Comment on 'Pi in the Sky' by Frolop and Scott: They Lie

Popular Physics 2017-04-17 v1 Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics

Abstract

Frolop and Scott (2016) claim significant 1-1 correspondence between anomalies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and the digits of pi, which they call 'Pi in the Sky'. They have without attribution republished the famous work of Joe Hill (Hill 1911), who first proposed this idea, then repudiated it.
