In 1961, meteorologist Edward Lorenz discovered something shocking about weather prediction...
He ran a weather simulation twice with a tiny difference in initial conditions - just 0.001 degrees. What happened next changed science forever.
The Challenge: Predict the Outcome
Two identical weather simulations start with temperatures that differ by only 0.001 degrees. After running for a while, what happens to their predictions?
What happens to two simulations that start 0.001 apart?
Try it! Click "Run Both Simulations" to watch two nearly-identical simulations evolve, then predict what happens!
