why waste money doing this. Why spend billions making 3 atoms of Uuo, when millions are starving. STEM is oversaturated. Get your degree in Communications or Art, and dont have the wool pulled over your eyes

Imagining if they discovered a new orbital in these experiments, many chemists will refer to it as the 'g' orbital--since the s,p,d, and f orbitals have already been discovered and are in the periodic table. The discovery would be ground breaking and possibilities are almost endless

thejusticar (01/06/2016) [-] you talk about a waste of money then you tell them to get a art degree. 7/10 made me comment.

The human race's defining trait is the desire to explore and discover. If you aren't curious then there's nothing that can be done.

drastronomy (01/05/2016) [-] This is such typical ******** argument
If human lives are more important to you than the advancement of science, sell your pc and do something yourself. You may not want to advance civilization, but the rest of us do.
If we were to priorotise feeding the worlds starving instead of focusing on science, you would soon find you have ended up with more starving people than when you started (due to birthrate **** ) AND with the added bonus of sending the world into an economic darkage because retards like you care more about petty lives than the one thing that matter for humanity - advancing our knowledge about existance and our future. I for one would gladly sacrifice my life it it meant it would advance technology more than i alone have the capacity to throughout my life, yet i would not sacrifice my life to save even a thousand others.

Birthrate stabilises then declines once mortality goes down. It's why the West has a declining population.
If you'd read up you'd know that, but you're to busy thinking STEM is alpha and omega.
And guess what? More people means more human resources. More potential researchers. Not to mention that we need solutions to hunger if we're ever going to do the entire ******* "spread beyond Earth" thing.
Or even just reducing the resources and space we spend on making food.
You're narrow-sighted.

drastronomy (01/06/2016) [-] Birthrate stabilizes only through natural progression
that means no foreign aid
Which is the exact opposite of what we are doing

So you are seriously asking why we invest into science that has the chance of unlucking new future possibilities, instead of throwing money into the mouths of starving people.
There's around 7.3 billion people in this world, we don't need to keep them all alive, let the people who can't provide for themselves or the kids they CHOSE to have, die out.
