God’s Number for Rubik’s Cube Figured Out!

This is pretty cool, a group of researchers have figured out what God’s Number for a Rubik’s Cube is. For those unfamiliar with the concept of God’s Number, it’s the minimum amount of moves required to solve a puzzle. The concept originated with the Rubik’s Cube and years after its introduction, God’s Number for the Cube has been found to be 20. This is the absolute maximum of moves you need to solve the Rubik’s Cube. So, mere mortals, those 70 something moves you’ve made in an attempt to solve your Rubik’s Cube, not needed. Damn, all this news does is make me feel stupid.
