Will Octopus Solve Rubic’s Cube?
Wednesday, July 9, 2008 16:46
Scientists don’t expect an octopus to solve the Rubic’s cube but they did gave it a shot! Twenty five octopuses were given the famous puzzle not to solve it but to show marine biologists which one of the 8 arms is their favourite to use. In this research 23 European centers are participating, handing out toys and food as stimulants to the octopus to interact. The results will be reported some time in the Autumn.
