Now, the crackpots will be out in force saying "See! Science is at an end! There are things it can't explain! There therefore must be an intelligent designer intentionally confounding the attempts of humans to tinker with Things Man Was Not Meant To Know..." et cetera. I'll just leave them out in the pottery shed; these thirteen things are really interesting, and while most of them probably won't pan out, if any of them do then there's some damned interesting advances going on. These are all under fairly active research (for the theoretical ones and the more well-understood experimental ones [like cosmic rays] people are working hard on them, and for the stranger experimental ones [like tetraneutrons, or one they forgot, the magnetic monopole] people are still waiting for experimental confirmation).
