Could a butterfly's wing beat in Africa really trigger Hurricane Andrew? On August 12th, 1992, an African monarch butterfly startles a gazelle in Senegal, causing a stampede that sends dust into the atmosphere. Twelve days later, Hurricane Andrew destroys 97% of Homestead Air Force Base. This is the incredible true story of the butterfly effect in action—how Edward Lorenz's discovery of chaos theory explains why the smallest actions can have devastating consequences thousands of miles away. From the Senegalese savanna to the ruins of a Florida military base, discover how everything in our universe is connected in ways we never imagined.
