Remember the access panel at the end of the episode? Well, after the code disappears, this leaf spins around on the panel. In the center of the leaf is the symbol for the Greek letter ‘Delta’…
Delta on the leaf
Delta
Delta: (uppercase ?) is the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet. Generally used to denote ‘change‘ and ‘uncertainty‘. ‘Delta’ is derived form the Phoenician letter ‘Daleth‘ which translates in English to ‘door‘.
O.K., so the last one is obvious…but what the fringe do the rest of them mean?
Closing credits
At first, I thought it was places to look for the Massive Dynamic logo throughout the episode…plane and satellites covered…but what about the other three?

When Olivia is looking through the images of the victims aboard the plane(pilot episode)…you can clearly see the seatbelt. This might me a stretch, but it looks like a symbol to me…
Theta?
Theta
Theta: The eighth letter of the Greek alphabet. ‘Theta’ is derived from the Phoenician letter ‘Teth’, meaning ‘wheel‘. The symbol is actually ‘Teth’. In classical Athens this symbol was used to signify death or a warning of death, much like we use the skull and bones today.
