a scientific paradigm shift is upon us. A fundamental theory that many subsequent sciences have been based upon has been shown to be in need of a revision. This means that many of the discoveries and theories (especially those of cosmology) that have occurred in the past 40 years are going to be looked upon in an entirely new light. If you thought finding the Higgs boson particle was going to lead to a great scientific revolution, consider these analogies.
Finding Higgs boson is like stubbing your toe. Disproving the theory that nothing can move faster than the speed of light is like getting hit by a fucking freight train.
The next 10 years of scientific revision and discovery is going to change how we look at the world just as Einstein did almost 100 years ago.
