This machine needs more turns to complete a cycle than the number of atoms in the universe

Inventor Daniel de Bruin has created an extremely special machine, to make a full rotation it takes longer than a person's life.

Inventor Daniel de Bruin has created an extremely special machine, to make a full rotation it takes longer than a person's life.

This machine has 100 gears connected to each other with a slow rotation speed at one end. Each pair of gears has a deceleration from 1 to 10. This means that after 10 times a gear makes a full rotation, one gear behind the limb only once. There are 100 such successive gears. Therefore, the first device must create a googol, the last gear ring to make a full rotation.

If you do not know, Googol is a very large natural number, there are a hundred zeros followed by the number 1. A number larger than the number of atoms in the universe can be observed (estimated from 10 78 to 10 82 atoms).

1 Googol: 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.

De Bruin was inspired to build this special machine after his age (more than 31 years old) at 2 hours and 52 minutes, the afternoon of March 1, 2020 - counting in seconds - just about 1 billion . To celebrate this anniversary, De Bruin had such "crazy" idea.

De Bruin shared a video recording of the operation of this device for 1 hour.
