What are you excited about in regards to science these days? Many of you are scientists, I am not. Therefore, I rely pretty heavily on following your posts on Hubski and getting input from people like b_b, mk, thundara, theadvancedapes etc.
Way back in my early days on Hubski all the rage was the higgs boson or #higgsy. Where are we in regards to the higgs boson discovery? What new science has come of this. Also, the Mars rover was a big deal but you don't hear much about Mars these days. What gives?
Right now I feel like science is spending so much time defending itself that we don't hear as much about it's accomplishments. Anti-vaxers, creationists etc suck a lot of energy out of the room.
Forget them.
What's going on in science these days that has you excited? You don't need to be a scientist to reply.
Thanks in advance.
