    I read a SciFi book where there was a group in the world that does general science in the name of averting the heat death of the universe.

      Ah yes, the ol’ “If a tree falls in the woods does it make a sound?” approach to preventing the death of the universe.

          Existence is in the eye of the beholder. For something to exist it must be observed.

          It sounds like in the book you read performing general science would go towards observing the universe preventing its heat death?

          I dunno if fully applicable, but that’s what I got out of it :D
