For a modeler, it's important
00:00:03.998 --> 00:00:05.962
because anybody can make a model
00:00:06.999 --> 00:00:07.703
that fits one data point,
00:00:07.746 --> 00:00:09.001
one Voyager spacecraft,
00:00:09.139 --> 00:00:11.998
but when you have two data points
00:00:11.054 --> 00:00:12.049
that your model has to fit,
00:00:12.533 --> 00:00:13.097
then it becomes much more accurate.
