In 1752 Goldbach conjectured that every odd integer can be written in the form p + 2a^2, where p is unity or a prime and a is allowed to be zero.
This conjecture is found to be false - there are only two known composite exceptions, 5777 (=53*109) being one of them.
Please find the other, it is below 99,999.
The link below gives the answer as well as some history and interesting math.
