Predictably, the IERS announced yesterday that there will be no leap second introduced at the end of June 2022. The current UTC-TAI value of -37 seconds will presumably remain in effect until at least the end of December 2022.
Also, I read an article the other day about some physicists who had made siginifigant progress in the search for a solution to the three body problem. The article hypes it up [of course] as "cracking" the problem, but I'd be very interested to hear everyone's thoughts.
