The Weismann Cube

The Weismann Cube was an astronomical object of unknown origin that was discovered by astronomer Rudolph Weismann in Earth’s lower orbit on July 4th, 1981. The 6-ton, 14 wide cube was recovered by The United States military on August 17th, 1981. The cube contained the equivalent of millions of terabytes of data apparently recorded from the dawn of humanity until 2240. Events described in the cube, such as the creation of Triple Play Classic, occurred exactly as predicted until September 7th, 2022, when current events diverged from the cube’s records and were no longer predictable.

Discovery and Retrieval

Rudolph Weismann in 1981

In July 1981, Rudolph Weismann, an astronomer in Lucerne, Switzerland, observed an unidentified object moving in lockstep with a low orbiting satellite. Weismann and his team discovered that the object was a perfect metallic cube, about the size of a small compact car and had seemingly appeared in Earth's orbit instantaneously.

Operation BoxGrab

NASA quickly corroborated Weismann’s data on the object, now named “The Weismann Cube.” They fast tracked development of a recovery mission, Operation BoxGrab, and briefed President Reagan’s aides. It was believed the object a soviet satellite or weapons system gone astray, and the United States Department of Defense was granted total control of the operation, which was made Top Secret.

Operation BoxGrab was the first covert space exploration mission ever carried out by the United States. Bang Thomas piloted the vessel that recovered the cube and safely performed a crash landing in the Pacific Ocean.

Contents of The Cube

The box was analyzed by military officials aboard the USS Independence immediately upon the operation’s completion. The Box reportedly opened on its own, revealing several hundred books, cd’s and cd players, much of which was technology that renowned company Sony had only recently patented. The box contained media depicting Earth events and history extending into to the 23rd century and CD-ROMs with video and audio of those events. In all, over 10,000 hours of video were recovered from the compact discs. The contents of the box were kept hidden from the public until 2021.

Storage and Transfer

The NSA failed to prevent 9/11 despite reviewing Weismann Cube footage of the attacks as early as June 1999.

Ownership of the cube’s complete dataset was transferred to the NSA in December of 1981, where it was stored in an underground air gapped faraday cage until 2001.

Following the September 11th attacks, NSA faced pressure for not utilizing the cube to prevent 9/11. An internal NSA memo dated June 3rd, 1999 references dozens of hours of news footage related to the attacks. Director of Central Intelligence George Tenet accepted the transfer of The Weismann Cube to the Directorate for Science and Technology at a meeting of the National Security Council at Camp David on September 15, 2001.

Deputy Director for the Directorate for Science and Technology Joanne Isham assembled a team of elite scientists known as BOXCRACK in October 2001. Isham personally recruited Weismann and his team, citing their intimate relationship to the box. For the next 20 years, BOXCRACK analyzed the cube, mostly confirming the current events continued to align with the events recorded in the cube.

Leak

In January 2021, the entire BOXCRACK team died from nausea while riding a marry-go-round during an office holiday party in Bogota, Colombia. Rudolph Weismann had been maintaining a dead man’s switch containing a smuggled copy of the complete Weismann dataset, and his death triggered its publication.

The box data was published on BoxAnswers.com, but the website was quickly taken offline. Fragments of the website’s cache were recovered, most of which described humanity’s colonization of Mars in 2045. The box’s contents depict media company MeMoreTV as being heavily involved in the development of Mars, and colonists would depend on a streaming service called Triple Play Classic.

MeMoreTV, interested in fulfilling the box’s projection, hired Skeleton Realm to produce a documentary titled “FUTURE HISTORY REVEALED?”

Origin

Little is known about the cube’s origin. The analysis performed by BOXCRACK revealed the box was created around 2240 and was transported faster-than-light towards Alpha Centauri, where it arrived 4 years later. At some point, it was transported back to Earth’s orbit, arriving in 1982.
