'The sun is 0.01 percent less bright than it should be'; 'a full percent over the next nine years... In twenty years... five percent' (ch. 2); doubling 'just over eight days' (ch. 5); a neutrino at 'one twenty-billionth the mass of a proton' (ch. 13); 25.984 µm; 96.415 °C; 37 million km off the pole (ch. 1)

(3/2)kT at 96.415 °C = 47.77 meV; one 25.984 µm photon = 47.72 meV; the book's neutrino = 46.91 meV: three numbers from different chapters lock to 0.11-1.7%

1% of the Sun = 3.8×10²⁴ W = 42,600 t/s of banked mass; 7.7×10²⁶ covering cells; a 0.92 c photon boost keeps 20.4%; a breeding cycle emits 95.8% as one wavelength

KIC 8462852: ~0.34%/yr fade, dips to 22%, chromatic (INST-21); KATRIN < 450 meV, Planck Σ < 120 meV; the real Sahara ~6 kWh/m²/day; world energy ~20 TW

The line's luminosity (a stated migration cycle), the 1 GWt carrier reactor, the visual width of the ribbon in the 3D view

Whether a novel that locks three numbers into one but keeps three clocks that disagree deserves Reading A (the homework shows) or Reading B (the price list has footnotes)
