two experts in non-linear dynamics, Gert van der Heijden and Eugene Starostin of University College London, present the solution. This article seems awfully convinced that these guys have solved the puzzle. I don't know if that's true. If you ask me, this reporting is pretty one-sided.

The Moebius strip was named after a German mathematician, August Ferdinand Moebius, who discovered it in 1858.
Another German, Johann Benedict Listing, separately discovered it in the same year.
Seems a bit hard to believe that nobody twisted a piece of paper and glued the two pieces together until 1858.
