Academic physicists have been consistently wrong about technology from the telephone to manned flight.
Sean Carroll says we'll never make use of the Casimir Effect in the next 1000 years.
Lockheed Skunkworks Engineer Charles Chase, "I would love to prove him wrong."
Maryna Viazovska, a mathematician from Kyiv, was awarded the Fields Medal in 2022—one of the most prestigious honors in mathematics—for solving the problem of sphere packing in eight-dimensional space.
Notably, before her breakthrough, the problem had only been solved in three dimensions, and that solution spanned 300 pages. Viazovska’s proof, in contrast, was just 23 pages long and stood out for its remarkable elegance.
She also holds the distinction of being only the second woman ever to receive the Fields Medal.
The Tsiolkovsky Rocket Equation derived by the Russian schoolteacher Tsiolkovsky in 1898 describes how rockets move in space - expelling part of its mass.

The @NASA_SLS rocket in the Block 1B cargo configuration will launch for the first time beginning with @NASAArtemis IV. This upgraded and more powerful SLS rocket will enable SLS to send over 38 metric tons (83,700 lbs.) to the Moon, including the @NASA_Orion spacecraft and its crew, along with heavy payloads for more ambitious missions to deep space.
While every SLS rocket retains the core stage, booster, and RS-25 engine designs, the Block 1B features a more powerful exploration upper stage with four RL10 engines for in-space propulsion and a new universal stage adapter for greater cargo capability and volume.
As @NASA and its Artemis partners aim to explore the Moon for scientific discovery and in preparation for future missions to Mars, the evolved Block 1B design of the SLS rocket will be key in launching Artemis astronauts, modules or other exploration spacecraft for long-term exploration, and key components of Gateway lunar space station.
