Spoilers for the base game and some basic principals of the DLC.
There's a sneaky way of beating the Owls in the Starlit Cove section of the Echoes of the Eye DLC for Outer Wilds, so I thought I'd showcase it. This is slightly different from the way of just waiting at the end of a loop.
Disabling the Ash Twin Project will give you roughly 2 minutes 30 seconds of additional time down in the archive room to gather information, compared to the 30 seconds you'd have without it disabled. That's just about enough to get all the information you need without being spooked.
