4. The numbers are Coordinates:
So far I find this the single most intriguing and plausible answer.. the Constellation connection
http://www.4815162342.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20522 and the question of time-flow
http://www.4815162342.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=25926 supply one of the the most solid number-theory connections so far.
Although terrestrial coordinates (which requires only four numbers) have given some insight to the location of the island on Earth.. there appears to be mounting evidence that the numbers could be coordinates for looking at the stars (3 numbers for the Right Ascension and 3 numbers for the Declination).
There may even be a pattern that suggests that at least three of the numbers are negative
http://www.4815162342.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=25936 and this would also fit into the coordinate system.
Although this may appear to be a stretch, it is not inconceivable that in searching for a pattern using sequences and systems of linear equations, it would be discovered that three of the numbers summed equal 54 and the other three summed equal 54. In Heuristics sometimes a larger problem leads to the solution of a "sub-problem".
Pacha discovered that
4 + 8 + 42 - 16 - 23 = 15
+ + + + + +
8 + 42 + 4 - 23 - 15 = 16
+ + + + + +
42 + 4 + 8 - 15 - 16 = 23
- - - - - -
16 + 23 + 15 - 8 - 4 = 42
- - - - - -
23 + 15 + 16 - 4 - 42 = 8
= = = = = =
15 + 16 + 23 - 42 - 8 = 4
This doesn't seem like much until you look at the definition of a (dramatic music please) VECTOR. This in turn leads to Polar Coordinates and Celestial Coordinates systems!
(Right Ascension 4h 8m 42 s and Declination 15h 16m and 23 s
or 15h 16m 23s and 4h 8m 23s)
In physics and in vector calculus, a spatial vector, or simply vector, is a concept characterized by a magnitude and a direction. A vector has properties that do not depend on the coordinate system used to describe it. However, a vector is often described by a fixed number of components, each of which is dependent upon the particular coordinate system being used, such as Cartesian coordinates (Connect-Four game), spherical coordinates, or polar coordinates.

Tried different combos using Pacha's pattern and found this.. 15, 16,23 and 4,8,15 point to Serpens Caput.. the constellation formerly known as Cerberus or reversed point to Taurus (specifically Aldeberan)
