Query: Variations on chaos in physics: from unpredictability to universal laws   The tremendous popular success of Chaos Theory shares some common points with
the not less fortunate Relativity: they both rely on a misunderstanding.
Indeed, ironically , the scientific meaning of these terms for mathematicians
and physicists is quite opposite to the one most people have in mind and are
attracted by. One may suspect that part of the psychological roots of this
seductive appeal relies in the fact that with these ambiguous names, together
with some superficial clich{\'e}s or slogans immediately related to them ("the
butterfly effect" or "everything is relative"), some have the more or less
secret hope to find matter that would undermine two pillars of science, namely
its ability to predict and to bring out a universal objectivity. Here I propose
to focus on Chaos Theory and illustrate on several examples how, very much like
Relativity, it strengthens the position it seems to contend with at first
sight: the failure of predictability can be overcome and leads to precise,
stable and even more universal predictions.
