Re: Will science end?
A related, but probably easier-to-answer question: are there any specific fields of science that have already ended?
Like, a branch of science or a field of study that you wouldn't be able to write a bachelor thesis in, because everything has already been written. All the questions have been answered, other than "how do we apply this to other fields?"
Because after three million years of research and three hundred years of science, if we haven't even completed a single specific topic, then I'm pretty confident we won't ever finish.
I'm thinking, maybe, the Statics branch of Classical Mechanics? Or Euclidian Geometry? Does that still have any open questions? It seems largely solved to me.
