Despite what the 'media' tells us, Astrophysicists are in the business of new discovery. Nothing is 'settled' for them.
Climate scientists believe in 'settled science', and aren't really scientists anyway. They deserve your derision.
On the contrary, for almost a century now, gravity theory cosmologists have been denying the existence of electric currents and charge separation in space, claiming the existence of magnetic structures without the flow of electrons without evidence, and calling plasma mere hot gasses, ignoring its actual nature of ionized atoms stripped of electrons which are free flowing through the plasma, creating the magnetic fields. They have ignored the existence of electricity we are seeing everywhere we look in the structures in space, which is scalable from the microcosm in the laboratory to the macrocosm in intergalactic space, which also explains ever structure we see and predicts what we see without resorting to the invention of non-existent dark matter or dark energy which cannot be found or seen. Electromagnetism is 39 orders of magnitude stronger than gravity and, like gravity, is also infinite in reach, yet gravity cosmologists choose to ignore that force as having ANYTHING to do with driving the universe because they made the assumption that charges cannot be separated. . . Despite the fact we can see and demonstrate charge separation everywhere we look.
The orthodox cosmologists have been in denial and are perpetually surprised while the Electric/Plasma Universe Cosmologists have been predicting everything that are perpetually surprising the orthodox cosmologists.
