Space Exploration
Summary

Physicists have pretty much solved the standard model of physics, which describes physics extremely accurately. However, there are areas in physics where gaps in knowledge could create warp drives or wormholes, and exploring deeper into the solar system with technologies like the James Webb telescope can lead to new discoveries.
