Does this happen before or after consuming a full bag of funions?

Not at all. But it’s wrong to read too much into it if the answer is “we don’t know yet.”

When scientists discovered the electron, many people asked the same “so what” question and there wasn’t really an answer at the time. Now we have a global society running on electricity because of those electrons.

Not wrong to ask. Maybe wrong to be disappointed. Just means we need to know more!

Thanks for doing this! Fascinating stuff. 2 questions!

Have physics measured the magnetic moment of all other charged particles(such as the Tau)? Was the muon the only particle to display this apparent discrepancy from the predicted value?

With regard to the statistical significance of the detection, what would it take to reach a higher degree of confidence and, dare I say, certainty? Conversely, is it possible that any new force is so weakly interactive that even a larger scale experiment would notice the same results?

Can you shed any insight as to why trained astronauts were assigned as CAPCOM? Any particular reason this job wasn’t held by other Houston ground crew?
