*The Darkness bears resemblance to the [http://mythipedia.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Dark Armies of the Dark] and its [http://mythipedia.wikia.com/wiki/Leveler leader] in [[Bungie]]'s ''[[Myth]]'' series—a resurgent dark force that is the antithesis to the (forces of) Light. | *The Darkness bears resemblance to the [http://mythipedia.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Dark Armies of the Dark] and its [http://mythipedia.wikia.com/wiki/Leveler leader] in [[Bungie]]'s ''[[Myth]]'' series—a resurgent dark force that is the antithesis to the (forces of) Light. | ||

*The Darkness being flagged as Acausal indicates that it has no cause-effect relationship. The simplest explanation is that the event heralding its arrival had no known mechanism from which to derive said cause and effect. It is also possible that it may be acting on an effect-then-cause relationship, or that it is being directed by future inputs. | *The Darkness being flagged as Acausal indicates that it has no cause-effect relationship.

*Sterile neutrinos are hypothetical particles (leptons) which do not interact via any of the Standard Model interactions (strong force, weak force, etc.) except for gravity. They are believed to be responsible for a number of unexplained astrophysical phenomena, including dark matter and dark radiation, neither of which are currently detectable through any portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, except for gravity. | *Sterile neutrinos are hypothetical particles (leptons) which do not interact via any of the Standard Model interactions (strong force, weak force, etc.) except for gravity.

*Gravity waves are generated when an object or event interacts with the curvature of spacetime in such a manner as to create changes in that curvature, which then ripple outward away from the event at the speed of light (or 186,000 miles per second) in a wave-like manner. In reference to the ISR report, the event which triggered the SKYSHOCK alert lasted 0.3 seconds, which suggests that whatever displaced local spacetime during the event measures some 55800 miles in diameter (assuming a spherical shape), making it larger than the planet Neptune. | *Gravity waves are generated when an object or event interacts with the curvature of spacetime in such a manner as to create changes in that curvature, which then ripple outward away from the event at the speed of light (or 186,000 miles per second) in a wave-like manner.
