Regarding the new media that just dropped: potential code?

I received a notification over Telegram about an unusually formatted passcode: futureanomalyeventspredicted. At first glance it didnt seem special; 21xm, 21resos, 21xmps, and 21US. 21 seemed like a wierd number to pick, since most passcodes give 1331xm. But weirder still is the fact that another media, SIGINTVVVWIT08, linked to a research article about something eclipsing a star, which I linked to here. The star’s name is actually in the passcode: VVVWIT08, which leaves SIGINT as a potential message.
However, this is where I got stuck, and could use some help. Is the article actually real? Does it contain any codes? Why are there two versions that the database lets you cite?

The article is real. It's being published in a peer-reviewed journal.
arXiv.org allows authors to replace one version of a paper with another — for example, to correct typos or to make minor clarifications — hence, the possibility for multiple versions.
I see. So this astronomical event is likely just a way to introduce a plot point?
Still, they could use a phrase from the article as a key for another code, so Hidden messages aren’t entirely off the table.
You should perhaps look into where
futureanomalyeventspredicted
came from. Did you see today's update in the scanner's NEWS tab? 😉I did now. Are you referring to the location on the forum thread or the numbers int he news feed?
He is referring to the numbers on the news feed.
I think a quick tour to Essex(or Lycaeum, if you can cross the language barrier) will be more helpful. And welcome, potential decoder. I started decoding to find out where the passcodes came from, and what they mean.
Was that media dropped by portal? I got it from another passcode... haven't hacked much today to get second copy
Edit... I know understand your message completely...
I had tried to join that telegram group, but i think the link was broken.
Okay. At first glance, they look like page, paragraph, and word numbers, referring to the paper linked. But the last set of numbers (16.15.4) doesnt have a corresponding 15th paragraph on the 16th page. Even if it did, the message didnt make much sense. Perhaps I’m looking at it in the wrong way?
Almost correct. Except, the format is page, line, and word. Try it again and see what you get out of it. ;)
It was the future anomaly events predicted thing, wasn’t it? Hopefully, I won’t be this late to a clue when the lore starts up fully.
@Ishira and @InvestigateXM might be able to help with that, if you're still interested, and it still needs sorting out.
Grr, why is the link expired.
@MantacidTech, if you wanna join Essex, use this link: https://t.me/joinchat/QQ5HRJForsTWhqc1
Thank you so much for the link!
Indeed, it was. Glad you got it. 😁
