The newest crop of crop circles seem to be sending a message. This one is apparently from a math major. I have to admit this one took some work. It is very intricate and beautiful. The photo can be found on this page. Many have said that if extraterrestrials are trying to contact us, they would use math because it is a universal language. The circle, found near Barbury Castle, Wiltshire, England, in a barley field is approximately 150 feet in diameter. This would have taken a lot of work to get this done in one night. The complex pattern represents the first ten digits of Pi: 3.141592654. Astrophysicist Mike Reed has said: “I noticed a photo of the Barbury Castle pattern. It shows a coded image representing the first ten digits of Pi - the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter. The tenth digit has even been correctly rounded up. The little dot near the centre is the decimal point. The code is based on ten angular segments, with the radial jumps being the indicator of each segment,” OK, slow down. What does all that mean? I’ve had ex-wives that were less confusing. You turn a scientist loose and you can’t get them to make sense. Or maybe it’s too much sense for me to wrap my non-physics educated mind around. The point here, which has suddenly been lost in translation, is that someone has turned this mass of circles into a mathematical equation. The mathematical equation is Pi, which is the formula for finding the circumference of a circle which is being given to us by a series of circles even though we already know all this. What use is that? My head hurts. I need aspirin. This is worse than when my math teacher used to give me story problems. I hated those. They made my head hurt too. I’m going to go lie down now.
