The Biggest Problem in Astronomy Is the Incompressibility Equation
There are assumptions that will be better than others. It's all a question about how much you really want to get out of it. The biggest example is incompressible versus compressible equations, right? Like some people just assume incompressibility and just take it as is because it's far easier to compute. But again, just because I'm talking about how many people use it doesn't mean again, that's where all this research comes in that it's perfectFar from it, right? There are a lot of methods that are currently still being studied due to the fact that turbulence is not understood.
