  • Have you guys found any more info/ any attempt at deciphering the Betty Hill alien language drawing?
    I'm not aware of any analysis. Some of the symbols look familiar to anyone with a keyboard, while others not so much. For fun, I took a stab at trying to match them to Unicode characters (using this website) and came up with some possible matches:. Source: 10 months ago
