The Pioneer Anomaly & Other Breaking Physics News 100
David Harris, editor-in-chief at Symmetrymagazine.org (a joint publication of Fermilab and SLAC), sends us to his blog covering the American Physical Society meeting now going on in St. Louis. Among the breaking physics news relating to topics we have discussed in the past: results that explain about 1/3 of the Pioneer anomaly by differential heat flow in the spacecraft; an analysis of the Fermilab Tevatron's chances of spotting the Higgs "God particle"; and a hint that an Italian team has replicated their results from the year 2000 pointing to a detection of dark matter.

So some of the briliant, insightful comments by my fellow shashdotters may get buried.
On the other hand, we may get somebody posting a fantastic Theory of Everything that shows that the other two-thirds of the reason why Pioneer is off-course is because it is being bombarded with Higgs particles while bumping into dark matter.
But yes, I suppose that your prediction of stupid comments is also possible. It's 50/50 really.

I read the article on Higgs, and it is entirely conjecture based on specified rumor after rumor. Is this TMZ.com?
Rumors? About me? *sigh* I'm always the last to hear of them.

Electric Universe is as evil as God singularity evil.
I have $10,000.000 that I will wager that Cubicism transcends and disproves Electric Universism.
