SpaceX is only 12 years old now. Between now and 2040, the company's lifespan will have tripled. If we have linear improvement in technology, as opposed to logarithmic, then we should have a significant base on Mars, perhaps with thousands or tens of thousands of people.

By moving them vertically, a representative mean curve could be formed, and individual events were then characterized by individual logarithmic differences from the standard curve.

American Scientist

I was lucky because logarithmic plots are a device of the devil.

Logarithmic plots are a device of the devil.

Logarithmic relates to growth that happens very fast and increases with time, like doubling.

Exponential Connection

Logarithms turn really big numbers into smaller ones, making them simpler to work with.

Managing Huge Numbers

Logarithmic isn't about music or daily life. It's a math term dealing with multiplication and powers.

Math Over Music

In charts, 'logarithmic' reveals trends that are hard to see with regular, evenly spaced lines.

Revealing Patterns

It means the chart’s axis increases by powers of a number, not by equal additions.

Non-Linear Scale

Each step up on a logarithmic scale for earthquakes is 10 times more powerful than the last.

 or a factory with chemical toxins, and it leads to habitat restoration. So, we set up a site in Mason County, Washington, and we've seen a dramatic decrease in the amount of coliforms. And I'll show you a graph here. This is a logarithmic scale, 10 to the eighth power.

 Let's add European countries in blue, and you can see there's quite a variety. I should emphasize, both of these axes are logarithmic; as you go from one gray bar to the next gray bar, you're going up a factor of 10. Next, let's add Asia in red,
