Сергей Зайцев - Want be a scientist? Read it!

Thus, it is possible to compensate insufficient depth of thoughts with success in its length. If in a science something also becomes useful it is done by 20% of scientific employees. And the others of 80% think, that they are a part of these of 20%.

The main thing in scientific activity, as well as in any another – vigour! It is necessary to shake up intensively foam to be kept afloat. The normal situation is when from you all constantly wait great свершений and hope, that too from a pie the huge piece will get to them. And so it is necessary to promise to all more and to support their silly expectations indefinitely. While one soap bubble bursts, it is necessary to have time to inflate some more. In a science it is necessary to be able to live «on credit», and thus the credit never to give. It is the general principle. Napoleon considered, that to tower, it is necessary to promise as much as possible, and to carry out nothing. And at all desire to execute promised almost always it is very difficult. It is not necessary and overstrain. As who from sciences has told Saadi «has decided to take the income, that and will deceive, and the people».

There are two main principles of fraud in a science: Nasreddin’s principle and to frighten all. Nasreddin’s principle is to promise anything you like through 10÷20 years. So, Nasreddin promised to learn a donkey for 20 years to speak, knowing, that in 20 years or the padishah, either a donkey, or Nasreddin will die. V.I.Lenin and N.S.Hrushchev’s Nasreddin’s pupils perfectly well used this reception. The first promised communism in 10 years after revolution. Also has made a fool of all country. The second in the early sixties promised to construct in 20 years communism – in 1980 year! To it, the truth, already practically nobody trusted. A typical example of application of this principle in a science – constant promises to make a thermonuclear reactor in 20 years. Even kalambur on this theme have thought up. Ask: «When, at last, a thermonuclear reactor start, after all so much years have passed?!» – the answer always one: «As well as promised! In 20 years!». How many means under this байку have exhausted from the state, does not give in to an estimation. And examples it is possible to result a heap.

The second principle – to frighten. It is AIDS, the bird’s and pork flu, global warming (a global cold snap if it is not possible to frighten, for example, Eskimos warming), possible collision of the Earth with an asteroid, an ozone gap in atmosphere, the black hole in collider, «which will gobble up all of us», «red mercury» and other бредятина. By the way, has heard recently kalambur, that everyone 13 billion years leading physicists from all world gather and start to build Big adron collider- the brightest example showing a modern condition of a science and a society. Means for this «Babilon tower» are spent the huge. The purposes are absolutely not clear to the overwhelming majority not only the population, but also to the government officials allocating on it Money. Yes that it! To the majority of scientists these purposes are not clear. And here, at last declared, that with some probability have found out Higgs boson. Also what now? And Higgs it knows! leaves that the aether all the same is? Or not?

Is not present, it is better to continue and continue this building and in general to play for time and money, While all its initiators not dye. All according to Law Паркинсона: for what the establishment (the ministry, an industry, etc. has been created.), eventually, it starts to work only for self-preservation. The majority of grandiose projects are necessary only… To their heads. Projects of piloted flights concern the same category to Mars, initially senseless Soviet shuttle «Snow-storm» and rocket Н1 also. Still a magnificent feeding trough – INTOR (the international thermonuclear reactor). Its termination of building is planned already for 2040! Here beauty! All the same before payment anybody from initiators will not live. And there after us though a flood!

There is also a possibility to turn the old goods, to give it the bright name. It, for example, nanotechnology. What is such, anybody distinctly to formulate till now cannot, but in it are engaged now all. For example, people silently were engaged earlier in powder metallurgy. Now they, it appears, are engaged nanotechnology! And what has changed? Absolutely anything except the name. It is a lot of years and without them it was known, that all-round miniaturization is a main way of development of a science and technics. This truism have now lifted on a board and began to cry out, as though they have thought up it. And this nanonism to supervise which have put all the celebrated personality, recently abruptly grows in the plan PR. To people «give» the silliest tales about crowd any nanorobots (on their slang – nanobots) which ostensibly will collect something useful from separate atoms In the garbage container. This shocking obscurantism! In a century before last the impossibility of «devil of Makswell» has been convincingly proved. Any competent physicist perfectly knows about it. Or esteem the book of one of founders of quantum mechanics E.Shredinger «That such a life». There it in detail considers the given question. All this delirium obviously contradicts a science and thermodynamics in particular.

Also will be never the such nanobots, «devils of Makswell», even «Chubays’s devils».

Still there was an artful maneuver which I at all do not know, to what section to carry. These are nuclear filters. Short for those who does not know – make on the accelerator bombardment by heavy ions of a layer of a thin polymeric film, and then chemically pickle it, and in tracks from ions the material is poisoned faster. So receive filters with identical small apertures. How many was enthusiastic shouts, publications, reports, promises of scientific and technical revolutions and protection of dissertations round this primitive invention! And here somehow at a scientific and technical exhibition I approach to the leading research institute stand on a problem of nuclear filters. Also that I see – there are no filters! I ask: where your remarkable filters? There are no filters. Have not thought up – as them to clear. After all they are instantly hammered. Each five minutes you will not assort a design and to change filtering membrane! So, of it could not think at once before to inflate a censer? But, of course, scientific degrees, posts and the huge spent means have not been returned back state. Though, undoubtedly, somewhere disposable filters on some milliliters as in syringes, also are necessary. But it after all a drop in the sea. Or here, for example, fluorescent lamps. That, their developers (Academicians!) Were so stupid, what did not understand consequences? All dumps are dirtied now by mercury, and no economy from these lamps will suffice on liquidation the negative consequences for ecology. The main thing was to take awards, ranks, posts.

Has widely got into a modern science and a direct criminal act. These are recoils, additions, the whole laboratories from dead souls, other frauds. It is natural to be engaged, it is necessary to get preliminary on certain level in administrative hierarchy. On This background on (Forgery and swindle) already and for a criminal offence do not consider the writing of false dissertations. So in the newspaper «Troitsk variant» the situation when the candidate (woman) in pre-election campaign she was openly praised by that in 90th years earned additionally a writing of such forgeries is described.

Further I result the description of some most interesting events which together, I hope, can it is live and from the different parties to illustrate an event picture in sphere of scientific activity and mutual relations of scientists with an external world.
