    The limit that the 3 body problem presents is that there is no exact solution, and inexact solutions will eventually desynchronize so much as to become worthless for predictions. But the key word is ‘eventually’ - if your initial measurements are good, there could be years (and in the case of the planets of the solar system, millions of years) worth of useful predictions.

    It’s not exactly that they ran out of money, but the admin who ‘held the keys’ went offline long enough for the hosting to end.

    One of the other admins started a new instance. Also the old instance was brought back as read-only.
