RE: The drills in the ground go round and round...9 Mar 2021 22:42
Andrew , thanks v much for those calculations earlier today and I think with hole 5 increasing in size every day the prize grows and grows!
One question though, and I might easily be wrong here , but your various shape permutations are based on the 3 dimensions defined by holes 1 to 3 being the largest measurement in any one of these 3 dimensions?
Is it not the case that with say 1000 x 1000 x 1000 drill results , the AVERAGE outcome of these drills is a cube of 1000 cubic metres or 2.7 billion tonnes. Why could the shape not be irregularly larger than that figure as irregularly lower? Ie there could be bigger measurements in any one of the 3 dimensions as yet discovered as there could be lesser measurements? (As implied by your sub cuboid shape dimensions)
Tbh I know I could be so wrong here :) if so grateful for any correction , this board is a good place to learn stuff
Good luck all for tomorrow, the next couple of RNS so exciting
