just think -
a glowing soccer ball is moving.
across the field is a pea rotating and revolving.
around the pea is pinhead rotating and revolving.
a single cell on the pea is asked to figure out the path of the shadow of the pinhead as it comes in between the soccer ball and the pea.
how amazingly impossible is that?
and it has been done! precisely.
vedic astronomers did. chinese did. aryabhaTTa did it to precision unknown before!
and now we have interactive maps and movies of the event before it has happened!
i think i should just get back to SMS, iPod, iPohone, iWhere, iCan, iAm and the Wii (which i don't have) rather than trying to fathom the tremendous scientific progress we have made.
