Are we headed for a scientific dark age?
>>74103074
No, science is just heading in a different direction.
>>74103074
If the shitskins overrun us, then yeah. But even then, there's always the Asians. Hopefully they get off this putrid little rock and an asteroid hits the reset button.
>>74103200
Yes, instead of exploring the universe we're exploring how fucked up a society can get before it collapses.
Grant money well spent!
>>74103200
This. Believe it or not, but globalism actually increases the amount of scientific research and new breakthroughs.
>>74103074
muzzies don't like science. more funding for space programs could offend them
We need to crash a planet into mars to make it remotely inhabitable.
>>74103074
Where's my asteroid mining job god dammit
>>74103074
Yup, a literal one as well.
Hope you enjoyed it.
>>74103339
Globalism does no such thing. Globalism merely increases the illusions of scientific breakthroughs all the while running around like a chicken with it's head cut off while screaming about how the sky is falling, aka Climate Change.
Yes. We are forcing scientists to constantly publish meaningless bullshit rather then actually take the time to fully research and develop something.
Einstein spent YEARS working on general relativity before publishing. That is impossible to do now in a publish or perish research environment.

Welfare dark age.
It'll be like the cyberpunk super rich and powerful vs mindless poorfags, but without the cool cyberpunk parts.
>>74103300
They've been trying.

I'd be okay with that.
Only degenerate research gets funding nowadays
>>74104235
This really.
>Please fund my research into why White men are so evil and how we can make black men more appealing to white women
>Only 40,000$!
>>74103074
Money is being spent on social "science" instead of actual science. Fucking SJWs.
>>74103339
not at all. Only wars increase the number of scientific inventions. evrey usefull technology you use today probably designed for millitary purposes.
>>74103991
Dude weed lmao + force will keep them in check.

our government spent 100,000$ buying iPads for preschool kids
>>74103991
If the 19th and 20th century favored the poor (it did,) the 21st century favors the rich. History ebbs and flows between Labor and Capital and it's now Capital's turn for the long term (who knows what'll be what in the 22nd century though.)
>>74103074
Commercial spaceflight is quickly making NASA and all national space agencies largely irrelevant. Everyone can see the writing on the wall, just very few people want to admit it. Its why almost every space agency has transitioned away from manned activities over the last decade, focusing on pure science missions with unmanned probes that for-profit corporations are far less likely to bother with.
>>74103200
its gonna be virtual reality first then mars colony, i bought a magazine about virtual reality and different technologies, its coming closer then we think and its been here since the late 80's.

>>74105606
He meant that science is going to be less of a priority, ergo darkness.
>>74105431
You must be joking. The only major contract supplier for commercial space companies is NASA.

A scientific dark age is actually unlikely because the financial order as is won't be around much longer. All of the pieces that the powers-at-be are going to fall by the way side because of this point. >>74104412
The banks are ignorant of the humanities therefore they will lose everything, because the humanities itself is the study of power. From where I'm standing, every single scheme that's being implemented by the globalists is another step to suicide.
Dark age is great...religon and state will be at harmony and so will social moral ethics

>>74106213
Nobody understands the Dark Ages because the name itself is a misnomer. The Dark Ages was only 'bad' for Rome. The world kept on ticking, including the "Roman Empire." Reading this book gives a much better picture of what life was like then anything else.
>>74103339
What is NS Germany, what is bugerland, what is slavshit land?
They didn't use (((g-g-g-globalism))) to that shit, you fucking kike...
Now get the fuck out of here.
>>74106058
You've got to start somewhere, the big private spaceflight companies are already starting to plan and work toward their own projects that don't involve NASA.
>>74106394
This is the most retarded notion that /pol/ has ever come up with. You don't submit scientific research to patent offices, you fucking retards.
>>74103074
dark age was when flaming oil barrels were launched at dead rocks for the sake of 'prestige'
hopefully science will turn to theoretical physics until something meaningful comes around.
sending bunch of retards on mars would be a great idea were it not so expensive.
>>74105449
>VR now
OH SHIT NIGGA. Who knew that putting on horse blinders and attaching a samsung galaxy 2 inches from your eyes was the VIRTUAL REALITY we've been waiting for!
But the dark ages of technology was the highpoint of human civilization.
We've been in the dark ages ever since humanity stagnated progress over unnecessary trash like equality and diversity.
>>74107003
And they wont get anywhere without a significant push by world governments to build space infrastructure with tax money. The cost of entry is way to high. These companies would not become solvent for centuries if they tried to build the space stations and attendent orbital craft neccessary to capitalize space.
>>74103074
We are currently in a scientific dark age
When was the last breakthrough of science? decades ago
Its PC, it is doing the same religion did back then, dont dare question PC or you get de-funded

>Globalism is responsible for all the worlds evils.
Globalism is directly responsible for the hegemonic power that the English language holds, and because nearly all scientific papers are now published in a common lingua franca, research becomes a thousand times easier to disseminate and be built upon.
>>74107880
The cost of entry is certainly high, which is why they are piggybacking off national space programs for now. But it would not take centuries to become solvent, the technology is all there to start mining asteroids. Exploit a single water rich asteroid, and suddenly the cost of space industry becomes dirt cheap. Exploit an asteroid rich in platinum or rare earth elements, and you could potentially double the world's GDP.

as a hint, when a company like apple is considered an "innovator", there's a problem
