Summary

Description	English: * Partial view of the Mandelbrot set. Step 14 of a zoom sequence: On the first sight these islands seem to consist on infinitely many parts like Cantor sets, as it is actually the case for the corresponding Julia set J_c. Here they are connected by tiny structures so that the whole represents a simply connected set. These tiny structures meet each other at a satellite in the center which is too small to be recognized at this magnification. The value of c for the corresponding J_c is not that of the image center but has relative to the main body of the Mandelbrot set the same position as the center of this image relative to the satellite shown in zoom step 7. Coordinates of the center: Re(c) = -.743,643,887,037,151, Im(c) = .131,825,904,205,330 Horizontal diameter of the image: .000,000,000,051,299 Magnification relative to the initial image: 59,979,000,000
