When was Max Planck's major paper on blackbody radiation published? Just looking for the year.

It's 1900 plus or minus 5, I know that much.

How about 1896?

Mmm, yes. Some of these questions do get to be more Specific Knowledge of General Things, which really cuts out a lot of the people who can "play". Guessing is not satisfying for the guesser or the person who posted the question.

But 1897.

It's just as general as half of the stuff in here, such as the World Cup ones a bit back which people continued with. This paper is kind of important in that it is basically the first major paper that began Quantum Mechanics.

Not accepting those, three60. I am disappoint.

But you could just guess Brazil, couldn't you.  Everyone knows soccer exists and could guess who won a world cup.  But about two people here will know Max Planck, that he wrote a paper, and maybe one of them might be able to guess a decade.

Guessing how many countries participated in a World Cup and who pulled out of a specific World Cup are a lot different than guessing who won a World Cup.

Ya, well the first human discovery of vision is pretty important to Human Kind, but I have yet to read the paper on THAT!....  ::)

1901

(Pssst!: Everyone guess ONE of J360's guesses...)
