Reconstruction of the 2005 Marden (2) formation | ||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. |
| 2. |
| Construct the inscribed 18-sided regular polygon of circle 1, pointing to the right. |
| 3. |
| Construct a circle centered at the rightmost angular point of polygon 2, passing through the fourth angular points (up and down) from this point, as shown. |
| 4. |
| Copy circle 3 seventeen times, to the other angular points of polygon 2. |
| 5. |
| Construct the circumscribed 18-sided regular polygon of circle 1, pointing to the right. |
| 6. |
| Construct the circumscribed circle of polygon 5. |
| 7. |
| Construct two circles centered at the intersections of circle 6 and the horizontal centerline, each passing through the center of the other (Vesica Pisces). |
| 8. |
| Circles 3, 4, 6 and 7 are enough for the final reconstruction. |
| 9. |
| Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. |
| 10. |
| Colouring all areas corresponding to standing... |
| 11. |
| ...or to flattened crop, will finish the reconstruction of the 2005 Marden (2) formation. |
| 12. |
| The final result, matched with the aerial image. |
