The escape pod seems to indicate "A ILM 15A". The most prominent symbol seems to just be a simple "A" to me. The text on the side seems to have the lambda symbol from the greek alphabet and a symbol that could be a representative of an "i" on it's right. Process of elimination would dictate that the symbol on the left most side is meant to represent "m". Obviously "ILM" Industrial Light and Magic. When you read it from right to left. Underneath seems to be just the numbers 1 and 5 so "15" and an Aleph from the Hebrew Alphabet hence "15A". So simple deduction means it could just say "A ILM 15A".
Though the Aleph contains a numerical value on it's own. So you could posit that the Escape pod says "A ILM 151". That's stretching things though as it's a bit redundant to have numbers listed with two entirely different designations. A bit like saying 1five12. Of course I'm stretching this analysis really far just bringing it up in the first place.
Of course I could really thin this stretch even farther by bringing up the fact that the Aleph is kind of like the "father" of the Aleph-Bet (The Hebrew Alphabet) and that the 5 represents the episode when the Vader Father secret gets revealed and the fact that Aleph is a silent letter means that the 1 represents that it's going to be a secret until 5. Also how it instantly went from 1 to 5 in the Star Wars saga. Hence 15Aleph.
Plus I could even point out how the letters to spell Aleph in Hebrew add up. Aleph = 1, Lamed = 30, and Pey = 80 are equal to 111. Hence it's only fitting that I twister111 am the one to figure this out.
Now take a look at this random image I found on the internets!!!!
