This is actually a moon mining ROI breakdown from Eve Online. Long story short, you lose one drone and you've wasted an hour.
But seriously, great share, thanks!
Its actually the Plimpton 322 is a Babylonian clay tablet, believed to have been written around 1800 BC, that contains a mathematical table written in cuneiform script. Each row of the table relates to a Pythagorean triple, that is, a triple of integers that satisfies the Pythagorean theorem, the rule that equates the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle to the square of the hypotenuse. The era in which Plimpton 322 was written was roughly 13 to 15 centuries prior to the era in which the major Greek discoveries in geometry were made.

Wow, a million years ago.
Rorq moon mining in TYOOL 2025? Has it become viable again? I thought excavators are now like 130mil, but I haven't played in a few years
