Here's a simple fact that gave me pause. Below I've drawn two graphs: y^2 = x^3 + 1 AND y^2 = x^3 + 2 The equations are almost the same. The graphs look almost the same. But there's a crucial difference! The first curve has FINITELY many rational points (in red). But the

Here's a simple fact that gave me pause.

Below I've drawn two graphs:

y^2 = x^3 + 1

AND

The graphs look almost the same. 
But there's a crucial difference!

The first curve has FINITELY many rational points (in red).
