Readers of the Terry Pratchett Discworld novels will, of course, know that
there is only one turtle, called the Great A'Tuin. Some thinkers believe that
it (the sex has not yet been determined) is moving through the universe
at a constant pace (the 'steady gait' theory), while others believe that
many turtles are heading for the same place where there will be a unique
cosmic mating followed by the birth of further turtles. This is known as the
big bang theory.
