This article states that there are between 10^78 to 10^82 atoms in the entire universe. Not just our Milky Way galaxy, but the entire universe, which has an uncountable number of galaxies.

[google “how many atoms in the universe?”]

So a 3 dimensional dataset with a volume of 10^10,000,000,000? Color me skeptical.



Serious about crackers.

Hi Artie,

I just sent you an email regarding my son John, who has a PhD in math. He may be able to help you; he will at least understand your needs. He also teams with a mathematician who was in grad school in math at Harvard with him.
Some of you have taken GGI or OpSpec classes with John; he occasionally posts here as “dilettante”.

Thank you all for your responses. I am aware of the atoms in the known universe issue! Cool

In my intellectual law practice, I run into some entrepreneurs with interesting needs.

A bit of folly...as it were...

I have the same issues in my practice from time to time. Sounds like you have a good lead here, but for future reference I’ve had good luck with local universities. I’m sure UCF has plenty of qualified folks. Just make sure they know they’re working on reducing the invention to practice and not the invention itself.

Thanks Dave. Yes, that is an issue. We are in contact with a quantum physicist at UCF who said "Not my math."

I should note that most discussions of the issue would require signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement, and could turn into a longer term consulting arrangement.

If anyone is such a person, or knows such a person, please respond to my email in profile.

Thank you all for your help with this.


I know the person for you. I used to work with him at the same company.

He's a statistician when I first worked with him. He bills himself as a data & AI advisor on his linkedin profile. He can do your work and he's open to contract work.

Ryan Withop

He is a very sharp statistics guy but still very personable. I met him while working at Novo Nordisk in Hayward, CA. He'll remember that.

We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
