No cap... this is actually pretty smart and how IPv6 should have been designed in the first place

Perfectly compatible with the old IPv4 space

Northern lights may be visible from several US states Friday and Saturday as giant hole opens up in sun's atmosphere

A large hole opened up in the sun's atmosphere this week, spewing high-speed solar winds that will paint northern lights displays across several U.S. states this weekend.

I assumed this was a 1 April publication but nope, it appears to be real. My favorite part is how it basically pretends IPv6 doesn't exist except for a couple mentions of basically "no one likes v6."

Internet Protocol Version 8 (IPv8)

Internet Protocol Version 8 (IPv8) is a managed network protocol suite that transforms how networks of every scale -- from home networks to the global internet -- are operated, secured, and monitored. Every manageable element in an IPv8 network is authorised via OAuth2 JWT tokens served from a local cache. Every service a device requires is delivered in a single DHCP8 lease response. Every packet transiting to the internet is validated at egress against a DNS8 lookup and a WHOIS8 registered active route. Network telemetry, authentication, name resolution, time synchronisation, access control, and translation are unified into a single coherent Zone Server platform. IPv4 is a proper subset of IPv8. An IPv8 address with the routing prefix field set to zero is an IPv4 address. No existing device, application, or network requires modification. The suite is 100% backward compatible. There is no flag day and no forced migration at any layer. IPv8 also resolves IPv4 address exhaustion. Each Autonomous System Number (ASN) holder receives 4,294,967,296 host addresses. The global routing table is structurally bounded at one entry per ASN.

The first black hole ever discovered is spewing 'dancing jets' at half the speed of light

Astronomers have accurately measured the "dancing" energy jets of the first confirmed black hole, Cygnus X-1, more than 60 years after it was first spotted.
