Abstract or Brief Description

Whenever I get tired of the insanity of human politics (which is all the time these days), I read about astrophysics and cosmology. What I like about this field is that it’s perhaps the most high minded of scientific pursuits; it’s driven not by the search for wealth or technological gain, but by the innate desire to understand the cosmos. Of course, human sociology does enter the equation (as always), which is why astrophysics provides a fascinating window into both the universe at large, as well as the philosophy of scientific progress.

My reading of modern astrophysics and cosmology is that the field is in the midst of a (slow-burning) scientific revolution. Let me tell you about it.
