I don't see how someone could say that Science is ending. The only way science can "end" is by destruction of all the information we've learned up to now. Without that, people will continue to try and expand on what we already know.

It's barely getting started. All we've figured out is how to automate monotonous things, communicate instantly, help some illnesses, and learn a minuscule fraction about our environment. Very arrogant to assume we're done or can't go any further. Imagine how stupid people from 100 years ago look now. Or even 15 years ago. Having a discussion with my Dad about space is like talking to a 8 year old, who probably knows more about space than my Dad could ever conceive of, and even that is so minor a fraction of potential knowledge about our universe that it's barely significant progress at all.
