Initially, the two trajectories seem coincident, as indicated by the small difference between the ''z'' coordinate of the blue and yellow trajectories, but for ''t'' > 23 the difference is as large as the value of the trajectory. The final position of the cones indicates that the two trajectories are no longer coincident at ''t'' = 30. |- | style="text-align:center;" colspan="3" | An animation of the [[Lorenz attractor]] shows the continuous evolution. |}
