## Description
>We've stumbled across what looks like a crashed Alien Spaceship. We're sending you a screenshot of the Remote Crashed Craft Computer Console to see if you can decipher anything from it.

## Solution
The description mentions `Remote Crashed Craft Computer Console`, which corresponds to a rc4 encryption. This encryption requires a key
to use, so we turn back to the png file. The code at the top of the image looks similar to the [Masonic Cipher](https://sites.google.com/site/lostsymbolproject/masonic-cipher).

Decrypting the code, we get `the key to decode is masonic`. Using `masonic` as our key to decrypt the binary in the image, we receive our flag.
