yes

it sounds that it sounds like that but I have my own take on that maybe I can just share that absolutely you you can always tell me that even if you do do discover dark matter or even if you do know that neutrinos decay into something lighter that doesn't solve any of my problems that doesn't cure cancer or Let's say, I don't know, that doesn't do anything to the technology.

But I think, first of all, the methods you develop to understand any fundamental physics process is helpful.

in other physics things that you do.

As in, let's say, we know a lot about different numerical techniques that are being developed to understand a particular physics process.

So I think that is what this field has to offer to the branch of physics in general.

It might not solve your day-to-day problems, but it teaches you how to approach one.

Do you have anything to say to young people listening who might want a career in astrophysics?
