Fuzzball

Geek work for today: Fuzzball -- Einstein's General Relativity predicted black holes, areas in space where huge things (like a huge dying star) collapses on itself, forming a region where nothing can escape, not even light. The problem is that the stuff squeezes within this region to a zero sized point. String Theory, on the other hand, predicts a fuzzball of strings in the black hole where nothing can escape.
