We present a few results of modern Set Theory, with a special emphasis on the Continuum Hypothesis and the possibility of solving the question after the well known negative results of Godel and Cohen. The developments of the past two decades arguably prove that the problem makes sense, and very recent results seem to pave the way for a possible solution.
