How would you reply to the question: "What's new in science?"?

Today, my dad asked me this question. It’s a funny question because he’s classically religious and classically non-scientific. I never expected him to ask me something like this and I would have to say I failed the scientific community as a whole with my weak-assed response. He really asked me sincerely and openly. I was caught off guard I guess.. I did mention that I have a list of things that have amazed me lately which I feel I have no one to share with… sigh.. but that was about all.. :(

How would you answer the question?
