Hi all. This thread is to track the line of thought that the 20 ‘possible heavenly bodies’ are actually clues to physical locations within the world. Given the same locations like Paris and St Petersburg keep coming up, it’s likely there are a handful of locations covered by these 20 clues. If in doubt on a location, my humble suggestion would be to start looking in one of the places we already know are covered. Or a location that can cover multiple unsolved clues.
Please keep this thread to the task of finding real world locations to match these clues, and trying to come up with an overriding reason and solution to these locations. I’ve tried to pull every bit of corroborated findings out of the main thread into here. I apologize if I miss some. This post will be a wiki, so feel free to update it as necessary.

Edited another link to the original Lost Athanaeum post. Won’t hurt to periodically drop back in and see if our friend the librarian has any more information to share.
I think what I’ll do in the morning, if someone wants to merge the maps again, sort the locations into layers again etcetc, is use my desktop computer and see if I can overlay the other constellations at all with the guesswork we have.
One needs to go in the US, which is somewhere to start.
One in the US and one in Asia might give us the 4. But yeah, I’ll export your map to add it to my one and sort the layers out. I’m also going to take a look at what we’ve both got so far and merge them porperly rather than the “Inky’s Map” layer, cause a lot of the points are on both anyway.
Where did the Iranian point info come from? (if you could edit the tags so it says which clue it relates to on the map, much appreciated, easier to see how many locations for one clue we have too)
Tags editted with descriptions showing where the place came from (unless it’s pretty self explanitory). All points now marked with the corisponding clue (again, unless self explanitory).
