Moser's Worm Problem [Unsolved]

What's the smallest convex shape that can cover every unit-length curve?

A disk of diameter 1 covers every such curve but with area π/4≈0.7854 it's not the smallest shape

In fact we know that the minimal area is between 0.232239 and 0.270911861

One time in 2017 when I was teaching teachers how to deliver good sex ed in schools, at the beginning of the course, the headteacher came to me & said ‘We had a meeting and we all agreed that we will say ‘penis’ but none of us are comfortable saying ‘vagina’ in lessons.’

Dammit, now there's a burn ban on! I guess we'll be doing another NSO Glow Show. Thanks, @exxonmobil@twitter.com! 😠🚫🔥

Me: I have been training my whole career for this moment.
