An honest measure of great science is simply the depth of the adaptive valley it crosses, whether intellectual, political, or imaginative.
The scientific method is the radio edit of great science.
Historical Examples[edit]
- Jack's trade of a cow for three magic beans in Jack and the Beanstalk fairytale
- Linus Pauling's Triple Helix
- Dirac's prediction of the proton as the antiparticle to the electron
- Einstein's use of the Ricci tensor without subtracting off some multiple of the metric in an early instantiation of gravity theory
