A New Kind of Science

A bunch of us have been working on understanding the physics of the Bussard Fusion Reactor. The subject of getting a copy of Mathematica has come up several times. What is detering us is the cost.

Since I have several students in school and know several teachers from grade school to college level I may have a way around that.

In any case when I saw this lecture by Mathematica inventor Stephen Wolfram I couldn't resist.

He explains why the universe we see is so complicated.

The essense of it is: simple rules can lead to complicated results. It is inherent in the universe.

The video is about an hour and a half.

Here is the book the lecture is based on: A New Kind of Science
