He said the sun is powered by fusion:
He was probably right, too.
I was going to comment on this. It is astounding to think that the person who first figured out how the Sun works was still alive in 2005. This shows how short the history of science has been. The most fundamental questions, such as how the sun shines and how cells reproduce, were answered only yesterday. Just imagine how much more we will know if science is allowed to continue for 10,000 years! Yet clowns like Horgan say we have reached the end of science already, and they are doing their level best to fulfill this prophesy. Fleischmann thinks they will win. I hope not, but I don't know.
