Alrighty, I just recently received my copy of Nick's "Curse" from Amazon!
Reading the relevant pages, I see that Nick assigns Venus as #1, f68v2 so that's a match!
But sadly he stops there.
Of course 8 fold symmetry is common and there could be many explanations.
If for the sake of argument we stick with Saturn as #6, f70r1 (and rationalise the goal year discrepancy somehow) then what about the other planets?
I was wondering whether #7 f70r2, which also has a face, could be Jupiter, the king of planets?
If goal year counts are not found in the other drawings, why are they only included for Mercury? Perhaps because Mercury is the most elusive of planets?
