    50 years First ARPANET Connection Challenge
    Please join PrimeGrid as we run a 5 day challenge to celebrate 50 years from when the first ARPANET data message was sent between two networked computers. Arpanet was renamed the Internet in 1984, when it linked 1,000 hosts at university and corporate labs.This challenge runs from October 24th 00:00 UTC through October 29th 00:00 UTC on our 321 Prime Search (LLR) Project.Last month we found the first known AP27 during the Oktoberfest challenge. Will history repeat itself with the discovery of the first 321 prime in more than 4 years?For more information and discussion, please head over to the official challenge thread: https://www.primegrid.com/forum_thread.php?id=8855Good luck!
