Rössler attractor

A rössler attractor is like a shape made from a special type of lines. It looks kind of like a squashed jellyfish. It was invented by a man named Otto Rössler and it is used by mathematicians and scientists to help them understand how different things change over time. It is like a model of how things move and interact with each other. The lines it is made from can tell us what patterns will happen over time.
