## About

This project simulates the solar photon random walk model where photons follow random paths as they escape from the sun. 

During their journey they collide with each other resulting in changing directions constantly. This means that a single 

photon will need hundreds of thousands of years to reach the surface and continue to outer space. Until now physicists 

have not reach to an agreement about the constants that rule the particular model, but we are able to simulate the 

process in order to experience this phenomenon.
