In others words, science is settled, eh?
As you know, throughout history, men, scientists even, have said the same thing about discoveries and inventions.
The Sun revolves around the Earth, heavy than air machines will never fly, "Everything that can be invented has been invented."
And then there's this (in "Flying Machines Which Do Not Fly," NY Times, October 9, 1903):
🛩️[Back in 1903, the venerable New York Times boldly declared that] Airplanes will take between 1 and 10 million years to develop.
“In others words, science is settled, eh?”
No, I said ‘probably”. I also explained why I thought so. I could be wrong, of course, but so could you.
