The average distance of the Moon from the Earth is 384,400 km (238,900 mi), or 1.28 light-seconds.
The beacon block is crafted from glass blocks, obsidian and a Nether Star. Place the beacon block atop a pyramid of some combination of iron, gold, diamond and emerald blocks. The pyramid can be 1â4 layers high; youâll need 9 blocks for the top layer, 25 for the second, 49 for the third and 81 for the last. The more layers you build, the larger the area of the beaconâs effects and the more effects you will have access to.
This is a python module to simplify using the NIST randomness beacon, a public source of truly random numbers. The Beacon will broadcast full-entropy bit-strings in blocks of 512 bits every 60 seconds. Each such value is time-stamped and signed, and includes the hash of the previous value to chain the sequence of values together.
