Waratah.
Waratah. A name of one of the many symposiums Niantic researchers participated in. One of the places Remote Participation Experiments (RPE) was conducted. Stein Lightman and Edgar Allan Wright both spoke of this place and the RPEs that happened there. But unlike most of the Niantic experiments or symposiums, it seemed to not be named after a sailing vessel. And for the longest time I thought it had been named after a flower. which was strange but it's Niantic. Strange is their middle name if they have one...
then the rabbit hole I had been standing on opened up and here I am.
Waratah is a cursed name, if you are a ship on your way to Australia.
The first to go down was Captained by Alexander Volum. There really isn't much on this. A few articles can be found on Trove, which is website from the National Library of Australia. The particular article about the 1848 can be found at this website: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/12913855
Gale winds so strong, the ship attempting to rescue them couldn't finish evacuations due to damage to their own ship.
Then you have the SS Waratah. A cargo/passenger ship steamer. It set sail for Australia in 1909 and disappeared off the coast of Cape Town, and has yet to be found. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Waratah http://www.numa.net/expeditions/waratah/
And according to Wikipedia, there have been a number of other ships named Waratah that have wrecked in and around Australia itself.
It's strange really. Waratah, a doomed ship/a company's symposium. Maria Celeste and the Whydah, shipwrecked vessels/ NIA RPE experiments. Niantic, an abandoned ship/a company name.
Maybe Niantic is hoping that the curse only apply to sailing vessels.
