In Superman (2005) #214, titled “For Tomorrow, Part Eleven”, Superman performs an intelligence feat. In For Tomorrow, 1,300,000 humans were transported to Metropia a pocket dimension in the Phantom Zone with Superman’s Vanishing Device. During the final fight against Zod, Superman tells of the creation of the Vanishing Device.

How much intelligence does it take for Superman to create the Vanishing Device?

In Superman (2005) #215, titled “For Tomorrow, Part Twelve”, Superman performs an intelligence feat. During the final fight against Zod, Superman tells of the creation of the Vanishing Device. DC Comics.

IN THE ISSUE, SUPERMAN CREATED THE VANISHING DEVICE AND THE SUPER ROBOTS IN A FLASHBACK. ALSO, THE VANISHING DEVICE OPENED 1,300,000 WORMHOLES TO METROPIA IN THE PHANTOM ZONE.

RELEVANTLY, THE CRAY T3E SUPERCOMPUTER USED 5 PERCENT OF NASA GODDARD FLIGHT CENTER’S 32 GIGABYTES OF DATA IN ORDER TO PRODUCE A SOLAR SIMULATION.

IMPORTANTLY, SUPERMAN PROCESSED THE EQUIVALENT OF 2.08*1023 BYTES PER SECOND IN ORDER TO CREATE THE VANISHING DEVICE. ENOUGH 8.32*1013 TIMES THE PROCESSING SPEED OF 5G INTERNET. LIKELY, THE FEAT IS UNQUANTIFIABLE SINCE THE PHANTOM ZONE IS OUTSIDE SPACE AND TIME.

Superman created the Vanishing Device. We will calculate the energy of 1,300,000 wormholes in order to estimate Superman’s intelligence.

NUMBER CRUNCHING

First, let’s calculate the energy necessary to create 1,300,000 wormholes in order to get an idea.

According to BBC Future, it would take 100 million years of the sun burning in order to create a wormhole. When the Vanishing Device was triggered, it opened 1,300,000 wormholes on Earth. Let’s calculate the energy produced.

Energy Produced By 1,300,000 Wormholes = (1,300,000*108 years)(3.846*1026 J/s * 100*106 * 1 month * 1 day * 1 hr)/(1 year * 12 months * 30 days * 24 hrs * 3600 s)(4π*0.302 m)/(4π*0.032 m) = 1.607446*1043 J/s.

According to Wired, the Cray T3E supercomputer used 5% of NASA Goddard Space Flight Center’s 32 Gigabytes of data in order to create a simulation of the sun. Let’s calculate the solar simulation date for 1,300,000 wormholes.

Solar Simulation Data = (32*109 B)(0.05)/(1 year * 12 months * 30 days * 24 hrs * 3600 s) = 1.6*109 B = 51.4403292181 B/s.

Solar Simulation Data For 1,300,000 Wormholes = (51.4403292181 B/s * 1,300,000 Suns * 108 years * 12 months * 30 days * 24 hrs * 3600 s)/(1 Sun * 1 year * 1 month * 1 day * 1 hr) = 2.08*1023 B.

Superman’s Intelligence = 2.08*1023 B/s.

INTELLIGENCE

Superman processed at least 2.08*1023 B/s of data in order to create the Vanishing Device. In order to create 1,300,000 wormholes, Superman had to generate a Mathematical Computation-Level of Intelligence.

Calculations for Superman, ‘Superman’ Vol 2 #214

Energy Produced By 1,300,000 Wormholes = (1,300,000*10^8 years)(3.846*10^26 J/s * 100*10^6 * 1 month * 1 day * 1 hr)/(1 year * 12 months * 30 days * 24 hrs * 3600 s)(4π*0.30^2 m)/(4π*0.03^2 m) = 1.607446*10^43 J/s.
Solar Simulation Data = (32*10^9 B)(0.05)/(1 year * 12 months * 30 days * 24 hrs * 3600 s) = 1.6*10^9 B = 51.4403292181 B/s.
Solar Simulation Data For 1,300,000 Wormholes = (51.4403292181 B/s * 1,300,000 Suns * 10^8 years * 12 months * 30 days * 24 hrs * 3600 s)/(1 Sun * 1 year * 1 month * 1 day * 1 hr) = 2.08*10^23 B.
Superman’s Intelligence = 2.08*10^23 B/s.
Ratio to 5G Internet = (2.08*10^23 B/s)/(2.5*10^9 B/s) = 8.32*10^13.
