left, one to the right. |
| 3. |
| Construct a circle passing through the lefthand angular point of triangles 2, and passing through their upper and lower mutual intersections. (This circle is the half of a "Vesica Pisces", inscribed in circle 1). |
| 4. |
| Repeat step 3 five times, with respect to the other angular points and corresponding mutual intersections of triangles 2. |
| 5. |
| Construct a circle (concentric to circle 1) passing through the outer set of mutual intersections of circles 3 and 4. |
| 6. |
| Construct a circle centered at the righthand intersection of circle 1 and the horizontal centerline, tangent to circle 5 at the righthand side. |
| 7. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 6 at the righthand side. |
| 8. |
| Construct a horizontal line, tangent to the upper two circles 4 at the upper sides. |
| 9. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to line 8. |
| 10. |
| Construct the circumscribed equilateral triangle of circle 9, pointing down. |
| 11. |
| Construct the circumscribed circle of triangle 10. |
| 12. |
| Construct the inscribed circle of circles 3 and 4. |
| 13. |
| Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 12, pointing up. |
| 14. |
| Construct the inscribed circle of triangle 13. |
| 15. |
| Construct a "two-points" circle (defined by the two end-points of a centerline) between the center of circle 1 and the righthand intersection of circle 14 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 16. |
| Construct two inscribed equilateral triangles of circle 15, one pointing to the left, one to the right. |
| 17. |
| Construct a circle passing through the lefthand angular point of triangles 16, and passing through their upper and lower mutual intersections. |
| 18. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 17 at the righthand side. |
| 19. |
| Copy circle 18 to the righthand intersection of circle 14 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 20. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 19 at the righthand side. |
| 21. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 3, tangent to circle 20 at the righthand side. |
| 22. |
| Copy circle 21 five times, to the centers of circles 4. |
| 23. |
| Construct a circle centered at the righthand intersection of circle 3 and the horizontal centerline, tangent to circle 21 at the righthand side. |
| 24. |
| Copy circle 23 to the righthand intersection of circle 7 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 25. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 24 at the righthand side. |
| 26. |
| Copy circle 15 to the righthand intersection of circle 11 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 27. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 26 at the lefthand side. |
| 28. |
| Circles 1, 3, 4, 7, 11, 14, 18, 21, 22, 25 and 27, are used for the final reconstruction. |
| 29. |
| Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. |
| 30. |
| Colour all areas corresponding to standing... |
| 31. |
| ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the 2012 Milk Hill (2) formation. |
| 32. |
| The final result, matched with the aerial image. |
