We give a negative answer to Kirchberg's norm-ultrapower embedding problem. We construct an explicit separable unital full group C ∗ -algebra that admits no unital embedding into B ω , for any nonzero unital nuclear C ∗ -algebra B and any free ultrafilter ω on ℕ. In particular, it does not embed unitally into $\mathcal O_2^\omega$.
