Reconstruction of the
2023 Chillandham Lane (1) formation
1. Draw a circle. Draw the horizontal and vertical centerlines.
2. Construct the "two-points" circle (defined by the two end-points of a centerline) between the righthand intersection of circle 1 with the horizontal, and its upper intersection with the vertical centerline.
3. Draw the connecting line between the centers of circles 1 and 2, and extend this line upto circle 1.
4. Construct the "two-points" circle between the intersection of circle 1 with line 3, and its upper intersection with the vertical centerline.
5. Draw the connecting line between the centers of circles 1 and 4, and extend this line upto circle 1.
6. Construct the inscribed octagon (regular 8-sided polygon) of circle 1, with an angular point on the intersection of circle 1 and line 5.
7. Construct the "two-points" circle between the upper intersections of circle 1 and octagon 6 with the vertical centerline.
8. Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the center of circle 7.
9. Construct the inscribed octagon of circle 8, with an angular point on the intersection of circle 8 and line 5.
10. Draw the connecting line between the lefthand and righthand angular points of octagon 9, just above the horizontal centerline.
11. Repeat step 10 seven times, with respect to the other corresponding pairs of angular points of octagon 9.
12. Repeat step 10 with respect to the corresponding pair of angular points of the octagon enclosed by lines 10 and 11, as shown.
13. Repeat step 12 similar to step 11, as shown.
14. Circles 1 and 8, octagon 9, and lines 10, 11, 12, and 13, are used for the final reconstruction.
15. Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself.
16. Colour all areas corresponding to standing...
17. ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the 2023 Chillandham Lane (1) formation.
18. The final result, matched with the aerial image.
