Nothing to say, just curious what you think of it

Their conclusions about the deuterium to hydrogen ratio differences could be wrong. I think they started publicizing results and implications before they gave it thought.

I always believe that natural sciences are all waste of time, energy and money if they don't have an effect on lives of ordinary people. Those people are just getting paid for doing nothing. Even the case is getting worse when they are funded by the state.

Let me know when they really invent a valuable thing.

How about the internet you're just using to spout nonsense? Do you think it grows on trees?

It's like you're from the Stone Age or something.

Can the comet probe be considered a break-through for Physics?

Space exploration sure but did any new Physics really come out of this?

Computer Science thing is barely science. But I appreciate the internet as it is a big step toward intercommunication.

Why are you responding to all my posts if you don't like them?

The principles behind the MRI machine came out of physics, discovered by a physicist with no interest in medicine. This is just one example.

A lot of things from physics do a lot of good in things like medical research, as do a lot of things from chemistry. After all biology is just a very complicated chemical and physical system.

A lot of the lab techniques used also rely heavily on discoveries from physics and chemistry.

Fluorescent tagging of proteins, DNA, and RNA.

Xray crystallography of proteins.

Radioactive tagging.

The list goes on indefinitely.
