[edit] Overview
[edit] History
News about the album's title and tracklist were first made public on July 18, 2006 through Crocodile-Music.de news page and EnigmaMusic.com's forums, while the album cover was made public ten days later. The first track from the album to be made public was "Hello and Welcome", released as a stand-alone single in 2005. Enigma's management subsequently stated that a new version would be included on the album, while the lead single off the album proper would be "Goodbye Milky Way".<ref name="crocodilemusic">New Enigma Album.

[edit] Etymology
A posteriori, a Latin phrase translated as "after the fact", refers to empirical knowledge, the epistemological concept of deriving knowledge from past experience.
Eppur si muove, alternately spelled E pur si muove, is an Italian phrase translated to "And yet it moves", attributed to Galileo Galilei after he was sentenced by the Roman Inquisition to recant his belief in heliocentrism.
