What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  All that I do not know yet ofcourse! I rather like acquiring knowledge for the sake of it..achievements follow in due course!
Something controversial or provocative about this subject  Some day the scientists are going to get the shock of their lives when they begin to see more and more similarities in the physical and meta-physical scheme of things..as they burrow deeper and deeper into the cosmic structure.
What do you like about this subject?  The sheer Grandeur and scale of it. Also it helps us to know "who we are", "what made us as we are", and literally "where are we going"? There is a metaphysical aspect to these questions too!
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  People say the universe is holographic. If by that one is to understand it as "a tree is contained in its seed", then as a hindu would say..the universe is contained inside us..if only we could see!!
