Unisex Long Sleeve Tee - Our Red Shifted Universe, Its Calculus Baby!

DESIGN BACKSTORY

Our science and mathematics can sort-of account for how our bonkers universe operates from the tiny 10^-10 meter scale out to 10^35 meters, with this design have a red tinge added to signify the red shift of star light as space itself expands. Will the machinery of the enhanced LHC, neutrino detectors, successors to the JWST or mathematicians' magnificent minds continue to extend this coverage?

In a beautifully passionate Numberphile podcast Professor Steve Strogatz notes Newton’s use of the dot notation in calculus, echoed in the design by the countless dots of stars. Find out more and listen to Professor Daniel Whiteson discuss just how well mathematics deals with our universe with Professor Strogatz here. Listen to him enthusiastically declare on the topic: “It’s calculus baby!” – providing a bridge to solve insoluble problems by turning them into an infinite number of problems that can be solved by summing infinitesimals. Then it is just integration - easy right? (If not get infinite powers to understand here)!
