There has been little doubt for a long time, that the so called "standard model" will need a lot of reviewing.

@Fernapple The world’s non-consenting taxpayers are its sole support. In the US, NASA is its “Vatican City”.

@yvilletom No I don't think that is quite fair, given time science can and will move on, indeed it tries to. The Vat-In-can, only moves when forced from the outside.

@Fernapple The UK had its Sydney Chapman, a mathematician. Nothing moved him. [see note below]

Donald E. Scott’s The Electric Sky dealt with funding issues briefly. He’s a retired professor of electrical engineering and electrical engineers have long opposed the standard model.

A Wikipedia note on Chapman:
He disputed and ridiculed the work of Kristian Birkeland and Hannes Alfvén, later adopting Birkeland's theories as his own.
