As for sticking strictly to presently known science, I will simply point out that we have already experienced at least two major revolutions in science in this century alone.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Much of contemporary science is really the length and shadow of the technology we apply.
Science shouldn't be just for scientists, and there are encouraging signs that it is becoming more pervasive in culture and the media.
If you look at the history of our country over the last 100 years, there have been periods where science and research have been celebrated. They were really kind of held up as heroes in society, which encouraged a generation of people to go into these fields.
We will always have more to discover, more to invent, more to understand and that's much closer to art and literature than any science.
The most important scientific revolutions all include, as their only common feature, the dethronement of human arrogance from one pedestal after another of previous convictions about our centrality in the cosmos.
Almost everything that distinguishes the modern world from earlier centuries is attributable to science, which achieved its most spectacular triumphs in the seventeenth century.
I like to believe that science is becoming mainstream. It should have never been something that sort of geeky people do and no one else thinks about. Whether or not, it will always be what geeky people do. It should, as a minimum, be what everybody thinks about because science is all around us.
The idea that science is just some luxury that you'll get around to if you can afford it is regressive to any future a country might dream for itself.
You should only go into science if you really have a yearning to make scientific discoveries.
I saw science as being in harmony with humanity.
