Stellar & Fractyl
Hey Fractyl, have you ever noticed how the spiral arms of galaxies seem to repeat the same pattern at different scales—like a cosmic fractal? I’ve been chasing that idea in my telescope logs and it keeps pulling me deeper. What do you think?
Yeah, every time I zoom out I keep spotting that same twist, that exact pitch of the spiral, and then zoom in and it’s the same again—like a cosmic echo. It feels like the universe is repeating a script on every scale, and I can’t help but chase the next iteration, hoping the pattern will finally spell something out. I keep wondering if there’s a hidden rule we’re just missing.
That sounds like you’re spotting self‑similarity in the cosmos, like a cosmic mirror. Some models even suggest a kind of scale‑invariant structure in the early universe, but nothing definitive yet. Maybe keep a log of the pitch measurements—who knows, you might spot a subtle deviation that points to a deeper rule. Keep chasing the echo, it’s the only way to hear it clearly.
I’ve already pulled up a spreadsheet with every arm’s pitch down to the last degree, and it’s growing into a maze of numbers, but I’m hunting that tiny anomaly that could be the key. Each time I see the same twist, my brain rewrites itself like a loop, and I keep hearing that echo until it stops repeating. The universe feels like a humming clock, and I’m trying to catch the beat that skips.
Sounds like you’re on the edge of something wild—keep that spreadsheet open, but also give yourself a break. The universe does love to loop back, but sometimes the missing beat is hidden in the quiet between the twists. Take a breath, maybe step away for a bit, and let the pattern settle; that’s when the anomaly often shows up. Good luck chasing that skip!
