The board game Go has more possible legal positions than the number of atoms in the visible universe.

The statement is true because the complexity and vast number of possible legal positions in the board game Go surpasses the number of atoms in the visible universe. Go is a strategy game played on a grid board with black and white stones, and the objective is to claim territory. The board size can vary, and each player takes turns placing stones to build their influence. With each move, the number of possible legal positions exponentially increases, making the game incredibly intricate and virtually impossible to calculate all the potential combinations. While the exact number of legal positions is difficult to determine, it has been estimated to be in the range of 10^170, which is much greater than the estimated number of atoms in the visible universe.
