All fine, but which industry would fund research in e.g algebraic geometry or black hole physics?

- CuriouslyC 10y agoAlgebraic geometry research doesn't need funding, it just needs some spare time for people who are interested in it. Black hole physics on the theoretical side is much the same. Astronomy on the other hand probably would get short shrift in an industry based science program, since it is expensive and the gain is pretty much entirely intellectual.
