Well, even in this day and age of greatness in science & technology, do you know why scientists are so curious about black holes ? Have you ever thought that we are taught Newton’s Laws in our primary school (Laws of motion for objects – gravity to start with), but these laws don’t hold good for tiny things such as atoms, neutrons & protons etc. So we are taught Quantum Physics in high school. But we are never taught how these 2 are related (Newton’s laws & Quantum Physics). Stephen Hawkins the greatest scientist of our time has said that it would be the greatest achievement of his life if he could do that. Ad that is why the study of Black holes are important, cause Black holes get created out of a dying star, they implode within themselves due to gravity (Newton’s Laws) and then they become a NEW STAR which fuels itself through Nuclear Fusion (Quantum Physics). If we understand this we can link Science of the Big (Newton’s Laws) to Science of the Small (Quantum Physics)
Astrology, although it may look unscientific (because we are told that time and again) in my opinion is more like a application of how change in gravity (from the movement of planets in our solar system) effects a particular human being (who are essentially made up of of neutrons, protons and electrons) depending on their base configuration (planetary position in their birth chart – ie position of these planets during their birth time). Some one 5000 years back has already done the research and deduced the essence and passed it down the generations. Why don’t we benefit from it.
