Why would you lump MWI in with real physics? And why would you lose faith about an unfalsifiable "interpretation" which isn't remotely necessary for quantum mechanics to be a valid theory (i.e. produce accurate predictions)?

astrophysicists are all popsci, they serve no useful purpose other than providing the public with colorful space pictures and plot devices for hollywood movies. astrophysics isn't like chemistry where some of the science has useful application and meaningful impact for life here on earth, if astrophysics wasn't funded by popular demand, it wouldn't exist.

Private funding for astrophysics/astronomy has been a thing since forever. Physicists demand funding for what you consider useless or they refuse to work on useful science, its all or nothing.

The truth sometimes hurts

And the truth is we don't know everything.
We're apes trying to figure out the universe. Shit takes time and is hard. We're gonna be wrong a fair few more times than we're right as we move towards understanding.

So congrats, you lost faith! Now you can admire the slow process of no longer requiring faith as humanity over coming centuries figure shit out!

good, faith is unscientific. take no assertion at face value and be prepared to investigate it yourself

the conflation of credentialism with science is an unfortunate byproduct of academia within capitalism (since it becomes a certificate selling business), so unfortunately you may need to expend personal resources to do these investigations and may see little to no return on it.

honesty and openness just aren't very competitive in capitalism when dishonesty and omission can be so profitable - it's certainly a shame that science cannot function if it allows ANY of the latter to persist, but academic institutions selling certificates can still function regardless of their scientific merits so long as they can profit off of the faith the general public has in the value of their certificates

get a load of the flamboyant multibillionaire, $12 billion is no big deal to him, when its other people's money that being ostentatiously wasted. we all know hes a penny pincher when it comes to his own personal funds, the grandiose generosity stops when other people's money runs out.
>estimates
they have a bottom line, they know ever penny that was spent, they keep it secret in order to hide their shame and embarrassment at what was promised to be an "only" $500 million of other people's money telescope. thats what they bought too, stupidly paid well more than $12 billion for $500 million worth of telescope, but who cares about the price tag when its other people's money. ZOG soientists don't to produce anyhing at all to "earn" their exorbitant paychecks, stupid soience midwits in school don't pay taxes at all, they don't care how their greed for ever bigger and more grandiose free flamboyant toys affects the people paying the bills. they just wanna drool and look at colorful space blogs and imagine themselves as "enlightened" or some gay shit
