We have eight light bulbs, placed on the eight lattice points (points with integer coordinates) in space that are $\sqrt{3}$ units away from the origin. Each light bulb can either be turned on or off. These lightbulbs are unstable, however. If two light bulbs that are at most 2 units apart are both on simultaneously, they both explode. Given that no explosions take place, how many possible configurations of on/off light bulbs exist? [i]Proposed by Lewis Chen[/i]
