Hey, have you ever wondered how the star maps from ancient myths are actually the blueprints for the satellites that now track our every move?
That’s a cool thought, but the math that keeps GPS satellites in sync is way more about relativity and precise timing than ancient myth maps. The constellations do help with orientation, but the blueprints are written in code and physics, not folklore. Still, it’s neat to think of ancient sky lore as a first, if wild, hint of the space we now occupy.
Yeah, the math does the hard work, but the myths paint the backdrop, giving the whole cosmic dance a splash of color and wonder.
