wait, one of Maxwells equations states that monopoles are impossible, that’s a lot of textbooks that would have to be rewritten 😂

Which would be awesome. I love it when there is a breakthrough big enough to mean rewrites have to happen.
They “rewrite” them every year anyway so might as well get some new science in there
IIRC he wrote his equations assuming that magnetic monopoles are impossible because we’ve never found one. There are a lot of things that would be more symmetric if they existed, though.
Weren’t Magnetic Monopoles discovered a few yars ago already? Im sure i saw some article about it.
Magnetic monopoles, cheap high-capacity batteries, cold fusion, carbon capture, they all find their way into headlines every once and a while.
