A bug starts at one [[vertex]] of a [[cube (geometry) | cube]] and moves along the [[edge]]s of the cube according to the following rule. At each vertex the bug will choose to travel along one of the three edges emanating from that vertex. Each edge has equal [[probability]] of being chosen, and all choices are independent. What is the probability that after seven moves the bug will have visited every vertex exactly once?
