I dare say the most efficient model
that could be used to describe all celestial
observations would be an information based system
like the systems used to compress data files.

ZIP, RAR, JPG, GIF, etc.

The key is to find out what compression scheme
can be used to reduce celestial observations to the smallest size,

then use another compression scheme
to get that file a little smaller,

and keep doing this
until you get down to one bit.

In the beginning there were ZERO bits,
and the world was void,
and G-d said "Let there be a bit."
and then there was ONE bit!

THE BIG BANG!!!!!

This would save a lot of the tax-payer's money,
and they could use some of their hard earned money
to get a little bit.

Everybody needs a little bit.

Especially Eric Gisse. ;-))
