Forty-two is the Answer to The Ultimate Question Of Life, the Universe and Everything, a fictional solution in Douglas Adams's science fiction series The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. In the story, the Ultimate Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything is sought using the hypercomputer Deep Thought, however the computer was insufficiently powerful to provide the Ultimate Question when asked after it had produced the Answer (after a very long computation time — 7.5 million years). The answer given by Deep Thought prompted the protagonists to embark on a quest to discover the Question to which this is the Answer.

What does 42 refer too? It's very simple:
4 + 2 = 6
6 is 3 + 3
3 is the number of the Trinity.
So, 42 means that there are two Trinities.

In pop culture, 42 is the answer to Life, The Universe, and Everything in the Hitchhiker trilogy by Douglass Adams. Its also one of the cursed numbers on Lost.

42 is the answer to Life, The Universe, and Everything according to Douglas Adams. I see most of the people answering this question seem to agree with this. If you are into Sci Fi, Douglas Adams' books are great.

ha! I, too, thought of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. But i'm pretty sure it's some sort of sex position, though I'm not 100% sure what it involves, so, sorry, i'm not much help... ~m~
