HiPPAblocks

Humans have tracked bodies across the sky for millennia. Between 162 and 127 BC, Hipparchus built trigonometric tables of observational data — and founded the field itself.

Thirty-two pictures pay that debt. Four tables of two thousand points, layered until the antique dataset looks like weather. Information is power.

The thirty-two cuts

Pictures where we have them. Palette tiles for the rest — same rows as the original storefront table.
