> How mindblowing to imagine. We should make a simulation of the entire earth history where you could follow the atoms and molecules from the birth in stars to the forming of the earth and then through forming of continents, erosion, sedimentation, subduction, eruption as lava, etc. etc. Of course we only know a partial history of a fraction of material in these longterm cycles but still, it would be a nice way for our brains to get a moving simulation of all that science learned about the Earth System History. It would beat Google Earth or a planetarium or universe simulator. You could watch the neighbourhood you live in and follow it back in time for as far as we know.
Maybe this is the simulation.
- morphle 5y agoYou mean to say that this text that forms a simulation in the reader's brain is that simulation?
- throwawaylinux 5y agoI meant our universe is the simulation, but I like that one too.
