I’ve recently learned Americans don’t do log tables in high school.
Log is the opposite of exponent, so log2 is the opposite of squared, log 3 the opposite of cubed. log4 opposite of x^4 etc
instead of making things relatively bigger, you’re going the other way and making things smaller, in the diagram this means that if the sun’s size is 1 unit, under log2 it would have to be twice as big as the sun to be represented as the same size as the sun, the closer you get to the edge the bigger it has to be to be represented as the same size as the sun
I don’t understand what it shows. Instead of forcing me to make up some crazy shit, could someone explain it to me?
I think its just a circular logarithmic representation of the universe starting at Sol
