And that I think is like completely amazing. And then that should allow people on Earth to think about, well, probably we should try and get causal chains off Earth onto Mars, onto the moon, wherever. Yeah. Whether it's human life or Martian life that we create, it doesn't matter. But I think this commentorial space tells us something very important about the universe.

I realized in assembly theory that the universe is too big to contain itself. And I think this is, and I'm coming back and I want to, I want to kind of change your mind about time. Cause I'm, I'm guessing that your time is just a coordinate.

Or erase it a bit. And the argument that I think is really most interesting is people say the initial conditions specify the future of the universe. Okay, fine. Let's say that's the case for a moment. Now let's go back to Newtonian mechanics. Now, the uncertainty principle in Newtonian mechanics is this.

If I give you the coordinates of an object moving in space and the coordinates of another object and they collide in space, and you know those initial conditions, you should know exactly what's going to happen. However... you cannot specify these coordinates to infinite precision. Now everyone said, you know, oh, this is kind of like, you know, the chaos theory argument.
