After solving the gravity equation, Murph shouts "Eureka!" This is a reference to a phrase used by the ancient Greek inventor Archimedes meaning, "I found it!" He said it after realizing that the volume of water displaced in a tub had to be equal to the volume of the submerged body part. By doing so, he was able to precisely measure the volume of irregular objects. It is also the state motto of California, in reference to gold being found near Sutter's Mill in 1848, triggering the California Gold Rush. In either context, the word has become synonymous with discovery.
