Our observation of the digital cosmos is causing the cosmos to become more digital through exponetial innovation. The more

we observe and quantify our reality, the more it becomes digital. We observe the mathematical and digital nature of the

cosmos and we send out machines to observe it in greater detail. As our digital awareness expands, our digital space-

time-awreness begins to shrink and a new rover lands on or takes photos of another planet, moon or asteriod. @GRAYSCOTT
