The key is finding the initial asymmetry. Maybe something with polarized light. Who knows.

I have pondered if heterogenous reactions could be a potential lead for the question. Soai's work demonstrates how homochirality can...

Arrival got it right, although they still did the floaty rock thing.

Floaty rock spaceship design. The aliens are just humans with a twist.

I have questions I’d like to ask. But it’a gonna take me some time. As I said I’m a selfthougt hack, and I’d like real input from people...

Chemist.

Spectroscopy equipment is notoriously expensive and there's probably a reason beyond profit. At best you would be able to say "this is...

Since math is a neverending problem, the question is whether a similar theorem exists / can be proven for a non-cyclic quadrilateral.

No, but certainly a need for an intelligent "creator" in this instance. :wink:

I'm not aware of the scope of Soai's work, i.e. how many instances of the Soai reaction have been discovered, but the molecules studied...

Oh would you look at that. This is a solved problem. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_quadrilateral#Parameshvara's_circumradius_formula

Harvard, one of the most prestigious universities in the world entire world, discovers the ancient concept of mysticism. This seems...

Well, for starters, ##|n - 0| = n##, whereas ##|n - \infty|## is not a conceptually valid operation.

I'm trying but it's not an easy problem.

It is not surprising to me! Enantioselectivity is one of the big bulls of synthetic chemistry.
