“When we talk about the big bang or the fabric of space, what we are doing is not a continuation of the free and fantastic stories that humans have told nightly around campfires for hundreds of thousands of years. It is the continuation of something else: of the gaze of those same men in the first light of day looking at tracks left by antelope in the dust of the savannah ? scrutinising and deducting from the details of reality in order to pursue something that we can't see directly but can follow the traces of.

That is the nature of science.”
