Reconstruction of the 2026 First Broad Drive formation | ||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. |
| 2. |
| Draw the connecting line between the center of circle 1 and its upper intersection with the vertical centerline. Divide this line into five equal parts. Number the division nodes from the center upwards 1 - 4. |
| 3. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through node 2 nr. 1. |
| 4. |
| Construct a circle centered at node 2 nr. 3, passing through node 2 nr. 1. |
| 5. |
| Construct a circle centered at node 2 nr. 3, passing through node 2 nr. 4. |
| 6. |
| Construct a circle centered at the upper intersection of circle 1 and the vertical centerline, passing through node 2 nr. 4, and move this circle (copy and delete original) to its own upper intersection with the vertical centerline. |
| 7. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 6, passing through node 2 nr. 1. |
| 8. |
| Construct a "two-points" circle (defined by the two end-points of a centerline) between the upper intersections of circles 4 and 5 with the vertical centerline. |
| 9. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 4, passing through the center of circle 9. |
| 10. |
| Draw the connecting line between the mutual intersections of circles 1 and 7. |
| 11. |
| Construct two inscribed equilateral triangles of circle 9, one pointing to the left, one pointing to the right. |
| 12. |
| Construct a circle centered at the upper intersection of circle 9 and the vertical centerline, passing through the upper mutual intersection of triangles 11. |
| 13. |
| Construct a circle centered at the intersection of line 10 and the righthand vertical side of triangles 11, passing through the upper rightmost intersection of triangles 11 and circle 5, as shown. |
| 14. |
| Copy circle 13 two times, to the intersections of circles 9 and 12. |
| 15. |
| Copy circle 12 to the lower intersection of circle 9 and the vertical centerline. |
| 16. |
| Copy circle 13 two times, to the intersections of circles 9 and 15. |
| 17. |
| Construct a "two-points" circle between the upper intersections of circles 4 and 12 with the vertical centerline. |
| 18. |
| Copy circle 17 to the center of circle 1. |
| 19. |
| Construct two lines, parallel to the vertical centerline, tangent to circles 17 and 18 at both sides. |
| 20. |
| Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. |
| 21. |
| Copy circles 4, 5, 6, 7, 14, and 16, and lines 19, two times, from the top of triangle 20, to the other angular points, while rotating around the center of circle 1. |
| 22. |
| Circles 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 14, and 16, lines 19, and patterns 21, are used for the final reconstruction. |
| 23. |
| Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. |
| 24. |
| Colour all areas corresponding to standing... |
| 25. |
| ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the 2026 First Broad Drive formation. |
| 26. |
| The final result, matched with the aerial image. |
