Shadow of This Ephemeral Prisoner

 


The Space window is at location "box-1", marked by the red arrow.


Here is the orientation of the cathedral on the ground. The rise over run square count here is 10 /30, and the arctan of this leads to the cathedral roof line pointing 70 degrees. From the Moon orientation result from Starry Night, we know the shadow will point at 25 degrees. So the Moon rock shadow will project INTO the cathedral.


Double checking the outside of the cathedral, we can orient the Space window as the third bay over from the right (counting the bay with the scaffolding in front of it). 

Don't see anything near the window on the ground that would stand out as an icon in the Four Lock Gate graphic - but with the fencing around the site protecting the public from 2011 earthquake debris, don't think we could walk around the shrubbery to look for flush markers for a while.

We need to find some pictures of the interior area surrounding the Space window, also known as the Warren bay. Charles Warren was a legal scholar (his big book was about the Supreme court) so the bay will be accented with law emblems and symbols. This bay does not get featured on line or in National Cathedral books. So far ...
