There are actually so many unsolved problems in all areas of science, that the task of creating a complete list of them would in fact be another unsolved problem.

Many of these problems are well documented on the Internet. This hypography features web directories which have collected problems in areas like mathematics, astrophysics, physics and cosmology.
