They do look similar to the ones seen here...

One of our alumni pointed out that the 3 objects vaguely look like the buffer stops you would find at the end of a railroad track.

Quick edit to help pages load faster. The artifact is attached to the machine, and it appears that everywhere the machine exists, this artifact will probably exist. If we project the scale and position of this artifact to the main machine the middle, I believe this artifact is somewhere in the steam pipes behind the machine.

Therefore, it may just be a photoshop copy error. Alternatively, since this artifact is only seen when we view an inverted representation of the machine, the top piece of it may be pointing at something. To me, the artifact kind of looks like a sign post.

I would like to see someone overlay the image three times and use the artifact as the origin and use the artifact to scale the images. So you would have three images where the artifact was in the same position and the same size in each image. I doubt that anyone went through the trouble to create a puzzle out of the image but you never know.

This Artifact is just part of the end of the conveyor belt shown elsewhere several times:


I'm more curious about this Bin on a Pallet:

Excellent observation. Now it looks like that layer wrapped around in photoshop before they duplicated and flattened it. In the case of the lower-left graphic of the machine, it looks like they re-purposed the chopped-off conveyor (at the top of the machine) to be a steam pipe.

Wow, those are really crisp pictures, and I now also agree that there must if been some photo editing error on their part adding the end of the conveyor to anywhere with that machine
Thanks!

But is it just the end of a conveyor? It looks suspiciously like a fence to me... Where is there a similar-looking fence-like object? As for the sign post idea, it does look like it has a sign on top.

That may actually be another Steampunk-ish flying machine. It's at the top center flying. Looks way more like a submarine but it seems to be flying like a charm.

Amphibious submarine?

Yeah....I haven't a clue where Lynn or those teams are located.

The flying submarine I have observed seems to be the duplicate of the submarine parked on the ground in the bottom center of the picture.

Discuss.

In the announcement thread someone said they looked like calipers

The Dot by Lake Michigan isn't actually there if you look in the video.

Bingo. I knew it looked "cut off" and odd. Now I can inform my team their hour of "enhancing" the image after school was wasted.
