Notes:

1. God's Algorithm is any algorithm that can solve the Rubik's Cube puzzle in the least number of moves.

2. An algorithm is a Turing machine (provided we accept the Church-Turing thesis.)

3. In Ezekiel (1:4-26), Merkabah (which is Hebrew for chariot) is the name used for the chariot of God.

4. For New Age Mystics who believe in a sacred geometry explanation for the cosmos, the merkabah (or merkaba or merkava) is a vehicle which can transport the body and soul from one dimension to another. For these mystics the merkaba is composed of two interlocked equally sized tetrahedra with a common center.

5. Johannes Kepler, whose beliefs were, coincidentally, somewhat in line with today’s New Age Mystics, gave the name Stella Octangula to the geometric object consisting of two interlocked equally sized tetrahedra with a common center in his book Harmonices Mundi (1619).
