A paper by Don Page claimed to use the longest finite time ever calculated by a physicist - it's the time it will take the Universe to reset itself!?!
Video featuring Tony Padilla from the University of Nottingham.

No...I meant what happens at that time in the video! They were talking about the Poincaré Recurrence time and they repeated the segment of the video. I honestly thought it was pretty funny.

But a recurrence also requires the system to keep evolving - can't we imagine that the system just stops at one point & just stays like it is?
I mean, if you stop picking cards, no chance for a recurrence.

No one can observe the repetition because they wouldn't survive that length of time? Doctor, get the TARDIS!
