Boarded Up Buckydome Outside Las Vegas

From Buckminster Fuller’s lecture notes:

Let’s assume there are hundreds of rnillions of planets.

Then what?

Therefore we should what?

Let’s make a simple comparison or analogy.

The maple tree has many seeds and each has a small chance of survival. Yet there are lots of maple trees around.

The percentage of each chemical element in the universe diminishes with higher atomic numbers.

Hydrogen, number one, is the most abundant. . . Helium is second most abundant and so on.

Every local system loses energy.

That’s called entropy.

But nothing is really lost, we know better now,

energy in one system only goes to another system,

really we just have transformations.
transformations
transformations
transformations
transformations
transformations!
