The larger gear array in the world This is perhaps the greatest speed splitter gear you've ever seen. It takes more energy than is observed in the universe, that the last gear to make a full rotation. A creation by artist Daniel De Bruin, inspired by the "Machine with Concrete" of Arthur Ganson. The Daniel De Bruin constructed this camera to demonstrate the vast size of the number googol (googol). In Math, a googol is a natural integer which corresponds to 10 ^ 100 (i.e., one followed by one hundred zeros). A number greater than the amount of people present in the known universe. This mechanism has a bearing assembly, with each gave rotational reduction ratio 1/10. Since there are 100 gears in the mechanism, the first should be rotated 10 ^ 100 times so that it can make a complete rotation. This would require more energy than is available in the observed universe theory (10 ^ 70 joules) - assuming that a full rotation of the first wheel requires 1 Joule.
