I Have Found Out What The Zanuka Project Is

So long and thanks for all the fish

So sad that it should come to this

We tried to warn you all but oh dear?

You may not share our intellect

Which might explain your disrespect

For all the natural wonders that

grow around you

So long, so long and thanks

for all the fish

The world's about to be destroyed

There's no point getting all annoyed

Lie back and let the planet dissolve(around you)

Despite those nets of tuna fleets

We thought that most of you were sweet

Especially tiny tots and your

pregnant women

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long and thanks

for all the fish

If I had just one last wish

I would like a tasty fish

If we could just change one thing

We would all have none to sing.

Come one and all

Man and Mammal

Side by Side in life's great gene pool

(oooohhh oooohhh oooaahhhhh- ah ahh)

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long and, !Thanks!

for all the fish!

Alright, let's break this down:

What do we know about Neptune? It's the home of the Corpus and the site of their INDOCTRINATION TEMPLES. WARFRAME and robotics R&D and HIDDEN there. It's clear the Corpus are planning on working on the captured Tenno on Neptune. It's clear they will brainwash the Tenno, perform experiments, and as the Corpus always do, attempt to integrate robotics into the Tenno's Warframe armor.

But when we look closely, we can see the fine details. Neptune is the Roman god of the Sea. Every node on Neptune is named after a sea god or a nereid (sea nymph), with the exception of Triton. Let's take a closer look at Triton.

What do we know about Triton? In mythology, Triton was a merman and a messenger for Poseidon. In the Star chart, it is at the end of a long chain of nodes which do not connect to another planet or a boss. Currently, Triton is tied for being the second most obscure nodes in the game (distance from a node that connects to a boss or another planet, or in other words, how important it is to traverse the star chart).

If we shift out focus to Pluto for a moment:

What do we know about Pluto? Pluto is a corpus planet which borders Neptune, where the Corpus are working to rebuild to Solar Rail Network. The Solar Rail Network sounds like it functions to allow for speedy travel to locations in the solar system. "Rebuilding" implies it was once destroyed. Now why would someone destroy a rail system? Is it that its reconstruction may allow for travel to otherwise impossible-to-access areas? Areas where the Corpus search for Orokin technology? Perhaps the rail system is predicated on Orokin Technology, which is why the Corpus are searching for Orokin salvage on Mars.

We see how and why the Grineer are trying to stop them with the current conflict. What you might not be aware of, is the similar encroachment on Ceres, a neighbor of Neptune.

So what am I getting at here? The Grineer are trying to stop the Corpus from acquiring sufficiently advanced technology on multiple fronts. Were the Corpus to have free reign over their operations, the solar rail network would allow travel from a location between Triton (the messenger, or, line of communication between the hidden R&D operations bases) and Palus, on Pluto, which we need to take a closer look at:

What do we know about Palus? It's at the end of an obscure chain of nodes. Palus, in mythology, was the area where the Pantheon was built in Campus Martius, otherwise known as the "Field of Mars." (Hmm... Mars you say? What's going on there?) A pantheon is a temple of all gods, and seeing as how the Corpus are a cult, it would seem their pantheon would be constructed at their Palus. This would be the location that the Corpus commune with their deities, which may take the form of the Honorable Board. Alad V himself has stated that he believes the Grineer will strike Pluto.

This is where things get crazy. The Corpus plan is literally spelled out by the chain of nodes while connect to Palus.

Fun fact: The font used on the left is called Kozuka Gothic. Kozuka is an anagram for Zanuka. How is that a coincidence? Actually, Kozuka is a man who designed many fonts which Adobe utilizes. Since DE uses Adobe Flash for it's UI, I think he may have designed font(s) we see in game, so the Zanuka project may be a slight homage to Kozuka. <- https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/122549-i-have-found-out-what-the-zanuka-project-is/page-3#entry1474345'>false

 

Now, what does all this mean? Take a deep breath, Tenno.

Keeping in mind all the water related names in Corpus geography, all the intentions of the Corpus as a merchant cult to create devastating technology to please their High Board, and the Grineer's adamant resistance to their efforts, the proximity of Triton to Palus, it is clear what the Corpus plan to do with those captured Tenno...

What could traverse a river of pain?

What has the deceptive humanoid nature of Nix?

What has the ferocity of a hydra?

 

What crosses the boundary between the realm of the living and the underworld itself?

 

What would be a worthy offer to the Corpus High Board in their greatest temple?

Monsterous mind-controlled zombie warframe dolphins.
