Interesting nonetheless. Could be another clue to solving this mystery.A space is just another character to a computer, and it reads a little differently. A space has it's own binary number(00100000) like any other character. And a computer doesn't need spaces to distinguish between characters.
For example: A computer will read it as "A" as soon as it reads the first 8 binary characters. It knows the next 8 characters is another letter, and so on.
01000001 = A
A computer sees a distinction that you do not. To you, AAA looks like this:
010000010100000101000001
But to a computer, it looks like this:
010000010100000101000001
In order for a typical human to distinguish between letters, they have to use spaces and see it like this:
01000001 01000001 01000001
...which is how the message in question is written out. Thus it appears that a human converted it rather than using a computerized converter. Because a computer would have written/interpreted the spacing differently.
It looks like someone took a table of the English alphabet with corresponding binary,...
...and typed it out as a human would interpret the spacing.
It could mean anything. I am merely noting an observation and forming a hypothesis.
