Eventually you start specializing and learning more and more about a particular topic until you know as much about it as anybody else, and then you just keep going.

There's always massive open questions because every question you answer generates more questions.

This.

Which is also why most science published is hard to verify. Pretty much every topic out there is niche enough that the amount of people able to review it (let alone test it) is extremely small and they all know each other.
