		While flying, Kele could scan surface geometry and analyze topographical influences on air currents. Combined with data collated, this enabled him to calculate variances in trajectories for objects moving at any speed from very slow to hyper-sonic. With his extraordinary mega-processing power, he could simultaneously measure the flight paths of a million fruit flies within 12 miles and generate navigation charts to plot and project their activity for hours. That's how the developers described his computational capacity in their speculation abstract. His potential, however, was still virtually unproven, untested and mostly theoretical.
