If ten states can spell CASSIOPEIA, then what can we spell with eight states?
I cannot find any constellations in the map on page 28 that have eight letters in their names. There is a combination though of Lynx (4) and Lyra (4) constellations, No states have an x in them though.
Cassiopeia was coded 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, I , II, III, IV to get the coding for the letters.
How would we code for an eight letter word?
If Cassiopeia is the clue, the five stars that make it up are Alpha, beta, gamma, delta and epsilon or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. That would leave the remaining letters I, II, III.
Anyone up to trying to run the permutations? Should the ten used states from cassiopeia be eliminated?
