More work needs to be done before the dust is settled (literally), but interestingly it seems that the final word on this particular result will have to come from a joint effort between
PLANCK Planck and BICEP2. The two groups have complementary data: BICEP2 is looking at a very specific location of the sky and at a very specific frequency, but with high sensitivity to polarized radiation. PLANCK is looking to the whole sky and at 9 different frequencies. Overall only
PLANCK Planck can characterize the galactic dust foreground while BICEP2 is sensitive enough to detect the presence of a B-mode polarization from cosmological inflation. That's why the two competing teams decided to join forces and collaborate on a paper where they will jointly analyze the combined data.
\textbf{While this intriguing story reminds us that trial and error will always be part of the scientific process, it also stresses that open science and collaboration are the future of scientific research.}
