To solve a simple heist
$begingroup$
It happened by chance really. I was walking out from the bank when a man ran into me while rushing out. During our collision a piece of paper fell from his pocket.
I quickly picked it up and tried to call out to him, but he had vanished. I then looked at the note and was instantly intrigued.
It said:
Be where?
I looked further down the note and saw something strange. It had a piece of music taped to it:
Below in a scribble it said:
I'm not sure what all this meant. So I continued to look at the note.
I turned the paper over and my heart sank. It was a blueprint of the very building I was in!
Below the blueprint was an object and strange text circled.
Were these instructions on when to rob this bank?!
I had to solve the puzzle so I could go to the police. But how to solve it?
So answer me this:
What time was the heist?
What were they going to steal?
Hint 0:
The : in the music staff normally means repeat, it does not.

They were stealing
a diamond at 23:25.
The notes read
AABBAABA AABBAABB : AABBAABA AABBABAB
Alpha Centauri A & B are a binary star system, hinting that we need to use binary to translate this.
So, convert to binary (A=0, B=1):
00110010 00110011 : 00110010 00110101
Which in ASCII reads 23:25
Modified Newtonian Dynamics is
abbreviated MOND, and prefixed with the "die" we get diamond.
