Mathematician Finds Solution to One of The
Oldest Problems in Algebra
"Solving one of the oldest algebra problems isn't a bad
claim to fame, and it's a claim Norman Wildberger can now
make: The mathematician has solved what are known as
higher-degree polynomial equations, which have been
puzzling experts for nearly 200 years."

Quantum Teleportation Achieved Over Internet
For The First Time
"A quantum state of light was successfully teleported
through more than 30 kilometers (around 18 miles) of fiber
optic cable amid a torrent of internet traffic – a feat of
engineering once considered impossible."

What is Dark Energy?
"The standard cosmological model is simple. The expanding
Universe has the total mass density corresponding to a
nearly flat geometry and its mass budget today is
dominated by two components: a cosmological constant -
labeled as “dark energy” and weakly-interacting particles
- labeled as “dark matter."

‘Once in a Century’ Proof Settles Math's
Kakeya Conjecture
"The deceptively simple Kakeya conjecture has bedeviled
mathematicians for 50 years. A new proof of the conjecture
in three dimensions illuminates a whole crop of related
problems. "

Scientists Confirm The Universe Is Expanding
Too Fast
"For the better part of a century, astronomers have
understood that what started as a concentration of mass
and energy crammed into a confined space is now a dazzling
spread of galaxies cast adrift on an expanding sea of
nothingness."

Dark Energy May Not Exist: Something
Stranger Might Explain The Universe
"There might not be a mysterious 'dark' force accelerating
the expansion of the Universe after all. The truth could
be much stranger – bubbles of space where time passes at
drastically different rates."
