Every time sugar dissolves in tea, the information about the cube is irreversibly erased. This is not just a metaphor — a new proof shows that the growth of disorder in nature is precisely caused by the loss of information. Future nanotechnology will be able to control this process.

🎬 In Isaac Asimov's story 'The Last Question,' a supercomputer seeks a way to reverse the growth of entropy in the universe.
