13 Things That Dont Make ‘Sense’

Woke up early today and read the newspapers (doesnt happen that oftern I tell ya). Anyhow. Here is an interesting article for all the geeks and non-geeks out there.

1. The placebo effect - You Eat Paneer, Chicken tastes like Paneer
2. The horizon problem - Can something REALLy travel faster than light? How about the expanding universe itself?
3. Ultra-energetic cosmic rays - Where are they coming from?
4. Belfast homeopathy results - Homeopathy works! Rejoice!
5. Dark matter - What makes up 60% of our universe?
6. Viking’s methane - Methane on Mars.
7. Tetraneutrons - Four neutrons bound together in a way that defies the laws of physics
8. The Pioneer anomaly - Trajectories of Pioneer 10 and 11 have been very different from each other
9. Dark energy - Not from Star Wars ;) 10. The Kuiper cliff - The planet beyond Pluto.
11. The Wow signal - Message from outer space?
12. Not-so-constant constants - Changing the light- matter interaction
13. Cold fusion - Your domesticated enegery source!

Why 13? Its in the spirit of the science I suppose!

For the Math geeks, there are the usual Millenium Problems. :) Oh ya, fellows, sorry for the big-ass image in the previous post, it was a shoddy job. Got too many complaints.. :) Apologies.

Giving in to the temptation!
