for the motions of the bodies. Even in a three body system the motions of the bodies become chaotic and unpredictable at a detailed level. In 1890 Poincare demonstrated that it is actually impossible to solve the equations for a three body system in a simple field system, so even a system as simple as t

and accurate enough measurement today, the future course of the universe could be predicted. For mathematicians, that dictum was dashed in 1899 by Poincare's proof of the existence of chaos. PoincarE showed that not only was it impossible to derive a formula which could predict 165 EFTA00625293 the
