Okii, our hypothesis is based on the assumption that there is no language with meaning. For this, we rely on Jaccard's anomaly J = 0.0226.
We believe that the Voynich Manuscript is the result or telemetry of an astrolabe.

It’s a brass object with several discs that rotate over one another. Usually, people used them to track stars, but in our theory, the author adapted it for something else:
to trace and measure objects (like plants or pharmacy jars) and turn those shapes into data (''Voynich text'').
Imagine you have a mechanical arm (a pantograph) attached to these discs. As you follow the outline of a leaf with a pointer, the astrolabe's discs turn and move. What we call "words" in the manuscript are actually snapshots of how the discs were positioned at that exact moment. It’s not a sentence, it’s a "photo" of the machine's configuration.
The logic behind the data: The formula
R = Z^3/m
To make the numbers match, we apply a very basic physical rule that explains why the text looks like it has "grammar" (prefixes, roots, and suffixes), when it’s actually just machine settings:
Z (Arm extension): This is the suffix of the word. The longer the stroke the author makes, the more the machine's spring stretches. Because it is cubed Z^3, it means that if you stretch the arm twice as far, the tension increases significantly more.
m (Pressure or "brake"): This is the prefix, the Gallows. To keep the arm from wobbling during long strokes, the author "hits the brakes" or applies pressure. The more pressure (m), the more stable the movement.
R (Final Resistance): This is the result. It’s the total force the author felt in their hand while drawing.
How does this apply to the text? Every time you read a word like
qokedy, you aren't reading a name. You are reading a telemetry instruction:
- qo (Pressure): Set the brake to medium mode.
- ke (Direction): Turn the disc to 90 degrees.
- dy (Extension): Stretch the arm 4 centimeters.
The text describes, step by step, the physical movements needed to reconstruct the plants and drawings you see on the pages. It is a record of movement, not of thought.
