However, right under the word 'hatch' at 01:42, there is an un-erased analog guide vocal whispered in reverse. It doesn't sound like Nova. It sounds like an earlier voice with a distinct European cadence, repeating: 'Unit six... core wipe incomplete.' Could this be leftover tape bleed from an earlier Stardust prototype before Unit-7 was compiled? -- Astrid Petrov -- European Laboratory for Particle Physics, Geneva "5 sigma is a discovery. 7 is a question."
