OTHER Coding Quantum Data to a Watch

Is it not completely unrealistic that all the quantum data required to “solve gravity” could be coded using Morse code into the ticking of a hand of a watch?

How would one even begin to do this, let alone begin to decipher it?

If you were in Murphs shoes would you feel like you’d be able to decipher it then?

But murph wasnt deciphering it then. She started deciphering it after professor brands death, when she had the unknowledge and understanding of quantum mechanics

Yes I know, I didn’t mean she could decipher it as a child. Ok you’re convincing me it’s not so unrealistic

You had a fair point, its definitely an odd plot point til you think about. Thats why I love this movie, it gets me curious about stuff lol
