The Laboratory

Can I take the blue rod?

  1. You can't take it directly, but there are ways to get it.
  2. There is no way to block the beam or turn it off.
  3. The preferred solution starts at D. An alternate solution starts at I.
  4. Have you ever tried putting anything on the sphere and then changing the dial setting?
  5. You will have to learn how to use the red and blue disks before going on.
  6. You could use the disks to enter the sphere ("but it would be wrong"). Put one disk under the sphere and then set the dial to 4. Step on the other disk.
  7. Can you think of a way to get the disk to activate while it is in the sphere?
  8. Put a disk under the sphere. Put something on the sphere. Set the dial to 4. The object placed on the globe will fall onto the disk inside, causing it to activate. Luckily, the blue rod is within range of the disk.
  9. Do you know of anything that might be able to deal with these technologically-advanced forces?
  10. You have probably already used something powerful and similarly advanced.
