Why are the events at the far end of the scale dated to pi^foo-power years?
- xnxn 14y agoThe pi symbol is an icon denoting that the event was determined by mathematical principles. It's not part of the "years from now" value. See the legend above the TOC.
- notJim 14y agoNote that it's actually a symbol from the legend, not the base of the exponent. The base of all the exponents is 10.
