“Life of Pi” Riddle in This Week’s News
Think about the big news story from the end of the week – a man stole an airplane from Seattle-Tacoma Airport before crashing in it and dying. His name was Richard Russell.
Today, NASA launched the Parker Probe into orbit around the sun.

From that date to the Seattle incident is 202 months, 3 days:
September 11th was an eclipse ritual
713 is a significant number to this code as well.
