Chaos in the cosmos: The stunning complexity of the universe

Ebook Download | Chaos in the cosmos: The stunning complexity of the universe | I enjoyed reading this book. The three-body problem demonstrates the motion of three bodies given their initial position, masses, and velocities. The three-body problem demonstrates that planets are chaotic. Discovery of chaos required Supercomputers using cheap central processors simulated millions of years motions to reveal chaotic patterns demonstrating the 3 body problem is chaotic. Chaos has been hidden because computers power recently has achieved enough power to reveal the patterns hidden in mountains of data. Will a quantum computer simulation prove chaos patterns quicker?
The relatively stable state of the solar system indicates the planets will not fly out of their orbits. What types of system are stable enough to support life? However, it is probable that mars will eventually lose its orbit and depart the solar system. Small changes in the initial conditions could eventually disrupt the orbital pattern of Mars. How would this be possible? small gravitation distrubances from neighboring planets combined with a slight wobbly rotations could cause significant fluctuations in orbits and orientations of the planet, says, Dr. Wisdom.
The solar system is chaotic. The determinism that the solar system will remain stable indefinitely is contradicted by the conclusions of chaos. Chaos suggests the system will not remain stable indefinitely even though the mechanism seems to be stable. Chaos introduces an element of randomness into complex systems.
