The development of some protosciences can be delayed because our existing conceptual systems make us cognitively closed to some new ideas. For example, before ocean rifts and trenches were understood, it was difficult for geologists to accept plate tectonics as meaningful science. Which new areas of science are just waiting for a methodological or conceptual breakthrough? Are there some aspects of the universe that are simply beyond our technical or conceptual limitations?
