During the quest “On the Trail of a Traitor” in The Outer Worlds 2, you’ll be sent up through the Order’s Alexandra Monastery, a grand structure with a lot of secrets hidden within. As you reach the summit and approach your destination, you’ll come across the observatory, where you’ll see a lot of different models of the solar system on which you reside, and on a nearby terminal, there’s a scavenger hunt puzzle that requires you to learn about how it works.

We’ll explain this puzzle, how to solve it, and tell you the solution so you can get the rewards on offer.

The terminal will ask you to input three numbers that correspond to the answer to these three riddles about the solar system:

  • The number of moons that orbit Elysium
  • The number of moons that orbit between Dorado and Elysium
  • The number of times Eden orbits Elysium before Praetor and Cloyster complete a single rotation.

You can use the information panels in the observatory to work out which planet it which, but to figure out the specifics of the model, you’ll need to head back outside to the courtyard, where a big model of the system and how it orbits lies above the gazeebo in the middle.

By inspecting this model you can figure out the following answers:

  • Four moons orbit Elysium
  • One moon orbits between Dorado and Elysium
  • Four is the number of times Eden orbits Elysium in a rotation of Praetor and Cloyster.

This means the code to input is 4-1-4.
