Description

The cause of the solar radiation resonance observed around the corona of … turned out to be an unusual crystal formation capable of enduring the heat!

Having brought the crystal aboard, our … were startled to realize that the strange resonance was reproducible. First, they exposed the crystal to the same solar radiation from …, producing an identical result to the initially recorded phenomenon. It also seemed to create resonances with all energy waves we sent through it, forming new colors and sounds never before observed by …!

Such frequencies could change the way we view the universe. Alternatively, we can develop research applications for a crystalline structure capable of surviving the intense heat of a star.
