Why would anyone conclude that the timeloop is accidental?


** While its effect can be muted somewhat if [[AnachronicOrder it's found after visiting the Ash Twin Project]], reading the words [[spoiler:"22 minutes"]] in the High Energy Lab is your first indication that [[spoiler:the time loop isn't accidental after all]].

None


* MentalTimeTravel: This is more-or-less how the statues and the resulting StableTimeLoop works; each statue is recording the memories of whoever it's paired with and, [[spoiler:using the incredible amount of energy from the supernova explosion, launches those memories back in time into the mind of its partner at around the time they paired with the statue. This also includes memories from any previous loops]].

The quantum moon is very clearly explained


** The Quantum Moon. [[spoiler:Just finding the Moon is difficult enough, as it is constantly teleporting to different locations around the solar system and the only way to lock it down is to directly observe it. Then, in order to move it to the mysterious sixth location, you have manipulate the Nomai quantum tower to appear on the Moon's north pole, and then turn off the lights and turn them back on to teleport the Moon through its set locations until you reach the sixth location. Thankfully, finding the Quantum Moon is an optional objective, and only needed for achieving the Golden Ending.]]



** Reaching The Vessel [[spoiler: requires navigating through a tight cluster of blind Anglerfish without making too much sound via thrusting. But it can be made easier by leaving your spaceship behind, making yourself much smaller. Alternatively, if you fly into the red node fast enough, inertia will carry you past them without the need for additional thrust]].

Even if you could maneuver your ship they're so close together it doesn't look like theres a path through. Turns out you can glide straight through them using nothing but momentum]].
