### Clarke's three laws
|

|

[Clarke's three laws on Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarke's_three_laws)
|

|
||||
Arthur C. Clarke, an british science fiction writer, formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws. The third law is the best known and most widely cited.
|
||||
|
||||
These so-called laws are:
|
||||
- When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, they are almost certainly right. When they state that something is impossible, they are very probably wrong.
|
||||
- The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
|
||||
- Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
