“Although that might seem inconsetuqntial, a 1 percent difference can be significantly big in cosmology. And the recently launched Planck observatory should be able to make spectral index measurements to at least that level of sensitivity.”

“A lot of the mathematics discoveries occur through lucky accidents like that, [Calabi notes]. It's often a matter of connecting up ideas that might seem unrelated and then exploiting the newfound connection.”
