Yes I believe your right about science giving a lot more in the future Alex. I hope that we can have an impact on people's health and serious disease. There is no doubt that it has had a huge effect in the last century and you and I have directly benefited.
One thing I do ponder about is are we learning too much without first understanding it.
I am not an expert on Physics or science as I channelled my skills into construction but to me exploring the very fabric of our existence are we in danger of setting of a chain reaction that we have no control over. It's just a pondering and probably something someone can answer. I realise that it's also a bit of a quandary as how can we understand something if we can not explore or test what it is that we wish to learn.
The other question is do we really need to know everything in life?
Does it really matter if we find life on another planet? What would we gain?
