The Problem With the Nobel Prize

The Nobel Prizes are all done at the same time. I think it's your perception of time. The economics one has been given for the gravitational wave discovery and it was given jointly to three gentlemen who were involved with the organizations that made the discovery. There's a rule that Nobel Prizes have to be given to people, individuals, and no more than three. But LIGO is this massive collaboration. Lots and lots of different people are involved, but just three people get the medal and the money.
