Going through this page surprised me. A bunch of things I thought were “basic facts” like humans having only five senses, Einstein struggling with math, or seasons changing because we’re closer to the Sun turn out to be wrong. There are quite a few tech-related misconceptions in there too. Made me realize how many things we repeat without ever checking where they came from.

Why not to answer "I don't know" instead of hallucinating? I don't know Einstein's progress in math, I don't know how many senses are there.

> There is no scientific evidence that the motion of stars, planets, and other celestial bodies influences the fates of humans

As a Libra fire dragon I have my doubts as to your scientific authenticity.
