The mathematical apocalypse has arrived! This meme perfectly captures what happens when engineers cut corners on π calculations. Sure, 3.14 might work for your middle school science fair project, but try that in rocket science and suddenly you've got a fireball visible from space. NASA engineers are screaming internally at this image. Fun fact: in critical aerospace calculations, π is often calculated to hundreds of decimal places to avoid exactly this kind of explosive rounding error. Math: the only subject where being off by 0.0000001 can create a mushroom cloud!
