I was just playing Astral Codec for the first time, and I was exploring the surface of Dark Bramble. Suddenly, it felt hard to stay on the surface, and there was a force pulling me off of the planet. I was very confused, until I saw that Giant's Deep was actually pulling me off of Dark Bramble, because its gravity well is so large that it overlaps that of Dark Bramble's. Lesson learned, don't explore the surface of Dark Bramble when Giant's Deep is near. Or don't explore Dark Bramble at all, actually.

if you've played the astral codec mod for outer wilds: help

I'm basically at the end and feeling really dumb. what does it mean to "pass it onwards through the vortex"? what vortex??

or am I just reading into it too much and it's not literal and I've finished the thing

edit: OH WAIT DO I NEED TO REDO THE ENDING AND THEN SEND MY SCOUT INTO THE VORTEX WE JUMP INTO???
