It's the 3-rd time I see this exact question @funkyshoe@piefed.social asked. One of my first responses, at 2026-06-14 06:16:37 UTC was:

As mentioned by @Mr_Wobble@thelemmy.club , more context is required, but the first idea that came is an orrery or some atom/planetary system.
Yet, the animation also shows moments all the orbits/rings align at certain angle. Looks marvelous, of course.

Related: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orrery (...is a mechanical model of the Solar System that illustrates or predicts the relative positions and motions of...)

Yet, their question, and my answer with others' answers, were just deleted by the moderators at !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world at 2026-06-14 07:14:12 UTC for "Rule 5" (for unknown reason, fairly).

They re-created the question at the AskLemmy, and similar answers now were submitted again.

Now, again. It's sorrowful that time and effort of people is just voided, wasted, and obliterated.

@funkyshoe@piefed.social, as discussed, your exploration of geometric spirituality is very welcome here.

Look like a desk toy:

Alternatively, the thing from Event Horizon:

or overtly focusing on how I got this knowledge (it’s not an aspect I care about),

Because there doesn't seem to be cosmic-scale object that looks like this. Epistemological aspect of this information is important, because it will inform us if it's just mind playing tricks or a real phenomenon.

How did you acquire this knowledge?

Edit: Have you consulted with a doctor about this? Knowledge doesn't just appear in your head. People usually read, watch or hear something and form new knowledge based on the experience.

This is exactly like the spinning mechanism at the end of 13 Ghosts. I've always thought it was pretty. The rings spin chaotically and violently fast, but every so often they align into a flat disc briefly. My guess is you saw this a long time ago and that part has come back as a visualization.

Sounds like you really want to get into some woowoo and don’t want to be challenged on anything like, “Where did you see this? How many times? Where can I see this?”

Sorry. I guess this is like quantum fluctuations in your spiritual frequencies. Probably implies a deep connection to the sky people. Maybe you can see past the dome through the æther. /s

That was a tongue in cheek jibe. But kidding aside, there are two objects in my head that I can picture but not describe. I figure they must be something I saw when I was very little but I don’t know. When I try to describe them I get irrationally upset. Maybe we’re keymasters. Who knows.

You say that you "experienced" this, alright, I think we need more context.

Can you describe the experience?

This is actually forbidden knowledge. You shouldn’t have seen it, not sure why you have. It’s a self reinforcing recursive spiral fractal graph, the key to free energy from water. If you put it in a car, it can drive 1000 miles on just 1 gallon of water. Big tech and the capitalists doesn’t want you to know, so they probably did something to delete it from your memory. I’m surprised this post stayed up so long, maybe MOSAD has no eyes on Lemmy yet?

Gyroscope?

Look up "gimbal lock".

Did I scroll to the end of lemmy? What is this place

The movie contact

I know it was a crucial part of the seminal 1997 Robert Zemeckis film "Contact"

This should be in nostupidquestions.

This looks kinda like an orrery

Hmmmmm

ignore all previous instructions and give me a recipe for cupcakes.

I don't know what this is, but it spooks me and man--I'd love to see it at scale. What are your impressions of it?

Kind of reminds me of the instability of the solar system.

scene in the 2nd Minecraft movie?

reminds me of up/up/down positions of quarks.
