If it is small, dark, and fast, the camera and we don't see it, except maybe a white spot on a tail. Its body jumps straight, but the tail might zig-zag.

I don't think it is an insect. Maybe a small rodent?

Plagiarism, kind of
Sigh... My cheating cousin - see above - just sent me email with the following closing sentence:
-
Did God intend for people to have children after the departure from Eden?

perception of hinduism in a biased world
"Yug" is a measure of time, 4,320,000 years (12,000 divine years). "Sahastra" is a number, 1000. "Jojan" is a measure of distance, from 4 to 10 miles.

What is the least number of smaller circles that can be fitted inside a mother circle under certain conditions?
Can you solve it for line segments instead of circles? I.e., What is the least number of smaller segments that can be fitted inside a mother segment under the following conditions: 1. The smaller segments cannot intersect or be contained inside any other segment besides the mother segment. 2. The lengths of the smaller segments must be N (N<1) times any existing segment inside the mother segment. 3. The system must contain the maximum number of segments of the same length as possible.

You are talking about a one-way trip, right? One just flies away and gone.- The closer to the speed of light, the more length contraction in the direction of motion (SRT).
