This is ground control to "the Lopez". Do you copy?We are picking up some interference in the comms system, is everything alright?
Lopez, do you copy?
*khhrrzt*
This is Quarter 1 Co-Leader Kaiaa, we copy!Yes, everything is alright, however, Gulliver has vanished! We can’t find him on the ship anywhere. Last I saw him, he was sleep walking and mumbling something about wanting to collect some rocks and flora for a project he’s working on. Over.

Thank you for the prompt response, Quarter 1 Co-Leader Kaiaa. Don’t worry about Gulliver, he tends to go missing off every ship he works on. We’re sure he’ll be alright. Again, what about the interference? Have you noticed any strange signals coming your way? Over.*khhrrzt*
Oh, yes! Sorry about that. I believe Quarter 4 Co-Leader Mistreil mentioned something about that too --- oh wait, it sounds like something is coming in now!Mission Objective
Good morning campers… or is it night? It’s hard to tell when you’re floating around up here in space!
Anyway, I am looking for the best code breakers your Quarters have to offer to help me wrap my head around these mysterious beeps and pings we are getting. I’ve already figured out that some of these noises are associated with the letters of the English alphabet, but they still seem so jumbled up. Can you take a look at this and see if you can make any sense of it?

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I play?
Look at the code and the corresponding boxes below. Each letter and box are arranged in columns. Each letter will fall directly below into one of the white boxes that correspond with its column. When you have placed all letters in their correct place, a message will be revealed. Try to start with the easy words first and be sure to cross off the letters you already used so you don't get confused.
I already figured out the puzzle, can I just message everyone in my Quarter the answer for easy points?
While I can’t stop you, this is discouraged because 1, if you and everyone post the wrong information, no one receives anything and 2, that is disrespectful to the time and work our Admin, Moderators, and Project Staff have put into making this a fun experience for you and everyone else. Try to remember the spirit of Camp isn’t just to win, it’s to have fun! Now, if you want to do group work for these puzzles, get a few of your Quarter mates together to try and figure it out!
Do I need to submit my answer in text form or upload an image of the completed puzzle?
Whichever is easiest for you, so long as it's correct!
Can I upload an image in my private submission instead of typing it out?
Yes!
Who do I contact for questions about this event?
