It was nice to hear about some of the things keeping astrophysicists busy,
like being able to restart _only_ that part of a simulation that failed and all of its dependent parts.
Apparently, when astrophysicists are not busy playing guitar (but no synthesizers!).
Also nice to hear Ken Olum talk about (hyper)cubes on the 3³-th day of the 2³-th month.

The discovery of the Big Ring makes it to the frontpage of the Financial Times!
"This Big Ring of galaxies and galaxy clusters joins an expanding catalogue of mammoth structures that defy scientific expectation."

It's a new day and our ideas of how the universe is structured have changed dramatically.

Michio Kaku: “The mind of God, we believe, is cosmic music. The music of strings resonating through 11-dimensional hyperspace.”

The Big Bang should have made cracks in spacetime—why haven’t we found them?
Cosmic strings' greatest power? Their ability to confound physicists.
