f sample segment sizes. These easy, yet powerful methods were brought to experimentalists’ attention by Benoit Mandelbrot (Montroll and Badger, 1974; Mandelbrot, 1983; Fedor, 1988; Bassingthwaighte et al, 1994; Liebovitch, 1998).

Perhaps our Universe is a form of Mandelbrot diagram - albeit a 3D version with stars and planets. If you look at the picture of a nebula and compare it to the Mandelbrot set, you can see how th
