Waiting to thumb a ride on the next beam.
Spotting the mechanism didn't seem too difficult. It involved some Mattnesses I now know to watch for. After that, it was a bit of work getting to the answer.
Confirmed.

Happy to give nudges. If you notice I've solved, please tell me about avenues you've explored so I can nudge you in the right direction and not off a cliff.

Beam me up! Fun! There was a moment of "...what now?" but it passed pretty quickly.

Either I'm getting better at these, or it's easy for a week 3. Unfortunately, I suspect it's the latter. But I'll take it!

On the board. Fun one - I had to backsolve part of it after I saw where it was headed.

Double checking my grid proved immensely helpful on this one. Very enjoyable. Beam me up.

On the board, and I bet I did the same backsolve you did.

Beamed up and on the board. I lost a lot of time erroneously thinking there was an extra piece to this because I had an error in the grid.
