@jon_ox What a crime to bring up the “last loop” bit, then cut the video short before it had a chance. 😆

@jon_ox I have watched this video 5 times: and each time the pendulum repeats the same pattern. A tet⁴ computer would solve the three-body problem.

@jon_ox Qs: Why is Time Period of a pendulum constant? What does motion of pendulum establish about motion on planet Earth?
