[DE] Dank Douglas Adams wissen wir, dass die Erde ein Supercomputer ist. Doch von vorne.
Einst wurde der mächtige Computer "Deep Thought" gebaut, um die Frage „nach dem Leben, dem Universum und dem ganzen Rest“ zu beantworten. Das überraschende Ergebnis war schlicht "42". Deep Thought stellte dann fest, dass seine Erbauer wohl die Frage nicht ganz verstanden hätten und bot sich an, einen noch grösseren Computer zu entwerfen, der die richtige Frage ermitteln könnte. Unsere Erde ist eben dieser grössere Rechner.
Douglas Adams, geboren am 11.03.1952, starb am 11. Mai 2001 in einem Fitnessstudio an einem Herzinfarkt.
[EN] Thanks to Douglas Adams, we know that the Earth is a supercomputer. But from the beginning.
Once upon a time, the mighty computer "Deep Thought" was built to answer the question "about life, the universe and everything". The surprising result was simply "42". Deep Thought then realised that its builders had probably not quite understood the question and offered to design an even bigger computer that could determine the correct question. Our Earth is just that bigger computer.
Douglas Adams, born on 11 March 1952, died of a heart attack in a gym on 11 May 2001.
