It doesn't sound like Nova. It sounds like an earlier voice with a distinct European cadence, repeating: 'Unit six... core wipe incomplete.' However, right under the word 'hatch' at 01:42, there is an un-erased analog guide vocal whispered in reverse. Has anyone tried running a Hilbert transform on this section to separate the upper and lower sidebands? -- Élodie Weber "The hatch is open. Is anyone listening?"
