Chaos Theory: 10 Mind-Blowing Facts That Will Change How You See the World! Fun Facts: Chaos theory shows how small changes can lead to huge, unpredictable effects—like a butterfly causing a tornado! It was popularized by meteorologist Edward Lorenz, who discovered chaotic systems while studying weather patterns. The famous "butterfly effect" comes from chaos theory. Chaotic systems are everywhere—from weather to stock markets to heartbeats. Even though chaotic systems seem random, they often have an underlying order. Fractals, complex geometric shapes found in nature, are related to chaos theory. Chaos theory challenges the idea that the universe is fully predictable. It’s used in real-life applications like predicting traffic patterns and population dynamics. Chaos theory appears in pop culture, like in Jurassic Park (thanks to Dr. Ian Malcolm!).
