Is that so?

On February 14th video in YouTube's ThunderboltsProject channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGj-yFP ... e=emb_logo), Mr. Thornhill stated "... there have been no breakthroughs in Science since early last century..."

Really?

Depends on definition.

Mr. Thornhill stated "... there have been no breakthroughs in Science since early last century..."

It seems obvious that the statement is consistent with Thornhill's writings, on the Holoscience site and other published material. Of course, it is understood that one has the option to agree or disagree with that body of work.

Well ... name some FUNDAMENTAL breakthrough that has taken place in SCIENCE since then?

I happen to think science is seriously broken in multiple arenas right now.

Primarily because those controlling it's direction and funding have other agendas than actually understanding the nature of reality.

Astrophysics is just one arena.

Another is climatology.

And there are others.

Even the current Covid *science* efforts have gone off the rail because of political and economic agendas.

I would put ALL of physics in the controlled-by-government camp.

I had a friend with a PhD in Physics from Stanford who lamented that all the jobs for physicists ended-up being for weapons work for the government. This was 20 years ago.

What money is not for supporting weapons work goes to boondoggles like super-colliders and gravity wave detectors. The former being obscenely expensive, and the latter being extremely long term ( in other words, guaranteed income ).

The television show, "The Big Bang Theory" - while funny as hell, did not give a very credible portrayal of actual physics work these days.
