    I’m a geologist and fractals are dominant in many geologic features. That’s why geologist’s photos always have something like a pen, notebook, person or car, etc., in them for scale, a little tiny fault can otherwise look the same as one 500 feet tall, for example.

      I've always had this thought that macro and micro are essentially similar and kind of a matter of perspective. I've started thinking about it when I learned that electrons revolve around the nucleus just like our Earth around the sun and the sun around the Milky Way etc.

      Ah yes, the obligatory reference to 'woo' when anything crops up that suggests a possible contradiction of the culturally pre-determined dogmatism of the philosophical physicalism of scientism (as distinct from genuine science). But real science is more open-minded and open-ended, with no need to adopt defensive postures.

      @Skylancer727 หลายเดือนก่อน +17

      ​@richardoldfield6714 No that's incorrect. Science is not an open minded process, science is the process of taking a definitive fact and using observation for understanding. Throwing theories at the window isn't science. Science is the not the process of just imagining ideas, it's the process of study and examination.
      Something like MOND or string theory is science purely because each explain things were currently don't understand, even if both are likely wrong. Your explanation has to at least be logical on the surface.

It does not rule out things without strong evidence to do so ... and even then is open to the possibility of new, contrary evidence emerging later.
