h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Top of the head definition of Pi - the number that gives the relation between the radius ('separation' of centre and circumference) and circumference ('revolution' of a point about the centre) of a circle.

If that's what to 'get'?

It is the circumference divided by the diameter.

One revolution - circumference
over - divided by
our separation - the diameter.

I dunno, call me a geek

Well, I am a physics teacher.

Oh no, that is clever Not at all geeky ...

"Any suggestions for alternatives to rotating?"

Orbitting.

SoRB

Yeah, I quite like that.

I wanted more of a continuing on type of feel rather than more going round and round. Sort of relating to the fact that Pi continues on forever.

But Orbitting is definitely better than rotating.
